The Washington Redskins announced Wednesday that they’ve signed DL Montori Hughes to a futures contract for the 2018 season.
As of now, the Redskins have signed 13 players to futures deals including:
- OL Alex Balducci
- DL Tavaris Barnes
- TE Chris Bazile
- RB Kenny Hilliard
- OL Cameron Jefferson
- OL John Kling
- LB Alex McCalister
- LB Cassanova McKinzy
- DL Ondre Pipkins
- DB James Sample
- S Orion Stewart
- QB Stephen Morris
- DL Montori Hughes
Futures deals are essentially camp invites that will give players the opportunity to compete for roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp.
Hughes, 27, is a former fifth-round pick of the Colts back in 2013. He lasted just over two years in Indianapolis before he was waived coming out of the preseason in 2016.
Hughes was on and off of the Giants’ roster in 2016 and signed a futures contract with the Chiefs last January. Unfortunately, Kansas City elected to cut him loose during the preseason.
In 2016, Hughes was active for two games but did not record a statistic.
