Pro Football Talk is reporting that the Washington Redskins have reached an agreement with former Buccaneers CBย E.J. Biggers.
Washington has been linked to a number of defensive backs in the last week or so, but limited cap space has taken them out of the running for some of their top targets.
Biggers, 25, isย a young, costย efficient player whoย graded out as an above average cornerback for the Bucs last season, according to Pro Football Focus. Former Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris is now the Redskins’ secondary coach, so there’s a good chance he helped lure Biggers to Washington.
Tampa Bay was reportedly interested in re-signing him, but they’ve also been linked to a number of cornerbacks and have plenty of cap space to sign one of the best available options or trade for Darrelle Revis.
We had Biggersย listed as the No. 31 player in ourย recently updatedย Top 50 Free Agentsย list.
