The Washington Redskins added depth to their talented defensive front on Monday when they signed free agent Jerrell Powe. Powe spent the 2014 season with the Texans as a rotational player who started three games. Before that, he spent time with the Chiefs.

Powe is likely to remain a rotational player with the Redskins. The team brought in big ticket free agents Terrance Knighton and Stephen Paea to join a three-man front that already included defensive end Jason Hatcher. Powe will provide depth and experience after playing in a similar defensive scheme.
