by Brett Conway
With the suspension of Chris Culliver, the Washington Redskins decided to add some veteran depth to there secondary. Will Blackmon’s signing was announced yesterday afternoon.

A Boston College attendee Blackmon has been on the Green Bay Packers, New York Giants where he won a Super Bowl in 2011, Arizona Rattlers (Arena football), Seattle Seahawks where he won another Super Bowl in 2013, and finally the Jacksonville Jaguars last season.
This signing may not be a flashy signing, but it will prove wise to add depth and experience to that Washington Redskins secondary. Will Blackmon will be a veteran presence who knows how to win. After Chris Culliver comes back watch for Will Blackmon to play a lot of corner in the slot and in dime packages.
