The Redskins announced that they have signed free agent offensive lineman Chris Campbell.
The Packers originally signed Campbell, who is 6-5, 328, as a college free agent out of Eastern Illinois in 2010. He has been on and off of their practice squad for the last two seasons. He was last released by Green Bay on May 14.
Judging by his size, Campbell is likely to play tackle for the Redskins. Both of their starting tackles, Jammal Brown and Trent Williams, are sidelined with injuries at the moment.
To make room for Campbell on the roster, the Redskins waived/injured rookie free agent receiver Darius Hanks.
I like this add a lot for a little addition. A big, and especially young, lineman would help regardless of prior skill. Now that we finally have a QB we need to do nothing but find lineman to protect him.
