Washington Redskins Player Profiles: Terrance Knighton

Terrance Knighton was the splashiest free agent signed by new GM Scot McCloughan, and he could very well be the best signing of the offseason.

Position: Defensive Tackle

Height: 6'3" Weight: 354 lbs

College: Temple

Drafted: Third round, 72nd overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars (2009)

Terrance Knighton, the land mass known as Pot Roast, signed with the Washington Redskins in March, immediately upgrading a defensive line that has been spotty at best in recent seasons. He'll team with fellow newcomer Stephen Paea and returning defensive end Jason Hatcher to form an imposing front line that should make life much easier on the eight defenders behind them.
