Chris Baker Wants To Return To The Redskins As He Hits Free Agency

The Redskins defensive end finished his fifth season in the league to become an unrestricted free agent, but said he'd like to extend his career in Washington.

For the first time in his professional career, Chris Baker is set to become an unrestricted free agent once the new league year begins in about seven weeks. But the veteran defensive end would rather have his long-term future secured with the Redskins than face the uncertainty of free agency.

“It’s a little difficult for me being that it is a contract year for me,” Baker said of the season.
