With so much news swirling around about the Washington Redskins defensive coordinator opening, and under-the-radar move occurred on Monday. The Redskins added another cornerback to their roster on a reserve/future contract. The man was Tharold Simon, a former member of the Seattle Seahawks who most recently played for the Arizona Cardinals. ESPN’s Field Yates broke the news via his Twitter account.
Simon was once considered to be a potential packed member of the Legion of Boom. However, he never panned out for the Seahawks as he was constantly torched in coverage. Still, he has the potential to develop into a solid contributor, and Washington could offer him a chance to do that.
