NFL reporter Ian Rapoport has word that the Washington Redskins have added some young competition at linebacker in the form of Gary Johnson, a former undrafted free agent signing with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs originally landed Johnson as a rookie free agent after he wasn’t selected in the draft’s seven rounds as part of a heralded UDFA class. Johnson drew praise for his tackling ability and experience at the University of Texas, and the Chiefs hoped he might come in and help plug some holes in terms of overall talent and depth at linebacker.
