The Washington Redskins announced Friday that they signed cornerback Aaron Colvin after placing running back Derrius Guice (knee) and defensive lineman Caleb Brantley (foot) on injured reserve.
Colvin was released by the Houston Texans on Tuesday after struggling in Houston's 30-28 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football.
In addition to allowing two touchdown passes, Colvin allowed wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. to make a last-second catch, which set up the game-winning 58-yard field goal by Saints kicker Wil Lutz.
