Chris Baker To Sign Three Year Deal With Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The bleeding just keeps continuing for the Washington Redskins. After losing Pierre Garcon to the 49ers on Wednesday, the team lost two players to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday. The first, DeSean Jackson, had widely been considered a candidate to sign elsewhere, so that was not a huge surprise. However, the departure of stud defensive end Chris Baker will greatly hurt them, as he inked a deal with the Bucs as well.

Baker has long been the best interior lineman on the Redskins team. Playing the 3-4 defensive end position, Baker was one of the few players who saw success last season on the defensive unit.
