Do the Redskins have the cap space needed to sign Tre Boston to a free agent contract?

Let me start right here: I have not heard a single report from anyone, anywhere that suggests that the Redskins are looking at signing Tre Boston or any other veteran free agent safety this off season.

Let’s think of this as simply a thought-exercise... a “what if” kind of thing.

The Redskins seem to have a roster hole at safety; Tre Boston is looking for a job. Why not imagine the team and the player getting together?

The key idea is to figure out if the Redskins can still use veteran free agency as a roster tool in 2019, or whether they are too hobbled by lack of cap space.
