After finding out about his trade to the Kansas City Chiefs, cornerback Kendall Fuller said the message from the Redskins’ management and coaches was clear: “All of them were upset I had to go.”
On Jan. 31, the Redskins agreed to ship Fuller and a third-round pick for quarterback Alex Smith. Fuller, a promising young corner, was a heavy cost, but the Chiefs insisted on his inclusion. The trade can’t be official until March 14.
Appearing on a podcast, Fuller told ESPN’s Adam Schefter he met with the Redskins the next day to discuss the trade.
