Redskins continue to add running back depth by signing Peyton Barber

Last season, the Washington Redskins had a lot of solid depth at the running back position in the lead-up to the 2019 season. And it appears that they’ll be doing the same in 2020.

The Redskins once again dipped into the free agent pool to add Peyton Barber to their team. Barber went undrafted out of Auburn in 2016 and spent the first four seasons of his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler was first to break the news, but it was NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport who came in with the contract details. Barber’s pact will be worth $3 million over two years with just $600K guaranteed.
