REDSKINS SIGN OL CODY BOOTH

LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. – The Washington Redskins announced today that they have signed free agent offensive lineman Cody Booth. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Booth (6-4, 292) originally entered the NFL with the Chicago Bears as a college free agent on May 11, 2014. After being waived by the Bears on Aug. 1, 2014, he spent portions of the 2014 season and the 2015 offseason with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Booth played collegiately at Temple from 2010-13. He converted to left tackle as a senior after spending the first three seasons of his collegiate career at tight end.

Booth, 24, attended Penn Manor H.S. in Lancaster, Pa., where he was a two-time All-Lancaster selection while contributing at wide receiver, tight end and defensive end. He was born April 22, 1991.

Confused by this move? We were also confused as to why Ty Nsekhe was signed. Goodbye Tom Compton.

292 is kinda light for tackle I'd think....maybe jumbo package TE?

Nsekhe though is 6'6 and 320.

I wonder if a 292 tackle can survive in the NFL these days.

Of course if he is here for camp reps, that's fine.
