Redskins sign WR Cody Latimer, a former second-round pick

The Redskins are adding Cody Latimer to the roster, giving Dwayne Haskins another weapon opposite Terry McLaurin.

The Washington Redskins have added an established wide receiver to their depth chart, signing Cody Latimer to a contract, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

Latimer was a second-round pick who has spent time with both the Denver Broncos and New York Giants. Now he will join a young receiving corp in Washington and line up opposite Terry McLaurin.

Latimer was drafted by the Broncos in 2014, and he spent four seasons there, before leaving for New York. In his career, he has six touchdowns and 935 total receiving yards. He may not be the best receiver that the Redskins could have signed, but he has an abundance of experience in the league, and though his contract details have yet to be released, it will likely be on a very team-friendly deal.
