Washington signs Jerrell Powe

The Redskins were busy on the defensive line this offseason and they haven’t stopped looking for bodies to add to the mix up front.

The NFL’s daily transaction report for Monday revealed that team has signed defensive tackle Jerrell Powe, who spent the 2014 season with the Texans. He played in all 16 games, started three times, and recorded 10 tackles. He played 12 games in three years with the Chiefs before making the move to Houston.

Powe joins Terrance Knighton, Stephen Paea and Ricky Jean Francois as veteran additions to the defensive line this offseason as the Redskins have worked to remake their front seven under new coordinator Joe Barry.
