CB Rodgers-Cromartie unretires, joins Redskins

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie's retirement didn't last long. The corner, who announced his retirement during last season, signed a one-year deal with the Washington Redskins, reuniting with former teammate Landon Collins and providing veteran insurance.

Rodgers-Cromartie had announced his retirement via Instagram in October after spending seven games with the Oakland Raiders. But he had said on March 7 that he wanted to continue playing and the Redskins will provide that opportunity.

The Redskins had pursued him last offseason as well, but Rodgers-Cromartie wanted to wait and Washington instead signed Orlando Scandrick. The Redskins released Scandrick in camp.
