Just prior to free agency opening this year, veteran linebacker Pernell McPhee was released by the Chicago Bears.
While being a free agent is a stressful time in any player’s life, McPhee remained relaxed as he waited to find out where his next destination would be for the 2018 season.
“I really didn’t have any pressure,” McPhee told Redskins.com. “I recently purchased my grandma a house, I’ve just been fixing that up so I’ve really been kind of relaxed all the time. So it was really chill.”
Over the last week, McPhee had visited with both the Redskins and the Atlanta Falcons.
