Orlando Scandrick signed a two-year contract with the Washington Redskins back in March, worth up to $10 million. It was a move that was thought to bring some stability to the secondary. Unfortunately, Jay Gruden and the Redskins don’t see it that way anymore.
Scandrick was originally brought in to replace Kendall Fuller, who was lost in the Alex Smith trade. Scandrick was going to fill the slot corner spot, a place where Fuller previously thrived. All this was done before the draft so Washington could take some pressure off of themselves.
According to Jay Gruden, the younger cornerbacks have impressed at camp and the coaching staff wants to give them more reps and opportunities.
