They just signed defensive back Ardarius Washington to a one-year deal worth $3 million. At the same time, their special team stand out, Dane Belt and plans to join the rival New York Jets. Washington brings ties from the Ravens organization, where he started as an undrafted free agent out of TCU back in 2021. He's a 5'8, 180-pound player who shines on special teams too. Over his career, he's played in 29 games with 11 starts, racking up 85 tackles, two interceptions and 10 pass breakups. He handles roles of box safety, deep safety, and even in the slot. Last season, Aetorna Killie's kept him out early, but he bounced back for the final four games with a sack, forced fumble, and seven tackles. Now healthy, he's set to fill a key gap.
