Football Team's Darryl Roberts: Signs deal with Washington

Roberts signed a contract with the Washington Football Team on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Roberts played the most prominent role of his NFL career for the Jets in 2019, a season in which he posted 63 tackles (58 solo), one interception and six defensed passes in 13 games. Roberts saw a reduced role while with the Lions in 2020, recording 34 solo tackles. While the 30-year-old has served as a hybrid safety/corner in the past, it's presently unclear how he'll be incorporated into Washington's defensive plans.
