Fred Davis signs Tender
There you have it.
Davis signs franchise tender
What that essentially means is that Davis signed a one-year guaranteed contract worth approximately $5.4 million.
He could have decided not to sign the tender. He still would have been bound to the Redskins as their franchise player but he would not have to attend any mandatory team practices such as minicamp or training camp. The risk that Davis would run in doing this would be that the team could withdraw the tender at any time.
Davis was in the midst of having a breakout season last year when he was suspended for the last four games for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. At the time of his suspension he had 59 receptions for 796 yards and three touchdowns.
Although Davis and the team could still negotiate a long-term contract that is said to be unlikely given last year’s suspension. He will likely have to show that he is not at risk of getting slapped with a future suspension.

What? The Smeagols' history is littered with FAs they let go rather than pay.

You just picked what might be the worst example of "taking care of their own" in the NFL.

Both are essentially going nowhere and both are under a microscope
they are now experiencing the Redskins version of ZERO tolerance
HOPEFULLY these 2 have seen the light and will make a huge effort to show they're really sorry about letting themselves and their team down - BIG TIME
OTHERWISE .... you're outa here

Nobody really expects the Redskins to do well - 8 wins is considered a winning season for Dan Snyder's Redskins
Redskins should fire Bruce Allen & try a different way of managing this franchise
Thankfully, Kirk Cousins is no longer the QB

Well the Browns signed Davis ...
but, NOT the Davis they really wanted - they signed Kellen Davis

I think we can be pretty sure that Fred will be playing with Robert again

NOTHING is "pretty sure" until the ink is drying on the contract.
