Redskins announce Hayward signing; ex-Steelers safety Ryan Clark among free agents to visit
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Washington Redskins have announced the signing of free agent special teams standout Adam Hayward.
The Redskins also Wednesday prepared to host three other free agents — safety Ryan Clark, cornerback Corey Graham and defensive end Antonio Smith — as they continued a modest approach to free agency despite money to spend after a 3-13 season.
Hayward agreed to terms shortly after free agency began on Tuesday, along with receiver Andre Roberts and guard Shawn Lauvao. The Redskins also re-signed linebacker Perry Riley and receiver Santana Moss.
