The Washington Redskins continue signing players to help their secondary by signing former Minnesota Vikings defensive back Cedric Griffin, according to a post by Evan Silva on Pro Football Talk.

ESPN's Josina Anderson reports that the Washington Redskins have agreed to terms with defensive back Cedric Griffin on a one-year contract with a max value of $2.5 million.

The Redskins have been needing some secondary help this offseason. By the look of this contract, its not a severe amount of money that they are parting with to sign Griffin so a low risk signing like this could really help the Redskins in the long term.
