Redskins Sign Ex-Pro Bowler Mathis

ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Redskins added thier first free agent of the offseason on Friday, signing receiver and former Pro Bowl kick returner Jerome Mathis.

Mathis made the Pro Bowl as a returner with the Houston Texans in 2005, but he was injured for most of the last two seasons. He became a free agent this year when the Texans opted not to make him a qualifying offer at the end of the season.

As a rookie in 2005, Mathis led the NFL in kickoff return touchdowns (two) and yardage (1,542) on 54 returns. He has six career receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown.

Redskins' first free agent addition is returner Mathis

Yes, he had misdemeanor citation when when his pit bull was behaving aggressively and chewed threw his fence, and an assault case for allegedly punching his pregnant wife.
