The Washington Redskins have signed right tackle Sean Locklear, a free agent, who last season started 15 out of 16 games for the Seattle Seahawks.
Locklear, a 6-foot-4, 310-pound eighth-year pro, arrived at Redskins Park on Thursday night and signed his deal Friday afternoon.
“It’s a good opportunity,” Locklear said. “I’m glad to be here. It’s a chance to come in, compete and see what happens. I was excited. It’s a chance to come back to the east coast. I’ve been in Seattle my whole seven years, so now to be able to come back East.”
The 30-year-old North Carolina State product entered the league as a guard, and in 2005 made the switch to tackle. Locklear has started 51 out of 54 games for Seattle since 2007.
Like the signing as the guy is a proven vet and provides much needed vet depth at the O line.
