The Washington Redskins signed D.J. Hackett Wednesay to replace Roydell Williams as a contender for the No. 5 receiver spot. Williams was waived by the Redskins with a a finger injury on the same day.
Hackett used to play with the Seattle Seahawks for three years when current Redskins head coach Jim Zorn was an assistant in the Eagles. Zorn said that the Redskins chose Hackett because he knows the terminology of offense, although he was plagued by injuries and caught only 13 passes for 181 yards when he played with the Panthers as free-agent in 2008.
Williams lost the chance of contending for the fifth spot because he broke his left pinkie in practice on Sunday.
