Free Agent DT Shaun Rogers Visits With Chiefs, Redskins

The Cleveland Browns last week released DT Shaun Rogers and he quickly became a hot commodity on the open market. There were as many as 10 teams at one point believed to be interested in him and he took three visits that we know of including to the Washington Redskins, Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that, as of now, Rogers has no more visits scheduled. That doesn’t mean he can’t take more but at the moment there aren’t any more scheduled.

The Cleveland Browns released DT Shaun Rogers last week and it didn’t take long for him to draw interest around the league. According to reports, Rogers visited the Washington Redskins last week and now news comes out that Rogers is visiting the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday.

Interest in Rogers is high because he’s one of a few attractive free agents on the market. With the current labor situation in the NFL, there hasn’t been much player movement. Because of that, Rogers is an attractive commodity with upwards of 10 teams contacting him after his release, according to reports.

As an unrestricted free agent, Rogers is eligible to sign with anyone until March 4, the expiration of the CBA. On that date, there will be no more player movement. Because of the uncertainty that lies ahead, some teams have shied away from doing any new contracts. It remains to be seen if the Redskins will operate that way.
