Rocket442Olds Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=25058 The Redskins have re-signed free agent safety Vernon Fox, the team announced on Friday. Fox originally joined the Redskins in August 2006 after he was released by the Detroit Lions. Midseason, he entered the starting lineup after Troy Vincent was slowed by a hamstring injury. Fox started six games and proved to be a capable performer, logging 42 tackles (31 solo) and one interception, off Jake Delhomme in the Redskins' 17-13 win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 12. Fox, a fifth-year veteran, also played a key role on special teams. He finished with 26 tackles on punt and kickoff coverage, including six tackles and a blocked punt in the Week 16 game at St. Louis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMetal Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Great, one less thing to worry about. Solid safety depth now with Fox, Prioleau and er...Archuleta. Oh crap, we still need a starter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyndorf25 Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Good re-signing. Fox was a worthy contributor especially with AA still getting his bearings here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#98QBKiller Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Good job. Fox is a solid depth player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the burgundy and gold Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 its good to keep players in the system especially back ups. A solid backup who knows the system and organization can be a huge help. Now we just need someone for him to backup for.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Great news, I was worried about Fox getting away. Say what you will, but he had to beat out a host of other players for that spot, hes at least a serviceable backup. Can you IMAGINE how good our safeties would be if we kept Clark? We would have Taylor, Prielou(I can never spell it), Clark and Fox. How nice would that have been? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Shotgun Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Great move - I like Fox (except that I keep getting him confused with the former President of Mexico Vincente Fox). Solid depth player who can fill in as a starter and play admirably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
