Offensive tackle Donald Penn is headed to the east coast for the 2019 season.

On Wednesday ESPN reported that the 36 year old signed a one year, $2.03 million contract with the Washington Redskins, including a $250,000 signing bonus and $250,000 guaranteed.

The veteran offensive lineman was originally signed by the Minnesota Vikings as an undrafted rookie in 2006 where he was quickly released and signed by the Buccaneers where he would go on to play for eight seasons. The 3x Pro Bowler would sign with the Raiders in 2014 where he would spend the next five seasons before his release in March of this year.

In his 13 year NFL career the 6’4 315 pound Penn has played in 178 games, starting all but four and amassed six receptions for 26 yards and four receiving touchdowns.
