Deon Yelder is a sneaky solid addition to the TE room Photo by Brett Carlsen/Getty Images Earlier this week, Ron Rivera told us he was going to be adding some veteran free agents to Washington’s roster, and he’s spared no time in doing so. On Wednesday, the team added an extra cornerback and tight end to the competitive mix for this offseason. We've signed CB Linden Stephens and TE Deon Yelder— Washington Football Team (@WashingtonNFL) May 6, 2021 A number of folks have written these two off, and others stopping by for team visits, as “camp bodies,” just a bunch of JAGs to fill out the 90-man roster. But, as one looks a little more closely, an interesting pattern develops. Most of the players discussed probably aren’t competing for starting positions at this point, but several of them - including Deon Yelder, who will be the subject of this piece - very much appear to be legitimately in the running to serve as depth upgrades.
