Morgan Moses Fantasy

Former Washington Football Team offensive tackle Morgan Moses is signing a one-year deal worth $3.6 million in base salary with the New York Jets on Friday, according to a source. Moses has never made a Pro Bowl, but he's coming off arguably the best season of his career and should be an upgrade over the Jets current right tackle George Fant. The 30-year-old has been heavily penalized in his career, but last year was an exception. It will be interesting to see how Moses transitions from Washington's inside-zone run scheme to Gang Green's scheme that is expected to include a lot of outside stretch-zone runs. They'll also need Moses to be solid in pass-protection in front of rookie quarterback Zach Wilson. There's also the possibility that Moses could move inside to guard, but it's more unlikely.

Former Washington Football Team offensive tackle Morgan Moses is scheduled to visit with the Chicago Bears on Tuesday, according to a source. Moses also visited with the New York Jets last week and could end up taking more visits. Both the Bears and Jets drafted franchise signal-callers this year and are looking to give them more protection, and Moses would be a strong offensive line addition for either team. The Washington Football Team and Moses had a tumultuous ending when they released him after he was granted permission to seek a trade. He's coming off one of his best seasons in the NFL, and the veteran right tackle hasn't missed a start since he landed in a full-time role in 2015.

The Washington Football Team officially released offensive tackle Morgan Moses on Thursday after a trade was always unlikely. Fellow offensive lineman Geron Christian is also being released. Moses, 30, ranked 15th in offensive grade in 2020 by Pro Football Focus, although he allowed a career-high 41 pressures in pass protection. However, he should still carry plenty of value on the open market as a tackle that has started every game since his second year in the NFL back in 2015. Washington decided to part ways after they signed Charles Leno Jr. in free agency and traded for guard Ereck Flowers. The team also selected tackle Samuel Cosmi in the second round last month. The two releases will save Washington around $5.9 million in salary cap space in 2021.
