Hackett is at practice on Wednesday. It appears he has been signed by the team, but no official word yet. Hackett is a 5-year veteran who played for the Carolina Panthers last season after four years with the Seattle Seahawks. He played for current Redskins head coach Jim Zorn during his time in Seattle. Hackett participated in Redskins mini-camp in early May, so he has a degree of familiarity with the offense. Hackett has 118 career receptions for 1,575 yards and nine touchdowns. Last year, he was a reserve with Carolina and logged 13 catches for 181 yards. Hackett was a fifth-round draft pick by the Seahawks in the 2004 NFL Draft. mredskins 08-05-2009, 10:01 AM Rather seen them get a OL guy. =( johno 08-05-2009, 10:07 AM Rather seen them get a OL guy. =( ditto, we already have a healthy competition going on at wr... dmek25 08-05-2009, 10:08 AM we definitely have enough younger guys at that spot. but i guess coach has some back ground with Hackett freddyg12 08-05-2009, 10:10 AM Good signing. R. Williams is out for 4-6 weeks so Hackett takes his spot & is about as close a replacement you can find in terms of age, experience.

CRedskinsRule 08-05-2009, 10:16 AM from the training camp updates -- 9:08 a.m. ET Another New Redskin The Redskins have signed first-year defensive tackle Michael Marquardt, the team has announced. Marquardt, 6-3 and 297 pounds, has had an NFL stint with the Cincinnati Bengals. He played college football at Arizona State. In two years as a starter, he collected 48 tackles, nine tackles for a loss and 3.5 sacks. we waived Roydell Ruhskins 08-05-2009, 10:19 AM per Redskins blog, we also have a guy michael marquant from Eagles squad, but I can't find anything on him. Anyone know who he is? Sounds like just another camp body. Schneed10 08-05-2009, 10:25 AM This WR move should have little to no impact on the cap situation. Roydell and Hackett should offset one another. The only scenario in which the cap is even a factor anymore is if we decide to bring in an experienced OT (ahem, Runyan). SmootSmack 08-05-2009, 10:38 AM Well, I guess we did give Hackett a call (http://www.thewarpath.net/572206-post45.html) Mixed feelings on this. I like Hackett when healthy, but that's not often. And I don't know what he offers as a special teamer
