LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. — The Washington Redskins announced Wednesday that they have signed free-agent quarterback Rex Grossman. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora reports it is a one-year deal.

Grossman, 29, has played in 37 career games, with 31 starts, in his seven-year career. He spent last season with Houston, where he worked with current Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, who served in the same capacity for the Texans.

Prior to his stint in Houston, Grossman played the previous six years with Chicago, who selected him in the first round (No. 22 overall) of the 2003 NFL Draft . In 2006, Grossman helped take the Bears to a 13-3 record and their first Super Bowl appearance since 1985.
