I’m hearing from sources around the league that the Bears, Redskins and Raiders all have at least some interest in free agents LB Lofa Tatupu and CB Kelvin Hayden.
Tatupu, 28, was released by the Seahawks last week after six seasons in Seattle, during most of which he served as the defensive captain. The three-time Pro Bowler played in all 16 games last season, though he needed surgery on both knees this offseason.
Hayden was released by the Colts last week. The 28-year-old had been a starter for the past four seasons, although missed time each of the past three seasons due to injuries. Hayden played in 11 games last season, registering 61 total tackles with two interceptions and eight passes defensed. He was scheduled to meet with the Redskins this week.
