ESPN is reporting that Donovan McNabb is lobbying the Redskins to consider signing TO. They will probably exhaust all other options first, but it sort of makes sense in that TO is actually a good fit for them. They need a bigger veteran WR who can be a consistent red zone target to pair with the smaller Santana Moss, whose strength is catching deep balls, and the other less experienced WRs on the roster.

Eagles beat writer Les Bowen thinks there is a lot less to this rumor than what ESPN is reporting, which would not be a surprise, given their poor track record reporting on the McNabb trade rumors. But if it happens, the two Eagles-Redskins games will be even more interesting next season. We'll know when the circus comes to Philadelphia when the NFL releases the 2010 schedule at 7pm tonight.
