The Squirrel Signeth: Former Bengals WR Kelley Washington Signs With the Eagles

This is for you old nostalgic veterans. Former Bengals wide receiver Kelley Washington signed a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles over the weekend. Washington spent four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, playing 44 games and recording 72 receptions for 893 yards and nine touchdowns. Since leaving the Bengals, Washington played two years with the Patriots, doing a great Jerome Simpson impression, recording only one reception in his two seasons with New England.

Last year, with the Ravens, Washington recorded a career high in receptions (34) and yards receiving (431). However, in his first two seasons with the Bengals, he recorded seven touchdowns, which he hasn't come to close to replicating since.

All that's fine and good. But really, the truth is that this gives me a great excuse for posting the best touchdown dance (for the millionth time) in the history of touchdown dances.

Ha ha!

Good one.

He’s always open. He catches a lot of balls. He’s un-guardable, no matter how old he is

Good signing for the Eagles

Washington is one of the better special teamers in the league. As Football Outsiders wrote, Ozzie Newsome made a mistake keeping a guy like Mark Clayon instead of KW.

it cracks me up to hear about washington’s great special teams play because the biggest complaint about him from the bengals coaching staff was that he wasn’t willing to play special teams.

Best. Touchdown Dance. Ever.

Except for maybe Chad’s Riverdance at Chicago in ’05. That was terrific too.

the squirrel wins based on washington’s commitment to it. think about it, he did the squirrel and said to himself, “yep, that’s it. why mess with perfection?” and it is perfection, because it is so fun to do.

I would like it if Chad went back to some dancing.
