The former LSU safety was signed by the Giants as an UDFA in 2002, and played with the Redskins for two seasons before becoming a Pittsburgh Steeler. The hard hitting veteran safety has 827 tackles, 15 interceptions, five forced fumbles and 3.5 sacks over his 12 year career.
Clark had a meeting with the Redskins a few weeks ago, and just returned from a visit with the Seahawks last week. The Jets, Ravens, and Panthers were among other teams who expressed interest in him. I would assume that Clark will try to wear #21 with the Redskins, in honor of Sean Taylor.
The outspoken defensive back will surely be missed, and his monster hits on opponents were the things of legend. Thanks for the memories, #25.
