The Redskins announced another free agent signing today, TE Sean Ryan, most recently of the Kansas City Chiefs, but also formerly of the San Francisco 49ers, New Orleans Saints, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, and Dallas Cowboys.

When this news broke on Twitter, the most popular question was a frantic-sounding “But what about Cooley?!?!?”, so let me say this: The signing of Sean Ryan should not cause any worry about Chris Cooley or Fred Davis.

Despite what the NFL.com video above would indicate, Ryan is more of a blocking tight end in the Todd Yoder mold; if you want to worry that Ryan is filling someone’s position, Yoder — currently a free agent — is a more likely candidate than either of the other two.
