They've already signed Rocky Asin and Christian Easian, and now they've added Roger McCreary on a one-year deal. This comes amid ongoing health worries at the position for the team. These moves make sense given the injury history among their current corners. McCreary, who will be 26 at the start of the 2026 season, brings solid experience from recent years. Fans and analysts see this as a savvy step to add depth without big risks. His youth fits perfectly for a short-term free agent pick-up, helping stabilize the secondary right away.
