The Washington Redskins are set to have two of their key receivers hit the free agent market. Will either Pierre Garcon or DeSean Jackson return to the team in 2017?

The 2017 offseason has thus far been full of turmoil for the Washington Redskins. It seems like every position of importance for the leadership structure has been questioned, while their quarterback has been non-committal to staying past this season. In addition, their general manager is away from the team dealing with a family matter. All of this is coming to a head just before free agency.

Because of that, Bruce Allen and the newly extended head coach Jay Gruden are going to have to lead the charge on the free agent market. One of the biggest questions surrounding the team is how they are going to deal with their top two receivers hitting the market.

Pierre Garcon and DeSean Jackson served as option 1A and 1B for Kirk Cousins last year, but both are scheduled to hit he market. With a couple of young, promising talents in Jamison Crowder and Josh Doctson, the team may not want to re-sign both players. In fact, they could opt to sign neither. With that in mind, here are the latest reports coming out about each player.
