Quick, 27, was a second round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. He has played all five of his NFL seasons for the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams. Quick's best season came in 2016, when he had 564 yards and three touchdowns on 41 receptions, all career-high numbers.

He is likely to fit in as a depth piece behind Pryor and Jamison Crowder. The Redskins also drafted Josh Doctson in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft, who should also see an expanded role.
