Unfortunately Tom didn't make the 53 man roster but hopefully will be on the practice squad or picked up by another team.

The Redskins have signed USD alum Tom Compton from practice squad to active 53-man roster. Offensive tackle was drafted in sixth round.

Tom is backup LT for the Washington Redskins and is in on FG/XPT attempts. Today he also played several snaps near goal line as an extra LT and made some nice run blocks. The last few plays he helped Washington score a TD to win in OT against SD.

I was watching the end of that game, it was good to see him in there. He did move the line on a couple of those blocks. I didn't see the whole game, so I was wondering how much he played. Thanks for the info, sdyotefan.
Fight, South Dakota!

I did NFL Redzone and from what I saw he was in the last two goal line situations so about 5-6 plays besides FGs/XPTs. He's highly thought of by Washington. Last yr they moved him from the practice squad to 53 squad to better protect him from other teams.

Anyone see Compton just run that pass route (I assume his first) in the endzone? There were 2 other wide open Redskins, otherwise it would've been cool to see a TD pass go his way!

From Profootballtalk.com
"The Redskins also announced that they have signed right tackle Tom Compton to a one-year deal. Compton started nine games for Washington last season and was set to become a restricted free agent next month."

Tom played a lot today again as last week at TE/ROT in Washington's win today. So Tyler Starr and Tom both played today.

Tom now with Atlanta along with Tyler Starr, played well at ROT for the 3rd Q.

Tom had a very good game playing almost 3 Qs at OLT which included a key block on a sweep that freed the RB for a 30 yd TD!
