NFL-National Football League roundup

April 2 (The Sports Xchange) - DeSean Jackson can earn $24 million on the three-year deal he signed Tuesday night with the Washington Redskins, a contract that will pay the former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver $16 million guaranteed. Jackson was released by the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday just two years after he signed a five-year contract extension worth $48 million. - - Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice, indicted on a felony aggravated assault charge, is scheduled to be arraigned April 28 at Atlantic County Superior Court in New Jersey. - - The Miami Dolphins signed unrestricted free agent offensive lineman Jason Fox to a one-year contract, the team announced Wednesday. The 6-foot-6 (1.98m), 314-pound (142kg) Fox joins Miami after spending the past four seasons with the Detroit Lions. - - The Pittsburgh Steelers signed wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey to a one-year contract, the team announced Wednesday. He had 29 catches for 309 yards and a touchdown with the Indianapolis Colts last season. - - The New England Patriots, who have the 29th overall draft selection, are scheduled to host quarterbacks Johnny Manziel and Teddy Bridgewater on pre-draft visits at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday, according to reports. NFL teams are allowed to invite 30 prospects to their facility each year before the draft, so the visits are nothing out of the ordinary, even though Manziel and Bridgewater are projected to be selected well before New England's scheduled first pick. - - Defensive end Robert Ayers signed a two-year, $4 million deal with the New York Giants. Ayers, who posted a career-high 5.5 sacks with the Broncos in 2013, was the 18th overall pick in 2009 and spent his first five seasons in Denver. - - The Denver Broncos agreed to terms with free agent center Will Montgomery on a one-year contract, the team announced.
