Chris Culliver to sign with Redskins

— -- The Washington Redskins have reached a four-year deal with cornerback Chris Culliver worth up to $32 million, a source confirmed to ESPN.com's John Keim.

In his first full season as a starter, the San Francisco 49ers' third-round pick of the 2011 draft finished with a flourish after missing the 2013 season with a torn ACL.

Per Pro Football Focus, Culliver's plus-10.8 coverage grade over the final 13 games ranked fifth-best among cornerbacks, and his allowing one catch per 13.3 coverage snaps ranked sixth among cornerbacks with 300-plus coverage snaps. Also, he had a 50.7 percent catch rate on the season.

The 26-year-old Culliver, whose career-high four interceptions came in the 49ers' last seven games, has had off-the-field issues with the Niners, from his anti-gay statements at Super Bowl XLVII, to his posting offensive terms about women on his Instagram account, to his arrest last March on hit-and-run and brass knuckles charges.
