FILE - In this Nov. 24, 2016, file photo, Washington Redskins cornerback Deshazor Everett (22) walks along the team bench area during an NFL football game against the Dallas Cowboys, in Arlington, Texas. Everett’s chance has come. And in the most unexpected way possible. A special-teams ace who scrapped and clawed his way onto the Redskins’ roster two years ago during training camp, only to be immediately cut the next day, Everett expected about the same in 2017. Instead, the sudden, shocking desire by Redskins safety Su’a Cravens to retire from the NFL at age 22 has thrust Everett into the starting lineup Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles and possibly longer.
