Brandon Scherff has no intentions of leaving Washington over contract

Washington veteran right guard Brandon Scherff met with media members on Wednesday morning to talk about all things Washington Football coming up in the 2020 season, and he started the conversation with something that fans will love to hear early on.

It was about his contract situation, and what his thoughts were on being franchise tagged and unable to come to terms on a new long-term deal with Ron Rivera and the new coaching staff. According to Scherff, this is not a big deal to him, as his end goal remains the same: staying in Washington for the rest of his career.

Brandon Scherff said he's not worrying about his contract right now. He's said before he wants to end his career in Washington. As far as working out a long-term deal, the tag gives him another year to achieve that.

Scherff was drafted by Washington back in 2015, and he has risen to become one of the top guards in the NFL. With his contract up this past offseason, a franchise tag was placed on him that will pay him handsomely for the 2020 season while a new contract is figured out.

If you had any doubts that Scherff would stick around into the future, this should calm all of those fears. Scherff still plans to be a member of the Washington Football Team for life.
