A Miami judge has postponed the trial of the four men who have been accused of slaying Redskins' safety Sean Taylor until August, according to Associated Press. Defense attorneys and prosecutors said Friday that they weren't prepared for the trial to begin April 7 as initially planned.

The NFL?s Thursday night season opener will match the Giants and the Redskins, with the game possibly starting an hour-and-a-half earlier to avoid clashing with the Republican National Convention, as reported by the Associated Press. The game is now scheduled for 8:30 p.m. EDT on September 4, the concluding night of the Republican convention, and will be televised by NBC. League spokesman Greg Aiello said Wednesday that the NFL is talking with the network about changing the game?s starting time to 7:00 p.m.

The Washington Redskins on Monday re-signed punter Derrick Frost, according to a Yahoo Sports report. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The Washington Redskins made a contract offer to free-agent wide receiver D.J. Hackett on Thursday, according to the Charlotte Observer. Hackett has not acted on the offer because he wanted to continue with visits to Tampa Bay on Thursday and Carolina on Friday. The Seahawks have also expressed a desire to retain Hackett.

With Larry Fitzgerald re-signed in Arizona, there are rumors that the Cardinals might look to shop fellow Pro Bowl receiver Anquan Boldin, according to the NFL Network. Teams like the Cowboys, Eagles and Redskins, who have been looking for an elite receiver and tried to make a play for Fitzgerald, might end up in the Boldin sweepstakes. The Cardinals offered Boldin a contract extension last season, but he turned it down so he could wait to see what kind of deal Fitzgerald received from the team.

Wide receiver D.J. Hackett will visit with the Redskins on Wednesday, according to the Washington Times. He will become the first free agent to travel to visit the team this offseason. "D.J.'s looking to play for a playoff team with a good quarterback," Hackett's agent said. "He has a great deal of respect for Coach Zorn ... and, of course, he knows the offense."

The Redskins have agreed to terms with Rock Cartwright on a three-year deal, according to the Washington Post. The return specialist will be played nearly $3.35 million over the life of the deal. "We're real happy we were able to get this done," said Vinny Cerrato, the Redskins' executive vice president of football operations. "It made total sense because Rock is an outstanding special teams player, and he's also one of our leaders in the locker room. Rock does a lot of things for our team on and off the field, so he was definitely someone we wanted back."
