Of the top quarterbacks available in free agency, one is already off the market while another is meeting with the Miami Dolphins.

The Washington Redskins have announced the re-signing of Todd Collins. Contract terms were not released.

FOXSports.com also has confirmed that Oakland quarterback Josh McCown is taking a free-agent visit with the Dolphins. McCown started nine games for the Raiders last season, but is expected to cede the starting position in 2008 to JaMarcus Russell.

The Dolphins are in need of a starting quarterback, as Trent Green was released and Cleo Lemon is expected to sign with Jacksonville.

As for Collins, he helped guide Washington to four consecutive late-season victories in place of the injured Jason Campbell. Collins, 36, seems likely to return to a backup role behind Campbell.
