Passion is horribly misplaced in blindly paying for a faulty product because "I AM FAN GWARRRR!!!

What if i told you, you can still root for a team intensely, & just as, if not more passionately than anyone else with the benefit of TV, bars, & the old smart phone....all without giving your ****ty F/O anymore of your hard-earned coin?

Kory Lichtensteiger on new o-line coach Bill Callahan's intensity: "We'll definitely get better....if we don't die first."

Interesting stuff from Kory Lichtensteiger. Said Callahan is very thorough, very intense but KL said not to expect big change to offense


ESPN 980 @ESPNRadio980 2m2 minutes ago

Asked Jason Hatcher about more attack scheme focus of DL....He said when describing philosophy "You said it attack." #Redskins

Gruden said DHall coming along very fast. "He's at a stage in his career where he knows how important the rehab is" #Redskins @SportsJourney

Gruden said DJax will be back at #Redskins prax next week.. #RedskinsTalk

 

George Wallace @GWallaceWTOP 3m3 minutes ago

Kerrigan will be ready soon. Trent Williams flight canceled out of Houston, J Reed had knee soreness and D Jackson missing this week.


Around The NFL @AroundTheNFL 3m3 minutes ago

Jay Gruden says TE Jordan Reed experienced soreness in his knee. He'll get it checked out.


John Keim @john_keim 3m3 minutes ago Ashburn, VA

Trent Williams could not get out of Houston. And jordan reed is getting his knee checked out. Some soreness.


JP Finlay @JPFinlayCSN 4m4 minutes ago

Gruden says Jordan Reed not here due to soreness in the knee. Sounds familiar

 
Brian McNally @bmcnally14 5m5 minutes ago

Meanwhile, Trent Williams' flight from Houston last night was canceled cause of the weather in Texas. Why he's not at OTAs


Zac Boyer @ZacBoyer 7s8 seconds ago Ashburn, VA

Gruden said Griffin is "a confident guy" and didn't detect any kind of hit to his psyche last year. Trying to now get players around him.

 

Diane Chesebrough @DiChesebrough 33s34 seconds ago

Per Gruden, Trent Williams not here due to missed flight. Same with Tracy Porter. Jordan Reed dealing w/soreness #Redskins @SportsJourney

 

John Keim @john_keim 2m2 minutes ago Ashburn, VA

Fwiw: Morgan Moses said the team has not talked to him about playing guard.


Mike Jones @MikeJonesWaPo 2m2 minutes ago

Gruden happy with the tempo of practice but annoyed with all the pre-snap penalties. Says maybe excitement was to blame.

 

Tarik El-Bashir @TarikCSN 3m3 minutes ago

Gruden acknowledged that the faster pace of today's OTA was by design. Wanted to squeeze in as many reps as possible.

 

George Wallace @GWallaceWTOP 3m3 minutes ago

Gruden: "Pleased with energy and tempo." #Redskins

 

Zac Boyer @ZacBoyer 4m4 minutes ago Ashburn, VA

Gruden said team is trying to push the tempo in practice. They haven't gone no-huddle yet but will work that in soon.


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 4m4 minutes ago

Jay Gruden says he's not naming a second-team QB. Will split the reps and make a call before the opener.

 
 

John Keim @john_keim 6m6 minutes ago Ashburn, VA

Tracy porter also missed his flight or a connecting flight per jay Gruden. So porter not here either


Around The NFL @AroundTheNFL 6m6 minutes ago

Jay Gruden: No decision on #Redskins' No. 2 QB right now. Colt McCoy and Kirk Cousins sharing snaps behind Griffin.


Tarik El-Bashir @TarikCSN 6m6 minutes ago

CB Tracy Porter also missed his flight, Gruden said. "Lots of flight issues last night," JG cracked.

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said at safety they've gone from "struggling to it being a strong spot." That's offseason optimism at its finest.

New SS Jerron Johnson was the individual that stood out most to me in one practice. Had a nice INT & a really well timed pass break up

 
 
 

Tarik El-Bashir @TarikCSN 2m2 minutes ago

Gruden said Trevardo W. has a good shot to grab a spot alongside the other OLBs Kerrigan, Preston Smith and Murphy.

Gruden said #Redskins will "study" the two-point conversion much more now with new extra-point rules -- both defending and attempting them.


JP Finlay @JPFinlayCSN 5m5 minutes ago

Gruden: "Our special teams the last couple years have not been very good." **entire DMV nods head**

 

Tarik El-Bashir @TarikCSN 5m5 minutes ago

Gruden said he likes what he's seen from Trevardo Williams, who was out there opposite Trent Murphy today with Ryan Kerrigan out.

 

Mike Jones @MikeJonesWaPo 5m5 minutes ago

Duke Ihenacho lined up with Dashon Goldson as the other starting safety today. Gruden says he's in mix (with Jeron Johnson) for starting SS.


Chris Russell @Russellmania980 6m6 minutes ago

Gruden won't commit to Duke Ihenacho at starting SS but feels they are a LOT better overall at safety position. #REDSKINS

Griffin dropped a bombshell: Alfred Morris had a son this offseason.

 
 
 
  1. @ZacBoyer When? Did he say?


Zac Boyer @ZacBoyer 3m3 minutes ago Ashburn, VA

Griffin said after three years of turmoil in offseason, he's hoping that they can move forward now and improve.

 

Tarik El-Bashir @TarikCSN 3m3 minutes ago

RG3 on his offeseason to this point: "I worked on everything." Noted that coming back to the same system and coaches is key.

RG3 much looser at the podium than he's been in a (long) while. Cracking jokes. Making funny clarifications, etc. Almost like 2012 version.

 

Robert Griffin III is being very careful to make sure that he explains certain buzz words or phrases so they don't get twisted in media

Mildly surprised Ihenacho is lining up at SS, but my money is still on Johnson starting game one. Not good news for P. Thomas


Redskins o-line coach Bill Callahan has his guys working hard well after practice ends. Waiting for some pukers. Toughening em up real nice!

Bad sign to see the always injury prone Jordan Reed already having potential issues.

 

Especially since TE was one of the positions that the SM didn't really address during the offseason.He may not be cut

 Some guys just stay hurt all the time and he seems like one of those kind of guys. It's always something with that dude.

SkinsQB RG3 says QB coach matt Cavanaugh has helped sharpen his focus.


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 15s15 seconds ago

Let’s do some #Redskins OTA observations: No Tracy Porter, Trent Williams or DeSean Jackson due to “missed flights."


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 15s15 seconds ago

#Redskins TE Jordan Reed out with a knee injury. Gruden downplayed it as no big deal, but given Reed’s injury history, not ideal.


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 48s48 seconds ago

One moderate depth chart surprise: Duke Ihenacho getting the safety reps over Jeron Johnson. Obviously a fluid situation.


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 26s26 seconds ago

RB snaps went in this order: Alfred Morris, Chris Thompson, Silas Redd, Matt Jones. Nothing will be handed to the rookie.


michael phillips @michaelpRTD 1m1 minute ago

There weren’t any o-line vs. d-line drills, which is a shame. They’ll probably happen behind closed doors tomorrow.

There’s a new QB coach, but most of the dialogue on the field was still between Jay Gruden and RGIII. That’s the key relationship.

Since its the offseason, I'll just pose the question. What about the possibility of Jones at H-Back or TE? I'm thinking about a Chris Cooley type role when Gibbs first got here and he was more of a hybrid TE....
