Cam Newton:
Gruden on Cam Newton: 'We have to be sure tacklers. We have to be fundamentally sound to wrap him up and take him down.' #RedskinsTalk
— CSN Redskins (@CSNRedskins) November 19, 2015

Josh LeRibeus, starting center:
Gruden says Josh LeRibeus is still the starting center. "He is making progress" with snaps, but still needs to work on accuracy.
— Washington Redskins (@Redskins) November 19, 2015
Gruden also says he's sticking w LeRibeus as his starting center. Says now signing of de la Puente was more for insurance.

DeAngelo Hall at safety:
Gruden on Hall playing safety: 'I think you look at the success Woodson has had in Oakland... D-Hall has similar-type ball skills.' #Redsins
— CSN Redskins (@CSNRedskins) November 19, 2015
Gruden says D-Hall's ball skills combined w/ Culliver/Breeland playing well at corner, makes this is a good time to switch to free safety.

DeAngelo Hall at safety:
Barry on Hall at safety: 'He's not exclusively a safety, he's still going to play corner... but he was great with it.' #RedskinsTalk

Joe Barry says DHall is not exclusively a safety...still has skill-set to do both. Just trying to diversify. #Redskins
