Trent Murphy back to OLB, will also play DE:
Trent Murphy has been moved back to OLB, Gruden says, because of the absence of Galette. But he'll play DE too.
— Mike Jones (@MikeJonesWaPo) August 8, 2016
Trent Murphy is moving back to OLB, which he's been doing the last few days. "He can also be an extra defensive lineman."
— Stephen Czarda (@SCzardaRedskins) August 8, 2016
Trent Murphy is back to playing some OLB, according to Gruden. Tough to do at 285 pounds but Junior Galette injury left limited depth there
— Brian McNally (@bmcnally14) August 8, 2016
Trent Murphy is listed at 290 on the roster, but he reported for camp at 285, and is now down to 275 after the most recent weigh-in.
— Mike Jones (@MikeJonesWaPo) August 8, 2016
Murphy had dipped down to 270 when he had strep throat last week, and is back to 275 now.
— Mike Jones (@MikeJonesWaPo) August 8, 2016
Gruden doesn't think that Trent Murphy will have to lose weight to go back to OLB now. He says he's stronger and more explosive.

Outside Linebackers:
"Murphy, Ryan, Preston, Houston Bates..."

Josh Norman’s Fox Deal:
Jay Gruden on Josh Norman's new gig with Fox: "I have no idea what you're talking about. Pre-game show for what? Great to know."
— Dan Steinberg (@dcsportsbog) August 8, 2016
Gruden honestly did not seem to know anything about Josh Norman's FOX gig.

Su’a Cravens at linebacker:
Gruden confirms that Su'a Cravens will "exclusively" play Linebacker during preseason. Wants Sua to "get good at one position" before moving

Importance of preseason games:
Preseason games obviously don't count against W/L, but Gruden says they count "big time" towards who makes 53-man roster.
— Washington Redskins (@Redskins) August 8, 2016
Starters playing time in preseason:
Gruden talking of preseason, sounds like vets will play a bit in 3rd game, not much in others.

Cancelled Hall of Fame game:
"They just missed some vacation time. I'd be pretty upset" -Gruden on the HOF game

I was laughing about how much that would suck last night
His best Olympic sport:
Jay Gruden thinks his best olympic sport would be Ping Pong.
