Head Coach Jay gruden held his first presser of the week leading up to a Monday night game against the Chiefs. He talked about their offense, and what the Redskins need to do to stop them. He also gave some injury updates, including a surgery for backup tackle Ty Nsekhe that will cause him to miss time.
Defensive Coordinator Greg Manusky also spoke for the first time since the Redskins defense shut down the Raiders offense last week.
Kirk Cousins was scheduled to speak today, but he received a text from his pregnant wife that it was time. Good luck to the Cousins family today!
