Pernell McPhee:

Pernell McPhee expected to sit out Tuesday practice but Gruden likes him. “He’s been a good surprise for us” calls him a “nuisance rusher”

Trey Quinn:

Gruden on Trey Quinn: He’s fun to watch

Kyshoen Jarrett:

Jay Gruden says Kyshoen Jarrett will continue to be an intern-coach for the defensive backs and special teams unit, a way for him to stay in the organization and get his feet wet into the coaching realm.

Kyshoen Jarrett is in camp working with the DBs and special teams. Gruden said it's akin to an internship. "We want to make sure it's something he wants to do," Gruden said. "If he's committed he’ll be an unbelievable football coach."

Pete Robertson:

Robertson's speed is a huge asset, because it helps a ton on special teams. He's so fast they used him as the scout team running back last year.

"He can really rush the passer" which obviously is the most important thing at that position.

Jordan Reed:

Look for Jordan Reed to get some 11 on 11 work on Saturday (fan appreciation day) per Gruden. #Redskins

Jay Gruden, DB:

I asked him directly, and got the answer;

"Jay Gruden is questionable today with a shoulder, knee, ankle..." https://t.co/hqUhRRKUHf

Chris Thompson:

Grduen on Thompson: Sometimes you treat them like a china doll.

Thompson will get team reps today and should be "full go" sooner than later.

Chris Thompson should get some more team reps today. Gruden expects him to be full go sooner than later. #Redskins

New England game:

"Quite honestly we don't do a whole lot of prep for New England [preseason week 1].

We just try to get our base formations and fundamentals down"
