Redskins Head Coach Bill Callahan and Offensive Coordinator Kevin O'Connell spoke to the media today. Callahan gave several injury updates heading into this weekend's game against the Jets. Paul Richardson is dealing with a hamstring injury from the Bills game two weeks ago. He hasn't practiced all week, and this could be an opportunity for rookie Kelvin Harmon to get more playing time. Adrian Peterson is a machine. Vernon Davis is getting closer to returning from his concussion, but Chris Thompson is still dealing with turf toe.

Callahan said the Redskins are still gathering information on the Montae Nicholson situation. He won’t say if Nicholson will be allowed to play Sunday if healthy - Nicholson has been on the injury report and he last few weeks.

Paul Richardson Jr./Kelvin Harmon:
Receiver Paul Richardson did not practice again Friday as he rehabs a hamstring injury. There’s still a chance he plays this week but it could open the door for rookie Kelvin Harmon to get more time.
— John Keim (@john_keim) November 15, 2019
Callahan said Paul Richardson hurt his hamstring in Buffalo. The team is still waiting to find out if Richardson can play vs. the Jets, but he hasn’t practiced all week
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) November 15, 2019
Vernon Davis/Chris Thompson:
Vernon Davis is “getting closer” to playing, Callahan said. Chris Thompson isn’t as close.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) November 15, 2019

Says he’s seen AP deal with a variety of injuries here in Washington, but somehow they never set him back... “He’s rare, he’s one of a kind.”
Kevin O'Connell Presser
Dwayne Haskins Jr.:
Offensive coordinator said Haskins had a good week of practice and the game plan against the Jets will largely come down to what plays he is comfortable with, which is growing every day. #Redskins #HTTR
— Zach Selby (@DarDarBinx61) November 15, 2019
Kevin O’Connell says he believes Dwayne Haskins can go out and deliver a strong performance on Sunday. The coach knows the QB has the skillset and the playbook will be tailored for him.
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 15, 2019
OC Kevin O'Connell said Haskins showed decisiveness against the Bills, which was one of the biggest things the coaching staff wanted to see.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) November 15, 2019
Kevin O'Connell today on the game plan with Haskins at QB. Said the practice reps offers hope of opening the offense, but ultimately there's the team approach to consider. Wrote about KOC's play-calling in relation to Callahan's plan here. https://t.co/vMjApY0Ad9 pic.twitter.com/DtoJYOunzv
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) November 15, 2019
O'Connell said they haven't really had to repeat things to Haskins during practice, which is another sign of his continued growth.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) November 15, 2019
OC Kevin O’Connell says Dwayne Haskins has really begun to “develop a process throughout the week.” Adds it has been “fun to watch” his rookie QB improve week-to-week and will look for an increased comfortability within the offense from #7 on Sunday.
— Ryan Fowler (@FowlerRyan1) November 15, 2019
Derrius Guice:
O'Connell: having Derrius Guice will definitely help with the offensive game plan. #Redskins #HTTR
— Zach Selby (@DarDarBinx61) November 15, 2019
O’Connell when asked about the advantage of both Peterson and Guice in the backfield at once: “you guys always ask these questions. You don’t think the New York Jets aren’t listening?”
— Les Carpenter (@Lescarpenter) November 15, 2019
Jamal Adams:
O'Connell with some very high praise for Jets safety Jamal Adams. Said that there might not be a better safety in terms of his overall impact. Then compared him to former Steelers great Troy Polamalu.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) November 15, 2019
Terry McLaurin:
O'Connell: We knew Terry McLaurin was going to be a very good receiver. We didn't expect him to be our X receiver. #Redskins #HTTR
— Zach Selby (@DarDarBinx61) November 15, 2019
Offense without Jordan Reed/Vernon Davis:
Kevin O’Connell talking about adjusting the offense without both tight ends Reed and Davis: “it’s definitely a factor”
