Bruce Allen told me that the Redskins are working to bring back QB Josh Johnson.

Jay Gruden couldn't go to the Senior Bowl because two coaches who haven't had jobs since 2016 were floating around out there and he had to beat everyone to the punch.

Rob Ryan wouldn't stop calling & someone had to stay to answer the phone. Gruden was the right man for the job.

Redskins president Bruce Allen said on The Team 980 that the promotion of Kevin O'Connell was made because coach Jay Gruden wanted "to get some new thinking and fresh thinking into the offense." Allen said as of now Gruden would call the plays, but... https://t.co/rbw8VMDIRh

Rams DBs coach Aubrey Pleasant: "You know, I'd like to say that if I was in Washington, I could have made a difference there. I really believe that much. I believe in myself, and I believe I'm a difference maker."https://t.co/VFy2Wmr7NI

It’ll be interesting to see how the #Redskins manage to mix the different philosophies on their defensive staff now. One trait that is common throughout Manusky, Ryan and Horton is their willingness to blitz at any time, which fans will like, but it doesn’t always work well

So yes, guys didn’t win enough individually. Preston Smith “nearly” got home regularly, but rarely actually got the sack

Bruce Allen told @JPFinlayNBCS (and @Mitch_Tischler ) on their podcast that the Redskins don't have to take a QB in 1st.... obviously you can't box yourself in saying you need to. How you make bad decisions. But hard to imagine them passing if one at 15 they really like

I asked team president Bruce Allen if wholesale changes are needed for the #Redskins this offseason, then pressed him on Alex Smith's football future & its timeline.

Much more from Allen's rare, 1-on-1 local TV interview on @WTKR3 News 3 at 6pm.#HTTRhttps://t.co/bhtsl15OeL pic.twitter.com/BVk7AW2ASn

One fascinating tidbit - Tim Settle said OLB Pernell McPhee would often call out the opponent's play, Romo style, at the line. Settle wants to put in the time to get to that point. https://t.co/I4Es5AOTFV

Jerry Jones is not expected to extend the contract of Cowboys’ HC Jason Garrett, short or long term, as he now enters the final year of his contract, per @toddarcher.

The #Cowboys named Kellen Moore as their new offensive coordinator and named Jon Kitna as their quarterbacks coach. Moore replaces Scott Linehan and is expected to call the plays.

“I don’t necessarily love over time what my job has done to me. It has made me more jittery, more anxious ... and less able to go devote an afternoon. I’m sure some parents like to take their kids skiing. I couldn’t do that."

Have to think Joe Flacco wants to play for the Redskins. He wouldn’t have to move very far and would have a great chance to be the starter. I don’t want him at all, but I’d imagine Washington is at the top of his preferred destinations

Mississippi State DT Jeffery Simmons – a potential top-10 pick – and Colorado State WR Preston Williams have been informed they won’t be invited to the scouting combine because they don't meet the criteria under the NFL's policy about past issues involving violence, sources say.
