Once upon a time Jay Gruden's eye for talent helped a friend achieve his NFL dream. Around the time Gruden turned 52 in March, a text arrived from the same friend, now the father of a football-playing son. Like that, the Redskins coach aged a bit more.https://t.co/rgtfZdw4qx

Haskins didn't get the result he wanted, but looked the part on his last drive. Stood tall in the pocket against pressure and put the ball where his receivers could make plays pic.twitter.com/6LuYnEcT0R

Haskins took a big hit here as he threw a fade ball. Falcons rush 3 off the left side. Skins have 3 blockers available blockers, but the line doesnt slide that way. Free rusher comes off the edge and lands a big hit on Haskins #Redskins pic.twitter.com/BrIiqoe95D

Jay Gruden said he hopes Jordan Reed with be OK. But he also said Reed is in the concussion protocol after showing symptoms after halftime.

In his first six NFL seasons, Jordan Reed suffered just as many concussions.

He's in the concussion protocol once again, Jay Gruden confirmed after the game.

Takes complete blame for the turnover. Just doing too much. Thought they did well overall. Moved the ball. Just need to finish the drives.

One thing Ryan Day told me for a story I wrote on Haskins in the spring: When Haskins gets into a rhythm, he's as good as they come throwing the ball. Some hyperbole? Perhaps. But you saw snippets tonight on one drive. Once he can play without having to think a lot...

Redskins win 19-7. The starting offense had its moments, but ultimately couldn't convert on key opportunities. Jordan Reed's health right now is the biggest concern moving forward.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 23, 2019
Injury update: Marquis Flowers has an Achilles strain and is out of the game.
— Washington Redskins (@Redskins) August 23, 2019
Matt Flanagan has been cleared to return.
If the preseason is going to be meaningless, we need to lean into it. Cut to three preseason games: One home, one away, one somewhere wacky. If there's a hole in the field, toss some leaves on it and keep playing.

- Defense is legit and will be the backbone of the team.
— Jake Russell (@_JakeRussell) August 23, 2019
- Left side of the o-line will be an issue all season.
- I don't think LB Gary Johnson has played yet but I'm looking forward to seeing him play next week. Wouldn't be craziest thing in the world for him to make the roster.
Some #Redskins preseason impressions:
— Jake Russell (@_JakeRussell) August 23, 2019
- Haskins hasn't been super spectacular but shows lots of upside. His composure is his best trait.
- McKinzy harasses QBs/ball carriers every chance he gets. Deserves roster spot.
- Ryan Bee and Craig Reynolds have played their way to the PS.

Would be difficult to get rid of McKinzy; just don't see it... they have liked him for a little bit. Can't get rid of young, inexpensive pass rushers.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 23, 2019
Cassanova McKinzy. Again. He's been outstanding since the start of OTA's. His bend off the edge is elite.

Wild Play: #Redskins force a fumble. It's picked up by Ashton Lampkin and he runs it back for a touchdown... except he fumbled it just before the goal-line. So, it's a touchback.

Upon review, it appears that is, in fact, what happened #WASvsATL
And now for the dumbest rule in the NFL. Makes absolutely zero sense

Lotta folks don't realize how wide open (and innovative) the NFL was in the late 50s-mid-60s. It was only in the merger era that the defenses clamped down on everything.
