The Daily Twitter will be posted at the beginning of every day (at midnight in Washington, DC). The goal is to give readers a handy spot to check the Redskins beat writers & bloggers, and national sports journalists to keep up on the latest news about the Redskins, the NFL, and sports in general, along with a smattering of other things.

Hi
Source: #Redskins DL Jonathan Allen had a second opinion on his sprained MCL today. Results were positive, avoided a scare. Timeframe still in the air, but not expected to be a long term thing.
— Kareem Copeland (@kareemcopeland) September 10, 2019
Yep. Was told a grade 1 sprain. Feeling is could miss a week or two...Allen was telling people Monday he was OK (also what they expected him to say). https://t.co/D9Cb2Sxk5U

Redskins are selling tix for Sunday’s game vs Dallas for as much as $760/ticket for club level ($190 for cheapest nosebleed seat after fees). Unlike last year, it appears to be a near sellout. Going to be biggest Cowboys invasion in history of stadium that‘s seen its fair share.

Marquise Brown, AJ Brown lead breakouts for NFL rookie pass-catchers in Week 1!

Loved the scheme by the #Redskins on the missed shot to Terry McLaurin. Skins run a jet sweep fake, Eagles have their FS charge down to match it while the CB rotates back to fill deep. Problem is, McLaurin is far too quick on his post for the CB to have any chance of getting back pic.twitter.com/QkOvzdm6sM

Case Keenum has now lost three games where he had 30+ pass attempts and averaged at least 9.50 ANY/A.
— Football Perspective (@fbgchase) September 10, 2019
Tom Brady has lost none. Philip Rivers has lost five.https://t.co/KiTX8cj0dJ
Railing against QBWinz is a good thing, but there are lots of better examples than this.
— Football Perspective (@fbgchase) September 10, 2019
Best losing QB in week 1, statistically, was Case Keenum, who lost with 380 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs, and 1 sack https://t.co/js2GQKwNaP https://t.co/4Z2SvggFTc
This is true. last year, Redskins ran 26 times for 125 yards in two games vs. Philly. that includes AP's 90-yard TD run. In 2017, a combined 35-139.. https://t.co/tEvjrbbPdc

#Redskins announce signing of Robert Davis to practice squad. Good reminder that the "you can't get this guy through waivers" arguments for WR's having a good August are almost always overstated. Everybody has their own young WR they like.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) September 10, 2019
numbers courtesy of @ESPNStatsInfo... And numbers always need context; hard to just go by those alone. Learned that long ago..But could be better with combo of Case Keenum/McLaurin. CK more aggressive looking downfield.

"It is so frustrating. He's a much better corner than he's playing. I just want to teach him how to play bail coverage."
Breaks down what he should do & bad eyes.
Great breakdown from a Pro Bowl CB.

Couple of nice plays here from #Redskins LB Cole Holcomb. He finished with 7 total defensive stops which was tied for the most among ALL defenders in week 1, per @PFF. Pretty solid start for a rookie drafted in the fifth round. #HTTR pic.twitter.com/ZzyEPgNawh
— Nick Akridge (@PFF_NickAkridge) September 10, 2019
For those critical of Thompson here, read the text of the tweet. The play is designed to go outside, he’s on a track out there and has particular designed reads. It’s the design of the play that takes him there, so he’s not looking for that lane.
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) September 10, 2019
Had to go back and study elite RG Brandon Scherff week 1, especially vs. fellow elite opponent Fletcher Cox.
— Brandon Thorn (@BrandonThornNFL) September 10, 2019
Scherff's vintage 'flash' or 'bait' technique in pass pro mixed in with jump sets + very few guards work combos or get out in space better as a run-blocker. pic.twitter.com/gcaSerNSyr
Watching the all-22 of the game right now and making the cut ups. The running game SHOULD have been better than what happened on Sunday. Execution was poor. Either a block away or RB vision is proving to be the culprit, imo.

Can confirm the Derrius Guice injury is to the meniscus. Timeline is still up in the air. One belief is could be back by next Monday if things go well. Another source says could be up to four weeks. #Redskins

For the new folks, every Tuesday I go through the #Redskins All-22 film. I'll tweet observations. If I'm definitive, it's because I asked. Most often it's "this or this happened" or pointing out interesting things.
There are gif's sometimes. Here we go!
Just finished writing a piece that will be out later today/tomorrow on how Penn and Flowers held up against the Eagles. But wanted to tweet out this clip of Flowers looking for work and helping out Penn, because who doesn't like seeing an OL flooring a DL? pic.twitter.com/jWwzcyNxHs

It’s cracks me up when fans tell other fans they aren’t “real fans”. So what do you think there’s a conspiracy to secretly root for a perennial joke of a franchise for 25 years without anyone knowing you actually root for a winner? If you claim the #redskins we’re family.

The Redskins waived corner Greg Stroman with an injury designation and signed corner Simeon Thomas off Seattle's practice squad, per the NFL transaction wire. They also waived tight end J.P. Holtz. Stroman was a reserve who could play inside or outside... https://t.co/eoB1xXjETZ

And the #Redskins have signed DT T.Y. McGill and DB Simeon Thomas.

I mean the Jets are getting the Patriots off the hook for a guy whose salary was effectively guaranteed and probably had no role and was a potential cut and gave up a 6th to do it
