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.

I know there had been some speculation Trent Williams could make a return to the Skins this week, but I’m told there are no new developments on that front as of this morning.

There’s stuff that’s not out there. That’s all I can really say. And some of the stuff that is out there isn’t correct from what I understand. HIPPA laws prevent me from saying anything more. Sorry.

The #Redskins ran the highest percentage of plays out of a 3-WR formation this weekend (95%). That probably has a lot to do with Jordan Reed's absence but I love that and hope it continues.

Couple things I heard on him : has length and speed. Can help immediately as a gunner. More raw as a DB. Stroman was only a gunner Sunday. One reason they liked Alexander last year: length. Good trait for a CB https://t.co/pHPMfbdxIX

Just finished writing a piece looking at the Cowboys offense under Kellen Moore. Film was a ton of fun to watch and very much borrowed philosophies from what Moore did as a QB in college at Boise State

The Redskins led the NFL with 32 accepted holding penalties last season; they had five such penalties accepted in the season opener. That's led to some complaining by linemen, notably right tackle Morgan Moses, that the team is being targeted. Moses was... https://t.co/7XqedHKLa1

I really like the way Case Keenum carries himself. Even keeled, unselfish, confident, positive. We are lucky to have gotten him. Between Alex and Case, not sure Haskins could have better mentors.

Terry was gone on this one. If Case hit this, his line would've been 6-200-2 https://t.co/9tgHF660xC

3Q 5:01, 1st & 10#Redskins use jet sweet action to get the FS out of the middle of the field as he exchanges with the CB. McLaurin is too fast to to do this against and uses his strength/speed to win on the post route.

Case just misses. Simple as that. pic.twitter.com/hnV8EAtEAR
I saw that and maybe. But it’s also a monster deep throw. Those are hard.

Redskins do this often. They sign NFL journeymen who rarely, if ever stick. Today it was

DL T.Y. McGill
CB Simeon Thomas
Meanwhile, they have players who they liked in training camp, who know the plays & coaches, yet they pass on them. They signed 2 bodies today! #HTTR
I don’t think this drags past week three, but this week was always 50/50. One more week of resolve for Trent to see if the Redskins will budge.

Gruden says Jonathan Allen's knee issue isn't serious. Didn't even rule out him possibly playing this week, but that could be optimistic.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 11, 2019
Gruden says that Peterson doesn’t need a special talking to or anything. He doesn’t like being the backup, just like no one else likes being the backup.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) September 11, 2019
“He’s in a good place.” He’ll start this week assuming Derrius can’t go.
The Redskins must do a better job maintaining their rush discipline vs. Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott. They did a good job of this in the first half vs. the Eagles' Carson Wentz on Sunday until the second half. Then, because of it, he completed key... https://t.co/OTfukYFQR7

Gruden said of the holding calls “we have to do a better job of hand placement.” Said if players feel targeted then be “better with your hands.”

My understanding is that neither the league, nor the #Patriots, knew about the potential lawsuit for WR Antonio Brown before he signed in New England. Asked about that today, Bill Belichick said: “I’m not going to be expanding on the statements that have already been given.”

The mighty coach has refused comment.
The machine to protect him in the name of touchdowns and beer commercials marches forward.

Twitter tough guys wonder why victims are reluctant to come forward.
I've already heard on ESPN three times this morning about how Antonio Brown has a daughter, as an argument that he wouldn't do what he was accused of. Bill Cosby has daughters. Harvey Weinstein has daughters. Lots of men with daughters have mistreated women.

Antonio Brown's former trainer Britney Taylor - who filed a sexual assault lawsuit against her former client Tuesday - is willing and planning to meet with the NFL next week, which is as soon as she can, sources tell ESPN. First, Taylor is getting married.

The #Chargers announced that TE Hunter Henry suffered a tibia plateau fracture to his left knee during last Sunday’s game against the #Colts. That is crushing.

My understanding is that #Raiders 1st-round pick, starting safety Jonathan Abram, will seek a second opinion/examination of his shoulder area, at this time, per source. A possibility lingers that Abram could be placed on IR as a result of his injury, source adds.

Re-watching some condensed NFL games tonight. The Dolphins are worse than I thought. They may go 0-16. Also, Hollywood Brown is unbelievable. Ravens fans should be giddy.

Parallels between the Antonio Brown case and the Derrick Rose sexual assault civil case. Both were filed as civil lawsuits without a prior police report being filed. Rose was found not liable. And the NBA waited for the civil justice system to play out. NFL should do the same.
