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.

Just got fired on Friday ♂️ ♂️
— AB (@AB84) September 20, 2019
The #Patriots have released WR Antonio Brown, as he indicated on Twitter. They have moved on.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 20, 2019
Thank you for the opportunity @Patriots #GoWinIt
— AB (@AB84) September 20, 2019
A statement from the #Patriots: “The New England Patriots are releasing Antonio Brown. We appreciate the hard work of many people over the past 11 days, but we feel that it is best to move in a different direction at this time.”
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 20, 2019
How in the world did Mike Tomlin manage AB for as long as he did?
— manny benton (@manny_benton) September 20, 2019
He lasted one game. ONE. Think about that. Any dumb ass @NFL organization that even thinks about signing that guy should automatically be kicked out of the league.
— Chris Russell (@Russellmania621) September 20, 2019
Antonio Brown has been cut or traded (for next to nothing) by three AFC teams since January.
— Chris Russell (@Russellmania621) September 20, 2019
He was also acquired by the #Bills and refused to go.
Think about that.
And.....NO!#Steelers #Raiders #Patriots
How long did AB last?
— Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) September 20, 2019
3,189 days: AB in Pittsburgh
182 days: AB in Oakland
14 days: AB in New England
9 hours: AB in Buffalo
If Antonio Brown does not wind up receiving his $9M signing bonus from the Patriots (the first $5M was due to be paid on Monday), he will go from a $30M guarantee in March to $9M guaranteed to just $158,333 made for 2019.
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) September 20, 2019
Other league execs think it’s a weak forfeiture case. Regardless, AB has earned two $62,500 game checks plus a $33,333 46-man bonus, and the rest of his $1M base salary was guaranteed (another possible fight). And a potential grievance awaits vs. #Raiders over voided guarantees.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) September 20, 2019
Brown will most likely carry about $28M in dead money charges this year between the Steelers, Raiders, and Patriots while playing in all of one game
— Jason_OTC (@Jason_OTC) September 20, 2019
So does another team sign Antonio Brown now or is he done in the NFL for a while?
— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) September 20, 2019
They traded DT for this. https://t.co/AWvEdLl7BX

As a Patriots fan I would kind of like Demaryius Thomas back.

Reuben Foster out at practice again chatting with DC Greg Manusky. He was just with Rob Ryan as the ILB started drills. Shaun Dion Hamilton told me after his injury that the best way to stay in a good place after an injury was to be around the team and engaged #HTTR pic.twitter.com/dpOfJG8XlH

Redskins practice time. Jon Allen working with the DL unit. Cassanova McKinzy and Quinton Dunbar on the side field. No sign of Jordan Reed.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 20, 2019
That’s DE Jonathan Allen going through individual drills. He did not practice Thursday. pic.twitter.com/gQ3vplLLRR
— John Keim (@john_keim) September 20, 2019
I think this is somewhat ironic: if a Redskins player sits out, some call the guy soft (a word id never use about football players) and complain. But if Allen says he’s going to play, half of what I hear is that he should sit out. Make up your minds.
— John Keim (@john_keim) September 20, 2019
.@Redskins @TheTerry_25 is the best rookie receiver I have studied through 2 weeks. He should have 4 TD’s as I haven’t seen a defender he can’t step on the gas and blow by yet. And the best is yet to come. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/qWHjkr7P7V

What/Who has been the #Redskins most surprising storyline to start the season?
— Lake Lewis Jr (@LakeLewis) September 19, 2019
Major recent #Redskins what-if has become Calais Campbell. Three sacks on #ThursdayNightFootball. Now has 28 sacks over 35 gms for #Jags. Jay in Jan. 2018 seemingly admitted #Skins opted against going hard after Calais in favor of diversifying risk & signing McGee & McClain. Boo.

Gardner Minshew II had zero college offers coming out of high school...
— AB (@ab89) September 20, 2019
He went to 4 different schools in 4 years...
He fell to the 6th round of the NFL draft...
What are your excuses?
Sources: The #Dolphins have made a big move. QB Josh Rosen is set to start vs. the #Cowboys on Sunday. Coach Brian Flores made the decision this afternoon.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 19, 2019
Let’s create the absolute most dog situation possible for the young QB we acquired so we can then evaluate how he handles “adversity” when we start him. Good luck Josh Rosen.
— Louis Riddick (@LRiddickESPN) September 19, 2019
Not sure if starting Rosen is the best move for Miami or not. Part of me thinks its great to showcase him and get a chance to flip him again. Another part thinks the team is so bad and hell look so bad he loses all value.

Their only hope now that doesn't involve cutting a compensatory free agent of their own is for Jordan Devey to remain a starter for the Raiders for the whole season. https://t.co/u8cDawcars
In this @PFF data study, I take a look at the increase in holding calls, how much is a due to new referee guidance, and quantify the effect on NFL offenses https://t.co/INSEpvAr3J pic.twitter.com/K4tfubtMW9
— Kevin Cole (@KevinColePFF) September 19, 2019
The emphasis on holding penalties in the NFL is a bad idea. Ends drives. Puts teams behind sticks. Lowers scoring. Bad for product.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) September 20, 2019
2017 holding calls through 2 weeks: 119
2018 holding calls through 2 weeks: 109
2019 holding calls through 2 weeks: 179
Too many penalties. Just let us play!!!! #TENvsJAC
— Tom Brady (@TomBrady) September 20, 2019
— Rich Eisen (@richeisen) September 21, 2019
Why are @NFLOfficiating and the @NFL tweeting out Shawn Hochuli promos? We don’t need to know an official’s name. We aren’t watching to enjoy incredibly insightful and exciting penalty calls. The less we notice zebras the better. Over zealous officiating is ruining a great game.

A quarterback diving for the goal line in an effort to score is treated as if he's "giving himself up"? And that's in the NFL rule book?

NFL statement on Antonio Brown is pretty clear: League is investigating allegations. As long as he is a free agent, he can’t be placed on Commissioner’s exempt list.
