Chase Young on Dwayne Haskins : “Fans are getting a guy who works hard, is a crazy competitor, as you've seen this offseason, Dwayne has been preparing like a pro," Young said. "Coming out on the field at practice, you can just tell it's a different type of Dwayne." pic.twitter.com/fYAcuDGQp4

A potential deal for Washington fans to keep in mind if Daron Payne develops nicely in more of a 1-gap system. https://t.co/MKxfXovIY9

There’s no need for either guy to take a discount. The cap can be manipulated to keep guys you wanna keep. Just look at how the Chiefs worked a number of big deals this offseason. https://t.co/HWE6YfWs8W

I think this is wildly inaccurate. Actually, I'd be willing to bet a semi-valuable item this is false. https://t.co/CpxbvitsIW

This should surprise no one. He was FAR more WR than RB at Memphis. Even if he was a full-time RB in college, that skill takes time in the NFL. https://t.co/l52lsc8knl

Washington's helmets are even sweeter with tinted visors. Kinda want one. Just to wear around.

Tyreek Hill said he has solidified himself as the fastest player in the game after the race with Mecole Hardman. Hill said he was real serious about training for the 100 in the Olympics. He had conversations with his trainers about it. Not sure if he’d win, but thinks he’d place.

Per @NFLResearch, there are 22 players on the reserve/COVID-19 list right now, which marks the fewest since the first day (July 26), when six players were placed on the list. By Day 2, there were 24 players on it. Good signs right now.

Potentially enormous news for the country, including sports. The NBA backed this project and NFL and NFLPA medical officials have been monitoring. Cheaper, faster, and pool testing could make a huge impact. https://t.co/QZXYiNrCnC

Not only are they not making money, they invested money, time & resources. They are making $0.
Read this: https://t.co/DtLj4k5DzS. Insane lack of leadership from the Big 10. I don't blame the parents here. NCAA gave no guidance. Big 10 gave no guidance. Individual programs were aggressive, and gave the kids a shot that's now been taken.

Juan Soto just hit his 6th homer in his 10th game. This one only traveled 417 feet, a cheapie for him. He hit it out to the opposite field, which he's done more than any other lefty since the start of 2018.pic.twitter.com/4Hyz2QILiF
