Special teams period, but noticing Reuben Foster doesn’t have the bulky brace on his knee. Just has it tapped up today.

Left side of the O-Line: Christian and Martin. Been that way all morning.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
Just saw a nice blitz pickup from Christian and Martin. The result of the play: Haskins completes a pass to Logan Thomas. Drive ends in a field goal.

First team offense is back, but on defense

Ryan Kerrigan
Sean Davis at FS
Everett at SS
Simeon Thomas at CB
Aaron Colvin at CB
.@WashingtonNFL really mixing up personel packages on offense today in team drills. Also, more variety in play calls from certain packages. Maybe less telegraphing. Can't get too specific but u can figure it out. @WSHFootballSI

Second team defense wa able to get a sack on Dwayne Haskins on 2nd down. He connected with Logan Thomas on a big third down gain, but it was still short of the sticks. 4th down, FG team comes on and connects for the score.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Steven Sims Jr. just returned a kick & came up hobbling off field. Hope nothing bad. @WSHFootballSI @theMMQB
— Chris Russell AKA The Rooster (@Russellmania621) August 30, 2020
Next team period is the first-team offense against the second defense. Haskins completes three of his four passes, including two first-down throws to McKissic. On third and long, Haskins hits Logan Thomas to get into better field goal range. Hopkins nails the FG.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
If guys are competing for spots Cam Sims just made a big play. Time for Trey Quinn to respond. Those two are fighting for final WR spot in my mind
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) August 30, 2020
Cam Sims just made a tough catch with good coverage on a bomb. Then he follows that up with another pass. Good things are coming from the former Crimson Tide player.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
Twos vs. Ones - Kyle Allen finds Cam Sims deep along the left sideline. Haskins was hype after that one.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) August 30, 2020
Steven Sims with a good kick off return to set up 2nd team offense. Kyle Allen going again s the 1s. First play he unloads a huge throw to Cam Sims with Jimmy Moreland in stride. Sims hauls it in for the big gain.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Defense forces its first punt of the morning. Trey Quinn goes back to receive.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Second-team offense goes up against the starting defense. First play is a deep completion from Allen to Cam Sims. Moreland in coverage. Cam Sims just keeps making plays.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
Peyton Barber is able to carry the ball out of the shadows of the end zone with a hard nose run. Adrian Peterson back too
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Peyton does the hard work on first down, he’s rewarded with a second run. Cuts left, finds daylight and nearly a first down. 3rd and 2
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Steven Sims is back on the field after hobbling off earlier. Haskins just went for him deep, but Sims couldn't haul it in.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 30, 2020
Dwayne Haskins with a big throw to Steven Sims. Sims has it hit his hands but he drops it. Greg Stroman was half a step away in coverage. 1st team offense punts. Darvin Kidsy back to receive. Back to back punts forced by the first team defense.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Starting offense vs. starting defense: Offense backed up against the goal line. Barber two rushes for 8 yards. On 3rd and short, Haskins looked for McLaurin (covered) before going deeper to Steve Sims. Perfect throw in double coverage, but Sims can’t bring it in. Punt.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
Ryan Anderson did a nice job sniffing out the run. Bryce Love tries to spin and reverse field. It doesn’t work, Anderson holds onto him in the backfield. Kyle Allen misses Cam Sims and then Marcus Baugh on the subsequent play.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Whew, Chase Young just saved a touchdown. Just beat Geron Christian Sr. with speed on the edge to tag Dwayne Haskins. Haskins hit Jeremy Sprinkle in stride for what would’ve been a touchdown. Haskins ran down to celebrate it, coach Ron Rivera callee it back.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Young just got past Geron Christian for a “sack.” Christian had his head ducked and Young worked around him to make the play.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
This is the final day of training camp in Ashburn and I swear there's pretty much a different linebacker pairing each time the starting defense takes the field. It might be the most wide-open competition on the roster.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 30, 2020
Cam Sims just caught another pass, this from Haskins to get the offense down to the 10.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
J.D. McKissic with a nice job sliding over to chip Jimmy Moreland coming on a corner blitz. Gave Dwayne Haskins time to him Cam Sims for a big gain to get almost inside the 10.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
J.D. McKissic takes the handoff and is almost immediately let by Daron Payne in the backfield for the loss.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Jon Allen down on the ground and looks like in pain. Trainers tending to him. Walking off field now but very slow and not putting much weight on his leg
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) August 30, 2020
Jonathan Allen slow getting up. Being helped off the field. Gingerly.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 30, 2020
We have our first INT of practice. Stroman just came down with a pass in the end zone. Stroman is making his case today.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
Latest team period: Haskins completes 2 of his 4 passes, including a 3rd-and-long coversion to Cam Sims. But on 3rd-and-goal, Haskins throws an INT to Stroman. Other notes: Young with the sack; Daron Payne tackle for loss.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
On that actual play, Dwayne Haskins Trude throwing the ball to Cam Sims working against Greg Stroman. Stroman stayed with the play, watched Haskins eyes, got inside position and then hauled in the INT in the end zone for the touchback.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
2s just finished up lates 11v11. Allen: 6/7. Drive ends in a field goal.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
Looks like trainers are wrapping Jonathan Allen’s leg now. Thomas Davis just came over to give him a fist bump. Now Haskins checking on him.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 30, 2020
Coach Ron Rivera, DC Jack Del Rio, DL coach Sam Mills III, LB Thomas Davis and Dwayne Haskins walk over to check on Jonathan Allen as he sits on the sideline with a leg injury.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Jonathan Allen is up walking around now. It appears the medical staff put a brace on the left leg. The staff also took his helmet, the sign that he's done at least for the day.
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) August 30, 2020
Matt Ioannidis in with the first-team DL with Allen sidelined.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) August 30, 2020
Starting defense forces a three-and-out against the starting offense. Two incompletions from Haskins and a two-yard run from AP. Tress Way with a booming punt.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
Tress Way just dropped a sick punt that hit inside the 5 and, of course, did NOT go in the end zone, because Tress Way punts aren't allowed to end up as touchbacks
— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) August 30, 2020
Khaleke Hudson has a little hit stick to him. You can hear the pads pop when he gets a tackle. Meets J.D. McKissic in the hole to keep the gain short.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Haskins, working with the second-team WRs, goes three-and-out against the second-team defense. Khaleke Hudson with a nice pop on McKissic.
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
Antonio Gibson knows how to change his run style in every situation. He’s quick and fast on the outside, physical on the inside.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
Ryan Anderson and Ryan Bee work together to collapse the pocket and sack Dwayne Haskins on first down.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Nice throw from Haskins for a TD to Quinn. Morgan Moses was fired up "good FN throw boy. That's how you throw that"
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) August 30, 2020
Jeremy Reaves with a nice tackle in the flat on Marcus Baugh trying time sneak into the end zone. Keeps the offense out
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Dwayne Haskins has the pocket collapsing around him, decides to tuck it and run. The left side of the defensive line got too far in and lost contain. Defensive backs didn’t see Haskins until too late. He scores and Morgan Moses comes running up to his QB to celebrate.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Offense tries for two. Dwayne Haskins tried squeezing it into Antonio Gibson, and Kamren Curl breaks the pass up in the back of the end zone.
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 30, 2020
Worth nothing that Haskins might have gotten tackled short of the goal line if this were a game, but I’m going to give @dh_simba7 the benefit of the doubt. https://t.co/ZuJIaojhoC
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) August 30, 2020
After taking a sack on the first play, Haskins completed five of his next six passes. He just scrambled into the end zone, and Morgan Moses sprinted up to him to celebrate.
— Zach Selby (@ZachDSelby) August 30, 2020
FWIW: No Alex Smith during the full-team action today... Participated in one 11-11 session yesterday with team in shells.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 30, 2020
Ron Rivera met with his team for a good five minutes or so after a long practice. Could not really hear him saying much. Didn't appear body language wise that he was really upset. We'll ask. @WSHFootballSI
— Chris Russell AKA The Rooster (@Russellmania621) August 30, 2020
Here’s Jonathan Allen after practice, looked to be giving pointers to Chase Young pic.twitter.com/L7775XxWxq
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 30, 2020
Final training camp practice comes to a close. Team in the circle. Kendall Fuller didn’t participate in any team drills. Alex Smith didn’t take any snaps. Jonathan Allen is walking around. Last fully open session is tomorrow’s scrimmage at FedEx Field.
