Saturday will mark 14 years since Sean Taylor was shot and killed protecting his family from armed robbers.

He was only 24 years old. One of the most electric players in the NFL taken far too young.

RIP 21.pic.twitter.com/DTxkPWl9zh

Tress Way on Heinicke: "I feel like this is what I look like when I play neighborhood pickup football, like playing against 6- and 7-year-olds. I look like a dog against the elementary school kids, man. I’m not gonna lie, I can make it rain out there." https://t.co/8QdLglB5jj

Bobby Wagner was asked by Seattle media today what he remembers most about the first time he played at FedEx Field, in the 2012 WC game:

Wagner: "The field was trash, for sure."

I don’t see WR Curtis Samuel out here. TE Ricky Seals-Jones is working off to the side along with DE Montez Sweat.

Logan Thomas (IR; hamstring) and Curtis Samuel (groin) are both out here during the media-viewing portion.

Ricky Seals-Jones (hip) and Montez Sweat (IR; jaw) are in the back working with trainers.

TE Logan Thomas has been moving well all week at practice and would be an added and welcomed target for Taylor Heinicke in the #WashingtonFootball offense. Could that happen in time for Mondays game against Seattle? It sure looks like it is heading in that direction. pic.twitter.com/BX6IzR1hC5

Seven things the Washington Football Team can do to boost its playoff hopes.

Here's one: feed Terry McLaurin. That's a "duh" but consider the record when they do.

McLaurin 5+ catches = 4-1
McLaurin <5 = 0-6

Terry McLaurin was at a Wizards game recently and took lots of pictures with fans there as he continues to become a star in DC and not just with the WFT. He doesn’t take that stature for granted. “I’m excited to be a part of this city and continue to grow” pic.twitter.com/9tuX8n5uzT

The Giants are declining to make an "offensive coordinator" available to the media this week, despite NFL rules requiring one to speak -- thus continuing the charade of who will call plays for them on Sunday.

Most IT band injuries are overuse injuries, and it’s a common problem for runners. I haven’t found any great comps in the NFL yet, but if mild it should heal within around 3 weeks. A moderate IT band strain would be more like 5-6 weeks.
