Sunday August 5

Gruden dropped some roster news ahead of the preseason opener against New England on Thursday, revealing Chris Thompson will not play against the Patriots. 


Wide receiver Maurice Harris drew cheers for a highlight-reel catch in one-on-one drills, out-jumping cornerback Greg Stroman to haul in a pass.

Several players had the morning off, while some of their teammates succumbed to the intense heat. 

Rain hit Richmond in the afternoon, however, forcing the Redskins to shorten their afternoon walkthrough.

Saturday, August 4

After Friday's off day, the Redskins return to training camp today for Fan Appreciation Day. As usual, the day began with Jay Gruden providing some injury updates, specifically on Daron Payne and Josh Doctson.

Brian Mitchell of NBC Sports Washington reported on Thursday Doctson had a swollen heel drained, in addition to the shoulder injury that he picked up on Wednesday, but Gruden said, "I don't think I've ever heard of a heel being drained, so I don't know where that came from. That is not true."

Doctson is on the field today taking part in some drills, but isn't a full participant just yet. 

Off the field, Redskins fans have turned out in force for Fan Appreciation Day.

The large crowd had something to cheer about early on in practice, as Josh Norman picked off an Alex Smith pass. 

The ground game has also gotten in plenty of work this afternoon, both running backs and defenders making some good plays.

Jay Gruden opened the day with some injury updates, including the status of Josh Doctson.

Several players missed practice heading into Friday's off day, but veteran middle linebacker Mason Foster made his return to team drills. 

As the day continued, a couple players appeared to pick up a knock or two. 

The Redskins were able to complete their morning practice, but inclement weather prevented them from having an afternoon walk-through.

Before the rain came down, however, long snapper Nick Sundberg provided one fan a moment of sunshine.

Today began with the first transaction of training camp.

Additionally, DeAngelo Hall came to practice today and announced he is officially retiring. 

On the field, the intensity is clearing picking up as the first preseason game approaches.

Alex Smith continued to enjoy a strong start to his first Redskisn training camp, finding receivers with several great throws. 

It's not all good news for the passing attack, however. Josh Doctson has picked up another injury. 

Tuesday, July 31 

Training camp resumed in Richmond today, and the day began with a hilarious name mix-up during Jay Gruden's morning press conference.

On a more serious note, several players recovering from injuries are taking encouraging steps.

Mason Foster remains out of action after straining a stomach musle on Sunday, and the coaches made sure several linebackers fighting for a spot got reps with him sidelined.

The morning practice has concluded, with Chris Thompson and Quinton Dunbar providing some of the day's early highlights. 

Morgan Moses took the podium following practice, and the veteran tackle gushed about new quarterback Alex Smith. 

Fellow offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe and tight end Jordan Reed did not participate in practice Tuesday, but don't panic Redskins fans: it's all part of the plan.

Could we see Jonathan Allen on offense in 2018? "Let me play a little fullback," the second-year defensive lineman says.

Despite an ankle injury, the Skins are "blown away" by how far along top pick Daron Payne is.

If you haven't heard it, snake-bitten tight end Jordan Reed – coming off a torn right hamstring – spoke to Craig Hoffman about rebuilding his body from the ground up this offseason, and the revolutionary process he used to do it. 

Craig Hoffman on the areas in which Alex Smith is far and away better than Kirk Cousins:

The Redskins will give one fan a VIP experience at their home-opener against the Colts on Sept. 16.
