Redskins twitter feed:
#Redskins coach Jay Gruden reiterates that he still "very strongly” believes LT Trent Williams won’t be traded. The team has privately resisted all inquiries. Note: I’m told Williams, who has had several surgeries, is now healthy and ready to play. For someone.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 26, 2019
No news out of Gruden presser today. Biggest thing is he still firmly believes the team won't trade holdout Trent Williams. But remember, it's not the coach's decision.

Jay Gruden says that Donald Penn will start at LT as of now.

Gruden said RB Bryce Love will open on the PUP list. Gruden said it’s very possible this is a “redshirt year” for him.

Redskins back to footballing today. Some notes:
— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) August 25, 2019
-Quinn is back in pads
-Rob Davis is in jersey but no pads and not stretching
-Don’t see Reed. Not a surprise
-Keim is wearing jeans even though it’s a little hot. His new shoes look sweet by the way
Paul Richardson and Samaje Perine are back in practice today after yesterday’s side work. TE Matt Flanagan is still on the side.

#Redskins LT Donald Penn on how he helps rookie OLB Montez Sweat: "I was holding the shit out of him today. Holding him, holding him. Even late after a play. He’s getting mad...I’ll hold him in practice because they’re not going to call it. So in a game it’s easier for him."

The comedy is, two of the QBs the Redskins cast off -- Brad Johnson and Rich Gannon -- faced each other in a later Super Bowl. Trent Green, meanwhile, went on to lead the Chiefs to the playoffs, and Gus Frerotte started a playoff game for *two* other teams (Lions, Broncos).
— Dan Daly (@dandalyonsports) August 26, 2019
The amazing thing, as we talk about the ever-changing #Redskins quarterback situation, is that Joe Gibbs went to the playoffs with 6 different QBs in 16 coaching seasons -- Theismann, Schroeder, Williams, Rypien, Brunell, Collins. Never ceases to blow my mind.

That’s total bullshit Doug. What qualifies you to decide how someone should live their life? So you’re now the authority on what motivates Andrew Luck? And if his decisions don’t fit into what you think is best for him then you rip him? Guess that keeps you employed on FS1. Nice https://t.co/p59DsmPoER

Instead, he retires with his name almost completely absent from them.
He only once ever led the NFL in any major category.
4 Colts QBs have won MVPs; Luck is not one of them.
So what’s his legacy? https://t.co/9NBLM28Tgw

2) But Matthews says the Packers essentially told him to get lost just before free agency, and it caught him off guard. "I was kind of taken aback, because I thought I’d always be back there, whether it was at a cheaper price (or not)..."
