Running back Chris Thompson first met Abby Johnson three years ago at training camp, shortly after she was diagnosed with pediatric brain cancer. Thompson wore a purple bracelet in support of her and featured Abby's Army as his "My cause, my cleats"... pic.twitter.com/z9BLiRQFYo

Every practice I watch him, I’m thinking they need to sneak him on there. He’s enjoyed a great camp so far. Sure handed. Uses his body and frame really well to help his QB out. I’m actually struggling to think of if he’s dropped anything. He’s caught every pass in red zone so far https://t.co/2dq1jk6mJy

Wait a minute..... Adonis Alexander walked off the field yesterday during walkthrough yesterday. And I didn't tweet about him today? Anybody see him today?
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
On field: DRC, White, Moreau and Collins.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
Front sideline: Reaves, Dunbar, Lampkin, Moreland, Harris, Everett
Back sideline: Norman, Nicholson, McIntosh.
Where's Adonis? pic.twitter.com/hwJtZS7PKi
I remember Adonis Alexander had a hamstring issue but didn't see anyone say he was out but that must have been the case.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
probably get to ask before practice tomorrow
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
Easy answers are Guice and Bostic. Thought Guice would have to take it slower coming into camp. Bostic already calling the defense has been nice.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
McLaurin a lot. Harmon at times. Holcomb looks good. Martin is still working. Moreland for sure. You already know Haskins.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
I will say I am surprised #Redskins haven't looked around for safeties. It's Collins, Nicholson, and Everett..... Then NOBODY else. Reaves has been working in with 1s by default and Apke hasn't shown much.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
Dwayne Haskins can do things the other QBs can't. TJ Rahming runs a decent enough route vs Deion Harris. Breaking on out route. Deion Harris looks like he made a great read and is under-cutting the pass. But arm strength and ball placement gets it in. #Redskins pic.twitter.com/RI4QIyiBMo

#Redskins newly signed CB DJ White in coverage vs. Jehu Chesson. Chesson Tries the in route with the outside release. Club back inside doesn't work great. DJ White with great coverage #Redskins pic.twitter.com/Ux5NgRM5sA

Just realized new #Redskins CB DJ White is someone I was real high on coming out of the draft.

#Redskins CB Adonis Alexander is set to miss time with a quad injury. It's time he can't afford to miss:https://t.co/qeoUKWKyjt

Paul Richardson came to Washington, and made it a point to be the vet who takes the rookies under his wing, to take the guys out, talk them through what they're doing. Said he's done that with McLaurin, who's a speedster like him, and he likes the group cause they listen #HTTR

PRich: "I learned how much I loved this game. I learned how much this offense needed me. That's why I played with it so long."
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 4, 2019
He was hurt in camp last year and he played in 7 games with the injury before shutting it down. Fought through a lot. Probably more than he should've.
If I'm ranking based on how players have performed at OTAs, minicamp and training camp, then I've got Cam Sims, Trey Quinn, Terry McLaurin, Josh Docston, Paul Richardson, Kelvin Harmon, Steven Sims, Robert Davis, TJ Rahming, Darvin Kidsy https://t.co/0ZAJxT7UZ5
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) August 4, 2019
Pretty sizable list of extra absentees today from practice, many planned I'm sure:
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 4, 2019
RT Morgan Moses
RB Adrian Peterson
CB Quinton Dunbar
CB Greg Stroman
Those on top of Alexander and Sweat that we knew about. McKinzy returned (and looked good).
Also out. Knew that one before practice.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 4, 2019
Many players staying back to work after practice today. Norman & another DB on front field. Woodrum, Keenum throwing routes to Chesson on backfield. Doctson, Kidsy, Craig Reynolds and Brailford running sprints. Haskins throwing routes to Harmon. McKinzy working w pass rush dummy
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 4, 2019
Landon Collins with an INT in 2 minute for the second straight day. This one in the middle of the field off McCoy.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 4, 2019
It’s been a bad day for the QB’s. Second one in a row.
The Redskins have used Ross Pierschbacher as a guard the last few days. He’s been working with the third team as a guard while Zac Kerin is at center. The redskins want inside guys to play all three spots

BJ Blunt picks Keenum to end another 2 minute drill. O had to hurry to line with time running out. Would have been flag for not being set. Keenum over the middle after mini scramble and Blunt there.
— John Keim (@john_keim) August 4, 2019
Colt McCoy picked off by Landon Collins. That’s been an issue. #redskins

Not arguing, I’m saying if learning the playbook is the reason he’s not #1 QB it’s an excuse because Jay likes McCoy anyway. I don’t think Case ever had a chance here. If McCoy makes it through camp and preseason don’t be surprised if Case is released
— Michael Nomad (@MichaelNomad44) August 4, 2019
I’m not giving myself a nosebleed I promise :). I just think Gruden is wasting time trying to give equal work to 3 guys. https://t.co/EOjOnRmp9u

Ray Horton is stressing two things all camp; making contact within 5 yards and seeing the ball. Two things Redskins DBs have struggled with in years past.

Fines apparently aren't an issue for the Pro Bowl left tackle, who remains a #Redskins holdout https://t.co/XwY4k8Ts6w
— Pro Football Rumors (@pfrumors) August 5, 2019
Still working in. But if Christian can play, they'd obviously prefer to play him. He's a 22 year old draft pick. Penn is a 36 year old who won't be here more than a year. https://t.co/LQpxMZvU3L
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 5, 2019
I'm not surprised Richardson and Doctson are listed as the WR1's by any means and it could DEFINITELY play out that way, but don't rule McLaurin out. He's having an insanely good camp.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 5, 2019
He might just wind up starting at X, which either pushes Richardson out or over to Z for Doc.
Obviously everyone initially was surprised at Colt McCoy being QB1, but that's legitimately where we are.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) August 5, 2019
He's been better than Keenum. That might change. Thursday will be a big first step, if both guys play. Not convinced McCoy gets put in quite yet. His leg is still healing.

Ed Reed says he considered applying for a DBs coaching job with the Patriots. Definitely has a desire to coach again at some point and would love if the Ravens would create a position for him somewhere on staff. Seems like a no brainer to me. They should make it happen

The Texans placed RB D’Onta Foreman on waivers. They weren’t happy with his work habits. RBs on the roster are veterans Josh Ferguson, Buddy Howell and Taiwan Jones and undrafted rookies Damarea Crockett and Karan Higdon Jr.

#Patriots QB Tom Brady’s two-year extension runs through 2021, but safe to say both sides are taking it year by year at this point. He gets a bump from $15 million to $23 million in 2019.

From Inside Training Camp: The #Patriots and QB Tom Brady have done a deal. After coming very close early in camp, the two sides took a break, then just came to an agreement. pic.twitter.com/6uKekCw2JA

So, an NFL team just committed multiples of millions of dollars to a quarterback to play football as a 42, 43 and 44 year old and it’s totally understandable and wise.
