Pending approval from the league, we have some number changes:
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) September 2, 2019
Trey Quinn (18)
Ross Pierschbacher (64)
Wes Martin (67)
Donald Penn (72)#HTTR
Trey Quinn will be the new No. 18. Change isn't yet official from the league. Other new numbers: Jimmy Moreland (32); Wendell Smallwood (34), Wes Martin (67), Donald Penn (72); Ross Pierschbacher (64), Cole Holcomb (55) and Treyvon Hester (96)...

He wasn’t on the list we got, so despite 83 becoming available it looks like he’s staying. https://t.co/z30MGMs699

Redskins also officially announced:
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 1, 2019
* RB Wendell Smallwood claimed off waivers
* RB Byron Marshall released
*RB Shaun Wilson, LB Jordan Brailford placed on IR
The main roster now at 51. Would think adding an LB -- probably outside -- a must.

What are the Skins getting?
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) September 2, 2019
He’s quick, gets into the backfield. Wonder how he’ll fare as a 2-gapper there. Got a hand on the double-doink missed FG in the playoffs, and blocked another one this preseason. Good kid.

I love this!! 2nd day in a row for a common sense filled, football & gamesmanship move by my hero, Bruce Allen and the boys!!! Love it! #Redskins https://t.co/sGqnqu5gTB

#Redskins gotta be signing Wisniewski just to complete the trio of former Eagles, right? https://t.co/NwQueai2ZG
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) September 2, 2019
We’ll know a lot more after we talk to Gruden today. Depends on how McKinzy and Reed are doing. Might need to leave it open to bring someone up/sign someone if they won’t be ready for Sunday. https://t.co/uWjFDNFcoa
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) September 2, 2019
The most popular player to hit the waiver system this weekend was former Eagles RB Wendell Smallwood. Four teams - the Redskins, Colts, Jaguars and Bengals - all placed a claim on him, per source.
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) September 2, 2019
So they "better get this right" is your take on the Skins rolling with the young WRs, and not going with Doctson & Quick? I mean, come on. They better get this right should be the response if hung on to those JAGs. Lol

As expected, no Trent Williams at #Redskins practice. No Jordan Reed (concussion) or Colt McCoy (leg) either.
— Kareem Copeland (@kareemcopeland) September 2, 2019
On top of these, I don’t see Fabian Moreau either https://t.co/zYUCwUlk0J
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) September 2, 2019
Another no-show at practice today: CB Fabian Moreau. We'll see how hopeful Jay Gruden is this week about that injured ankle. Wrote ahead of the 3rd preseason game about fears Moreau could miss regular-season games. https://t.co/XfTfFx2cAb
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 2, 2019
#Redskins take the practice field without Jordan Reed today. Cassanova McKinzy is in warmups though.

First and foremost, good for Doc getting onto a team and getting ready to play Sunday.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) September 2, 2019
That said, weird fit. He and Cousins didn’t exactly mesh, tho it was Josh’s first real year. Maybe better the second time around. Would love to know what other options he had. https://t.co/Ua5M3Ycbc9
Great spot for him. No pressure. Can fill a 3rd outside WR role with a QB that has a feel for him. #Redskins #Vikings https://t.co/hXFgOd5n37
— Chris Russell (@Russellmania621) September 2, 2019
So when the Redskins face off against the Vikings in Week 8, it will be Case Keenum handing the ball off to Adrian Peterson for Washington and Kirk Cousins throwing passes to Josh Doctson for Minnesota? Weird. #Redskins
— Jack Brizendine (@JackPBrizendine) September 2, 2019
Why did Jay Gruden sound so dejected about Trent Williams today? Doesn't he know that Bruce Allen, who knows the truth, says Trent is coming back soon? He will play for the Skins this season! Bruce said it! Doesnt Jay talk to him!? pic.twitter.com/BFEWyHF7L6

Jay Gruden told reporters today that Derrius Guice will get more carries than Adrian Peterson. That was the best thing I heard in his press conference. Excited to see what Guice can do this weekend and beyond. #Redskins
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) September 2, 2019
Lane Johnson says he has to match the intensity of Ryan Kerrigan, “the heartbeat of their team ever since I’ve been here.” pic.twitter.com/H0TZe2Bt0d
— Les Bowen (@LesBowen) September 2, 2019
Cassanova McKinzy says he's ready to go for Sunday.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) September 2, 2019
Larger picture - he's really enjoyed being here and has learned A TON from Ryan Kerrigan. Main thing is just how to be a pro. "I've never seen that man miss a snap in practice."
RB Wendell Smallwood was all compliments towards the Philadelphia Eagles but made it known that he wants the ‘W’ against his former team. #HTTR #Redskins pic.twitter.com/migo4yXoaE
— Lake Lewis Jr (@LakeLewis) September 2, 2019
Smallwood also commented on the Eagles' pass-rush, calling them "the heart of the defense."
— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) September 2, 2019
"It’s going to be a fist fight with those boys on Sunday, and I kind of let the guys know that we’re going to have to be physical."
Redskins running back Derrius Guice will have the offense "go through him", coach Jay Gruden said Monday. That means veteran Adrian Peterson will open in a backup role, with Chris Thompson as the third-down back. The biggest question regarding this... https://t.co/btcDrUBCZl

— Washington Redskins (@Redskins) September 2, 2019
nope. miss by us. we'll ask Wednesday. Tho the prevailing thought is it's being kept open for a TE (probably Holtz) if Reed can't go.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) September 2, 2019
If Moreau misses Week 1, Gruden says Greg Stroman or Jimmy Moreland start corner. Doesn't mention DRC.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 2, 2019
Cole Holcomb (shoulder)and Shaun Dion Hamilton (chest) we’re back practicing today and Gruden said they’re on track for Week 1 in Philly #HTTR

As teams finalize and announce their practice squads, I think you guys may be interested in the 4-part practice squad series @natalieweiner did last season.

It’s super insightful. P-squad is a grind, man. Don’t even sound that fun. Couple ex-Seattle guys featured here too. https://t.co/hV7sBviBTJ

The Nationals have won 9-of-10, 11-of-13, 16-of-19 and 19-of-24 games. They haven't gained any ground on the Braves during this surge. That may have to wait until 7 head-to-head games in 10 days starting Thursday.
