Derrius Guice is out for the year; Chris Thompson is a roster lock. Of the remaining backs competing for roster spots, who looks the best?
The Redskins are holding running back tryouts in Asburn today because things are getting a little thin following a number of injuries, both major and minor.

The Dolphins are desperate for cornerback help, so much so that they’re working usual slot corner Bobby McCain on the outside, as Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald writes. During this week’s practices, Miami used McCain opposite No. 1 corner Xavien Howard, with versatile first-round defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick in the slot. McCain became of the NFL’s highest-paid slot corners after agreeing to a four-year, $27MM extension earlier this year, but if he can stick on the outside, the...
Free agent running back Orleans Darkwa will work out for the Redskins on Sunday, according to John Keim of ESPN.com (Twitter link). Washington is in serious need of backfield depth, especially after losing presumptive starter Derrius Guice to a torn ACL. Meanwhile, Samaje Perine is expected to miss at least a week with an ankle injury, and Byron Marshall could be sidelined for a month with his own ankle issue. The Redskins also waived/injured running back Martez Carter earlier today,...
Jay Gruden gives updates after today's practice
Jay Gruden spoke to the media after today's practice, the first one back at Ashburn after training camp ended this week. The Redskins have waived/injured RB Martez Carter, and only had three RBs healthy enough to practice(Rob Kelley, Chris Thompson, and Kapri Bibbs). Derrius Guice tore his ACL in the first preseason game. Samaje Perine and Byron Marshall injured their ankles on Thursday againt the Jets and will both miss some time.

A look at the stats and snap counts for every offensive player on the Redskins in the team’s preseason matchup with the New York Jets
Snaps- Gruden utilized 33 of his 43 offensive players over the course of 64 snaps. Nine of the 11 offensive starters played in the game, with Trent Williams and Jamison Crowder being the two exceptions.
Starter Results- Alex Smith and the other offensive starters who suited up, played for just one drive and 10 snaps. They did, however, move the ball 71 yards...
It sounds like Junior Galette has another suitor. The free agent linebacker is set to visit with the Rams tomorrow, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.There’s been plenty of interest in the 30-year-old’s services, but he still hasn’t been able to catch on with a team. The Rams and Browns reportedly had interest in the veteran earlier this offseason, and the Raiders were considering a pursuit. We most recently heard that Galette could still return to the Redskins, where he had spent...

Notes from the Redskins 2nd preseason game | Fanspeak.com
The Redskins run defense has been a major concern the last few years, but they looked good giving up just 7 yards on the ground on 5 carries. This was obviously a small sample size, but this was a very promising start for the Redskins defense.

"Dancing With the Stars" left Norman in great shape, and the 30-year-old cornerback wanted to take his training a step further this summer.
Jay keeps saying that special teams play will decide a lot of roster spots; which rookies are looking the best at the returner positions?
IntroductionOn the 1st of June, we took a look at the Redskins options for returners as we headed into camp. That article identified Greg Stroman, Trey Quinn and David Kidsy as rookies who had experience as punt returners in college. It added Danny Johnson and Martez Carter as rookies who had experience returning kickoffs.
In this article, we will look...

It’s preseason for everyone. On Thursday night, Washington Redskins kicker Dustin Hopkins put his team up 12-3 in the third quarter with a field goal.ESPN’s notification system let fans know about it, with a “slight” mistake.Rather than noting Hopkins’ kick was 28 yards, ESPN mistakenly wrote it was a 92-yarder, which of course is an impossible kick. Hopkins must have had someone send him this picture, because on Friday morning he had a bit of fun with it. For the record, the...
Mark Tyler gives you his Studs and Duds of the Redskins game against the Jets on Thursday night.
First of all, let me just say this was one hell of a boring game to watch. But second, we appeared to come out of the game with no major injuries - so that in itself was big.
My guess was that these two teams were sick of seeing each other after the week of joint practices, and just wanted it to end.
Below are my Studs and Duds of the game, followed up by some notes.

Anyone have any spare RBs?
The Redskins lost Samaje Perine earlier in the game with an ankle injury. He is questionable to return. Now Byron Marshall, who is fighting for the last spot at RB has left the game, and is being evaluated for a lower leg injury.
And we all know that Derrius Guice was lost for the season a week ago with a torn ACL. The Redskins RBs are getting banged up early and often. Hopefully both of tonight's injury are minor.
RB Byron Marshall is being evaluated for a...
