Redskins latest news and notes

Redskins | Will not add Tim Hightower any time soon

Redskins | Brian Orkapo takes part in workout

Redskins | GM not sure if Robert Griffin will be ready for camp

Washington Redskins general manager Bruce Allen said he is not sure if QB Robert Griffin III (knee) will be ready to participate once training camp begins. "It's too early to tell right now. He is doing everything that the doctors want him to do. He's a great worker. I think that's why there's so much optimism that he'll be ready at the beginning. But it's really too premature to speculate on where his medical condition is until we give him a physical when training camp starts July 25," Allen said.

Redskins | Have crowded backfield

The Washington Redskins have seven running backs on the roster right now, with only RB Alfred Morris guaranteed of a job in Washington this season. Based on the current roster, it appears RB Evan Royster will be battling Jawan Jamison, and RB Roy Helu Jr. will be battling Chris Thompson for the two running back spots behind Morris.

Redskins | Four RBs likely to compete for roster spots

Washington Redskins RBs Roy Helu, Evan Royster, Chris Thompson and Jawan Jamison are expected to compete for two roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp. Helu and Thompson are expected to compete for one spot while Royster and Jamison are expected to compete for the other roster spot.
