Redskins | Ryan Kerrigan expects improvement

Washington Redskins LB Ryan Kerrigan said he expects to build upon a strong rookie season in 2012. Kerrigan finished last season with 7.5 sacks, four tackles for a loss, four forced fumbles and an interception. Kerrigan is more comfortable in his role as an outside linebacker. "It's just improving on what I know," Kerrigan said. "Last year, it was just about learning and getting adjusted to the new position. But I know what's expected of me now. I know my assignments this year, and I've just got to work on improving it. That's what's exciting to me about this year. I feel more comfortable with the defense. I'm more sure of myself. I'm playing faster because I know what to do. And I think that's going to translate into big things for this defense this year."
