Wed, 12 Jun 2013 16:29:47 -0700 Washington Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said the club doesn't have to eliminate the option running elements in order to protect QB Robert Griffin III (knee). Echoing his father, head coach Mike Shanahan, Kyle Shanahan contended that the read-option plays safeguard Griffin by taking steam out of opposing pass-rushers. Griffin was hurt on improvisational runs and merely needs to work on picking his spots to slide or throw the ball away when facing QB pressure. The younger Shanahan said that they might have to adapt more as defenses plan better for the system. Fantasy Tip: Griffin is a borderline QB1 on draft day with well-known upside. If you take him, just make sure to draft a capable backup in case he can't start the season on time.
Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:31:00 -0700 Washington Redskins S Jordan Pugh (ear) will not take part in minicamp this week because of an ear infection. Pew is at the team facility after being cleared to travel, but is having balance issues. "He's OK now, but he's got a balance issue, so the doctors didn't want to practice him today or tomorrow," coach Mike Shanahan said. "But he'll be ready for camp. Didn't want to practice him today or tomorrow, but he'll be ready for camp, a little bit unusual ear infection that he does have, but the doctors advised him not to practice."
Thu, 06 Jun 2013 11:54:44 -0700 Washington Redskins TE DeAngelo Peterson (foot) broke the fifth metatarsal in his right foot during practice Wednesday, June 5. There is no time table on his return. "Not sure how long it's going to be right now," head coach Mike Shanahan said. "There's some swelling."
Thu, 06 Jun 2013 11:31:20 -0700 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (foot, Achilles') said it has been a long time since he has felt as healthy as he currently does after participating in practice Thursday, June 6. Head coach Mike Shanahan was happy to have him back on the practice field. "It's fun to have him out there," Shanahan said. "Hopefully he keeps on getting better and better. In the meantime, we have a guy that weighs 225 pounds [the Redskins list Helu at 215]. He's under that 4.5 40, has the receiving skills and the opportunity to make the big play. So it's good to have him back and a chance to compete."
Fri, 24 May 2013 11:52:01 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said that QB Robert Griffin III could go down as one of the best quarterbacks to play the game if he has another year like 2012. "If Robert plays like he did (in 2012) the rest of his career, he'll go down as one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game," Shanahan said.
Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:34:11 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said the team has a plan to sign their 2013 draft picks even though they have $30,000 in salary cap space.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:41:39 -0700 Washington Redskins LB Keenan Robinson (pectoral) is still about a month away from being medically cleared, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. The hope is that he will be ready for organized team activities.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:33:45 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said LB London Fletcher (ankle, elbow) had successful surgery on ankle and elbow issues and is already in the weight room preparing for 2013.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:31:09 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan stressed that QB Robert Griffin III (knee) must continue to guard against rushing his recovery from a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Fantasy Tip: Griffin may be tempted to rush his recovery to be ready by Week 1, but it is something he will have to stay away from. As long as he continues to make progress over the summer and avoid set backs, his fantasy football value should continue to rise.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:30:33 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said that QB Robert Griffin III (knee) is doing well, and doing things not only to strengthen the anterior cruciate ligament, but the muscles and ligaments around it.
