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.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:20:40 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan is pleased with the team's off season. Shanahan said he was pleased with the way the team was able to re-sign a lot of their players with the salary cap restrictions the team had, which was not something he expected.
Thu, 03 Jan 2013 11:32:49 -0800 Washington Redskins OG Kory Lichtensteiger (ankle) has been getting treatment every day, and the hope is that he will practice Friday, Jan. 3, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Wed, 02 Jan 2013 07:39:54 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he is not concerned about QB Robert Griffin III (knee) prior to the team's Wild Card playoff game. "The doctors say he's 100 percent," Shanahan said. "We don't have to worry about him re-injuring that LCL. The brace helps him at least mentally know that he's not putting too much pressure on it. I think sometimes that's why he looks a little bit different when he does cut. I think it bothers him just a hair, but it's something that he has to wear."
Mon, 31 Dec 2012 12:29:24 -0800 Washington Redskins C Kory Lichtensteiger (ankle) will be reevaluated Wednesday, Jan. 2, after suffering an ankle injury in Week 17. Head coach Mike Shanahan said he hopes he will be OK.

Mon, 31 Dec 2012 08:58:44 -0800 The Washington Redskins are considering signing head coach Mike Shanahan to a contract extension, according to people with knowledge of the team's planning.

Washington will likely pursue the extension now instead of waiting.
Mon, 24 Dec 2012 12:17:06 -0800 Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III (knee) was not limited in any way in the team's Week 16 game, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Mon, 24 Dec 2012 11:55:53 -0800 Washington Redskins S DeJon Gomes (knee) has a medial collateral ligament sprain, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:30:53 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan picked up his 174th career win in Week 16 against the Philadelphia Eagles, tying former Green Bay Packers head coach Mike Holmgren for 11th all-time in NFL history.
Thu, 20 Dec 2012 11:13:12 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said QB Robert Griffin III (knee) should play in Week 16, as long as he does not suffer any setbacks.
Wed, 19 Dec 2012 11:29:41 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said QB Robert Griffin III (knee) looked good in practice Wednesday, Dec. 19. Shanahan said doctors will evaluate Griffin III Thursday, Dec. 20, to make sure there are not setbacks.

Mon, 19 Nov 2012 13:15:11 -0800 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins WR Pierre Garcon (toe) played under half of the team's snaps in the team's Week 11 game. With the Dallas Cowboys next on the schedule for the Redskins, head coach Mike Shanahan said it remains to be seen how Garcon reacts to the turf in Dallas.
Mon, 12 Nov 2012 12:17:42 -0800 Washington Redskins OT Jammal Brown (hip) is pain-free and has improved flexibility, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. The Redskins have two weeks to activate him from the Physically Unable To Perform list.
Mon, 12 Nov 2012 12:01:36 -0800 Washington Redskins WR Pierre Garcon (foot) was limited in practice Monday, Nov. 12, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. Fantasy Tip: Monitor his practice status this week since this is the most progress he has made in weeks.
Wed, 07 Nov 2012 06:01:09 -0800 Washington Redskins players are defending their head coach Mike Shanahan after he seemingly wrote off their season and then said his comments had been misinterpreted. "I thought he clarified exactly what he meant, how it wasn't portrayed the way it needed to be," said LB London Fletcher. "He let us know exactly how he feels about this season, how he feels about the guys in this locker room. Coach Shanahan's a proven winner, a two-time Super Bowl-winning head coach. He's not a person who gives up on a season." TE Chris Cooley added, "We're frustrated to lose football games, but no one in this locker room would ever quit and there's no coach that would never give up."
Mon, 05 Nov 2012 10:03:49 -0800 Updating a previous item, Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan insists that he's not giving up on his team's 2012 season, and that a Week 9 postgame quote that indicated as much is being misinterpreted. "To insinuate that I was giving up on the season is completely ridiculous," Shanahan said. "We've got five NFC East games still on the schedule. Anytime you have division games, you have a great chance."
Mon, 05 Nov 2012 08:48:05 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan essentially waived the white flag following the team's Week 9 loss, saying players are now working for jobs next season. "When you lose a game like that, now you're playing to see who, obviously, is going to be on your football team for years to come," Shanahan said. Players were not particularly happy with their head coach following those comments. "Being 3-6 really (stinks) because right now we're on the outside looking in," LB Lorenzo Alexander said. "I'm not thinkin' about next year. That's an offseason thing for me. But you know it's hard when you see yourself in that type of position and your head coach is saying those types of things. It's disappointing."
Mon, 29 Oct 2012 12:33:40 -0700 Washington Redskins P Sav Rocca (knee) is punting with a torn meniscus in his knee, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Thu, 25 Oct 2012 12:41:25 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said that TE Logan Paulsen is the team's No. 1 tight end heading into the team's Week 8 game.
Mon, 22 Oct 2012 12:19:01 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said the team is not pushing WR Pierre Garcon (foot) and the injury is the same as it always has been.
Mon, 22 Oct 2012 12:11:37 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan called TE Chris Cooley when he returned to Washington to find out what type of shape he was in. Shanahan said he trusts Cooley when he says he is in shape.
Mon, 15 Oct 2012 12:07:17 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said WR Pierre Garcon's (foot) injury is painful and it affects his running downfield. It is an injury that will require rest.
Mon, 08 Oct 2012 12:06:12 -0700 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III (concussion) needs to get through the week without any setbacks in order to play in Week 6, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:12:32 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan praised RB Alfred Morris after the team's Week 4 game. Shanahan said Morris is improving quickly despite being a rookie. "He never makes the same mistake twice," Shanahan said.
Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:08:40 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said the team will not be bringing in any kickers this week to challenge PK Billy Cundiff, who completed one of the four chances he had in Week 4.
Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:04:20 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said QB Robert Griffin III played his best game of the year against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "He made plays most QB's can't make," Shanahan said.
Mon, 24 Sep 2012 13:00:07 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said that WR Leonard Hankerson has played well enough to earn a starting role, especially with the injuries to the position.
Mon, 17 Sep 2012 12:11:32 -0700 Washington Redskins LB Brian Orakpo (pectoral) will miss the rest of the season with a left pectoral tear, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. The recovery time for that injury is expected to be four months.
Mon, 17 Sep 2012 12:10:45 -0700 Washington Redskins DL Adam Carriker (quadriceps) will miss the rest of the season with a quad tendon tear, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. The recovery time is expected to be five months.
Sat, 01 Sep 2012 18:10:22 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan indicated Saturday, Sept. 1, that he has settled on a starting running back for Week 1, but he is keeping it a secret. He said RBs Roy Helu Jr. and Evan Royster have made "tremendous progession" in pass protection, so the starter is believed to be one of the two. Fantasy Tip: Helu, Royster and undrafted rookie RB Alfred Morris are each expected to see touches in the opener against the New Orleans Saints. This type of secretive behavior by Shanahan gives fantasy owners fits. Look for Shanny to play the hot hand throughout the season, so be prepared to shuffle your lineup accordingly.
Mon, 21 May 2012 10:01:47 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan was knocked down during a midfield collision between two players Monday, May 21, and is a little woozy. He will not be talking to members of the media.
Thu, 17 May 2012 06:12:11 -0700 The Washington Redskins will not take part in the HBO series "Hard Knocks" this season, according to head coach Mike Shanahan. The head coach said that he's not inclined to open the doors to cameras and microphones, because it keeps coaches and players from being themselves.
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 06:27:55 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he loves Baylor QB Robert Griffin III not only as a quarterback, but as a person. "He's a great guy, great parents - I had a chance to spend a couple hours with his parents, and you know where he gets it," Shanahan said. "Obviously, you look at the film and you like what you see on film. As we all know, from the collegiate level to the pro level there are growing pains. Every quarterback goes through it. But he's got such a big upside."
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 05:54:44 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said Wednesday, March 28, he will be open-minded about the possibility that the quarterback the team will select in the NFL Draft, either Baylor QB Robert Griffin III or Stanford QB Andrew Luck, will be the club's starter at the outset of his rookie season. However, that's not a given, according to Shanahan, who said the issue of whether the prized rookie starts immediately will depend on the young quarterback's progress during the offseason and training camp. "You put him in there when you feel like he's ready to go," Shanahan said.
Wed, 21 Mar 2012 09:03:29 -0700 Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder, general manager Bruce Allen, head coach Mike Shanahan and offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, among others, are in attendance at Baylor QB Robert Griffin III's Pro Day Wednesday, March 21.
Mon, 05 Mar 2012 09:29:03 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he believes the team had a playoff-caliber offense in 2011. However, for Shanahan, lack of depth was the biggest issue. "Well, I think we were a playoff-caliber offense this year," Shanahan said. "But we didn't have the depth that you need to go through a season. You can't lose your left tackle, your left guard, your center. You can't lose your starting running back and tight end, especially your tight end that's your best blocker in Chris Cooley..."
Wed, 25 Jan 2012 05:29:35 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he currently does not have a franchise quarterback on his roster and hopes to acquire one through the NFL Draft. When asked if he was keying in on a quarterback at the Senior Bowl considering his roster, Shanahan replied, "I think everyone wants a franchise quarterback. If you don't have a franchise quarterback and you say you're not looking for one, then you usually won't be working for very long. Everybody wants that guy. People that usually do have that guy are consistently winning."
Wed, 11 Jan 2012 17:09:16 -0800 Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris agreed Wednesday, Jan. 11, to join the staff of the Washington Redskins. He will serve as the defensive backs coach. Head coach Mike Shanahan said he will allow Morris to void his contract if he is able to secure a defensive coordinator position next year.
Sat, 31 Dec 2011 13:32:46 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he believes that the team will compete for a playoff spot next season because it will have better depth than it did this season. He believes the team would have been a playoff contender this season if it did not deal with a lot of injuries.
Thu, 29 Dec 2011 11:46:40 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said there is no doubt in his mind that he will return to the team next season.
Tue, 27 Dec 2011 07:15:06 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan admitted Monday, Dec. 26, the rebuilding project he took on was a more difficult task than he expected. "A lot longer than I first anticipated," Shanahan said. "We had less depth than I thought. We were a little bit older at a few different positions. I thought we might keep those players a little longer than we did." The Redskins have lost at least 10 games for the second consecutive season.
Tue, 13 Dec 2011 05:03:40 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan has not been pleased with team captains losing their poise during games and drawing penalties. In Week 14, CB DeAngelo Hall picked up a flag and threw it after he was called for holding. "If you make too many of those mistakes, eventually you're not with us," Shanahan said.
