On one hand, we shouldn’t overreact to Redskins training camp. Because it’s training camp.

But on the other hand… it’s training camp! It’s the first “football” in almost half a year, and the excitement is mounting for the Redskins 2018 season. The pieces seem to be coming together. But until the real football starts, this excitement has no concrete foundation. On paper, the Washington Redskins can be elite. But it doesn’t matter until it’s on the field.

The Redskins got onto the field today, albeit without pads, and there were some developments as practice went along. Flip through the slides and take a look!
