PFW: Whispers Around the NFL

Some random Redskins-related news posted today (7/13):

"The Redskins, always looking to add D-line depth despite a thin market, were interested in bringing back DT Daryl Gardener before his retirement and would have been interested in former Packers DE Jamal Reynolds, but he was traded to Indianapolis. The Redskins will keep looking, but they have no interest in free-agent pass rusher Jason Gildon."

"Redskins RB Rock Cartwright was thought to be a square peg in a round hole after the hiring of head coach Joe Gibbs (Gibbs doesn't use a traditional fullback), but Cartwright has lost 10 pounds -- from 225 to 215 -- this offseason and looked good at tailback in minicamps. He could make the team over Sultan McCullough as a goal-line or short-yardage back, something Cartwright proved he could handle last season."

And, of course, for comic relief:

"Sources close to the Cowboys say WR Antonio Bryant is back in Dallas working out, but not at the team's facility. The team is kind of hamstrung with Bryant following his lashing out at coach Bill Parcells, because it is so thin at at the position, especially now that recently signed Dedric Ward has suffered a foot injury."
