In addition to releasing linebacker Robert Henson, the Redskins cut Liberty University linebacker Kyle O’Donnell.

The team drew a boisterous crowd that “Ooooo’ed” “Ahhh’ed” and “boooo’ed” plays throughout the day. Some fans even scolded quarterbacks for bad throws and receivers for drops - as if the miscues really mattered.

Really guys? Really? Please tell me no one from here is among the idiots Mike Jones is referring to in this quote.

I don't see why fans root for one side over the over. It's a win win. If the offense has a bad day, that meant the defense had a good day. If the defense had a bad day, it means the offense had a good one. There's a winner on every play lol.

See why there are those who would like to see training camp far removed from some of these local idiots. Not all...but some of them only serve as distractions.

In defense of Hightower's, fumbling problem, (saw it once), his fumbles at today's camp can be corrected. He fumbled once when I was watching, but I think his fumbling is a bit overstated. He's a hard runner, who fights for every yard, so it's gonna happen, it's football. From what I saw, Hightower has a little bit of everything (vision, power, deceptive speed, and patience to find the hole). And He's DURABLE...can't say about Torain. Rather have a RB who can at least contribute, than a glass made RB who can never stay healthy.

Defensive lineman Joe Joseph was cut Saturday.

So we cut one from the Pup list and one from the Active list?

Henson- PUP
O'Donell- Active

Does this mean we have only one active slot left now?

^ I like. "19. One early observation and I’m not sure it’s completely accurate, but it seems as if the inside linebackers are able to run more freely to the ball in practice. The D-line might not be the NFL’s best, but if they can at least be effective, then this should continue."

Keim is one of the best in the DC media, imo. I love reading his stuff.
