Gruden: NT Barry Cofield suffered a high ankle sprain vs. the Texans and “could miss some time.”

Gruden also said TE Jordan Reed suffered a mild hamstring sprain against Houston, and it “could be some time, also,” before he returns.

For now, Gruden said DL Chris Baker will likely slide over from defensive end to nose tackle in Cofield’s spot.

Gruden said that after watching film, RG3’s decision making was “pretty good” Sunday. Should have thrown ball away on two of the sacks.
