Redskins-Patriots Joint Practice Recap Day 1
The Washington Redskins and the New England Patriots started their joint practice sessions in Richmond, Virginia today. This is a completely new process so it’s unknown just how much these practices will benefit or hurt the Redskins. One thing is for sure, it does give the Redskins coaches a chance to see what type of talent they have in comparison to one of the better franchises in the AFC.
There were several activities going on spread all across the two main fields plus the drill field early on, then 11 on 11’s (Redskins vs Patriots) to follow.
Here are a few practice drills (via Redskins.com):

After a period of positional work, the teams have reunited for 1-on-1s: Patriots offense against Redskins defense and vice versa.

In 1-on-1 drills matching the #Redskins‘ WRs vs. the Patriots’ DBs, @AldrickRobinson just caught a bomb over the shoulder, earning cheers.

On one field of 11-on-11s, S @brambo18 picks off a Patriots pass. On the other field, WR @AldrickRobinson gets another long TD catch.

So far during 11 on 11 drills, Griffin and Co. Look shaky. Starting skins D has struggled as well. Brady picking them apart.

Raheem Morris on Bacarri Rambo “He’s still fighting some demons” but says he’s working hard to improve. Wants to see him in game.#Redskins

Seastrunk hobbled at end of a run. Grabbed foot but went back in.

WR Rashad Ross with perhaps the play of #SkinsCamp so far, making a one-handed, diving catch along the sideline to convert a first down.

RG3 made some plays during 11/11, but one draw was stuffed by Patriots DE Rob Ninkovich. So much for that. But RG3 connected deep to DJax.
