Redskins vs Browns Preseason Week 1
The Washington Redskins will kick-off their 2015 preseason Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns. In a game that means nothing, Redskin coach Jay Gruden said the starters may see “up to a full quarter” of play. It should be noted Gruden also said Robert Griffin III may all only see one drive, so we’ll wait and see for ourselves.
Preseason normally is four games of vanilla-style offense where coaches are not wanting to show their hands on what they have for the season, but at the same time they have to play the games. What this game will offer is the first chance for everyone-to see the new-look defensive front and right side of the Redskins o-line. Both areas were weaknesses a year ago and were addressed in the offseason.

If Paulsen ends up needing surgery, the #Redskins‘ depth a tight end will be tested. Reed is already nursing a hammy. #RedskinsTalk
