Speaking with reporters Sunday, Washington GM Scot McCloughan would not address whether the team was interested in bringing Cooley back.

Robert Griffin III has gone from the one of the most popular and sought-after quarterbacks in the game to one of the most confusing and least promising in just two years. “You want to get, obviously, better fundamentally, and get your scheme taught and find out your best players”. “I see improvement. Liked it a lot”, McCloughan said.

On the official last day of training camp (closed to the public), the Washington Redskins went through a light walkthrough before returning to a newly renovated Redskins Park in Ashburn.

“We came together a little bit more as a football team”, Washington coach Jay Gruden said.

The Redskins have struggled in the special teams phase of the game for years now. Gruden seems to have Griffin’s back this year, which wasn’t the case last season.

On SI Now, Sports Illustrated senior writer Don Banks explains why Cleveland Browns QB Johnny Manziel will start sometime this season despite starting second on the depth chart.

On Sunday, McCloughan and Gruden were among Redskins staff members watching as two tight ends worked out in hopes of getting signed. “So, from his basic performance, just critiquing Robert, it was not even close to being good enough to what we expect from that quarterback position”.

Linebacker Will Compton has a groin injury, though Gruden joked he’d never even heard of the injury Compton suffered.

Gruden’s biggest disappointment with the way things went at camp were the health issues that cropped up, particularly in the secondary (Hall, Bashaud Breeland and David Amerson all got hurt) and at tight end (Niles Paul and Logan Paulsen are both out for the season, while Jordan Reed has missed time with a hamstring problem).

“How far away are we from winning?”

“As we said from the beginning, any way that we can impact the kids in this neighborhood, that is one of our primary goals off the field”, Allen said.

– Because of the abbreviated practice, today’s notes will be shorter than usual. Hopefully we stay healthy the rest of the way through three preseason games.
