We say that with a question mark. Why? Indeed, 7th round draft pick MarkoMitchell is listed as active and appears to be ready to make his NFL debut today against Atlanta. The question that comes to mind is — will the Redskins simply have Mitchell active or will they actually throw to Mitchell? Blogs [...]
... Sacks: 0 FF: 0 FR: 0 Pass Deflec: 0 Season : Tackles: 6 Assists: 2, Sacks: 0 FF: 0 FR: 0 PD: 0 WR MarkoMitchell : It is nice to see Mitchell not appear on the practice squad. Step one — check. Now, the Redskins need to take step two, throw him the ball. WR Devin Thomas is starting to show signs of developing into a decent receiver. He is getting catches and gaining impressive...
... First post-game interview scrum of the year, and Jones shows up with a white Nats cap. Loved it. MarkoMitchell wears Nats caps virtually every week, but he always says it's because of color coordination. I asked Jones why he went Nats. "That's what they had at Lids that looked good," he said. Serious: Jones has longstanding ties with several members of the Skins. For example,...
The Washington Redskins had two players fail to stat in the Week 10 win over the Broncos. Receiver MarkoMitchell played but did not record any catches and backup QB Todd Collins did not get into the game.
One of the questions we receive most on Redskins Nation -- not as often as the ones about MarkoMitchell , I don't think, but still pretty often -- are about potential changes to the Redskins uniform. Whether people just want to discuss burgundy jerseys over burgundy pants (I'm opposed), white jerseys over white pants (indifferent), or going full throwback (I'm in favor), it's something...
... ever closer. Here are some more details . Homer McFanboy has been agitating for playing time for MarkoMitchell all season. Now he's asking around the locker room for reviews of Mitchell's two catches -- including Malcolm Kelly 's, which I found particularly interesting. The Redskins 360 blog at the Washington Times has a recap of radio appearances by Clinton Portis and DeAngelo...
... I was out that long. Thought I just got hit and got back up." One of the "they" was MarkoMitchell . "I told him," Mitchell said. " I was fixin' to run out there, the way he was. He was like" -- Mitchell demonstrated Moss's spread-out pose. "He thought he just got hit and shook it off. I was like, no you did NOT. You lay there...
... the enormity of his salary and cap number, doesn’t make the Redskins better at all. Kudos to WR MarkoMitchell , who, though long overdue, finally got on the field in limited action. He caught two passes for 22 yards. A quick glance at the stats reveals that Devin Thomas caught nothing and Malcolm Kelly had 1 catch for a whopping 4 yards. Now that team management has gotten over the...
... active on Sunday. (And, before anyone asks, I haven't heard any news about more playing time for MarkoMitchell this week.) But it's not just this year's rookies that find themselves at a potential crossroads; the big three from last year -- Fred Davis , Devin Thomas , and Malcolm Kelly -- also need to represent in Atlanta. Davis cancelled his planned bye week vacation to stick around...
... be. One think I think the Redskins could do to improve the offense is to give 7th round draft pick MarkoMitchell an opportunity to play. I don't foresee it though because that would mean GM Vinny Cerrato would have to swallow some pride and at least partially admit that Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly aren't getting the job done again, now in their second seasons. To replace Williamson...
... It was like ‘06 out there! Rocky McIntosh — Made a nice pick, the first by anyone other than Hall. MarkoMitchell — Preseason star gets some PT, catches two balls. Brian Orakpo – Recorded two sacks; has 5.5 on the season. Knob Creek – It helps. Kenny, Moose and Goose — Credit where credit’s due: They called a good game. Moose caught Doughty’s offsides before the snap. Goose called...
