Redskins Starting Offense Could Play in Final Preseason Game

Typically, NFL starters sit out the fourth and final preseason game as the regular season looms. Yet according to News4's Dianna Russini, the Redskins starting offense may take part in a few series against the Buccaneers Thursday.

The Redskins had a poor showing Saturday against the Ravens in a 23-17 loss. Among other iffy performances, Robert Griffin III was sacked three times and his last pass attempt was intercepted. 

For a team still adjusting to a new coach in Jay Gruden and the accompanying systemic changes, perhaps a few more drives would not hurt, though there is certainly risk involved. 

Gruden will address the situation following practice Monday.
