According to Redskins HC Jay Gruden, franchise QB Kirk Cousins is “getting better, more comfortable” in his third year as the team’s starting quarterback.
“He’s just getting better, more comfortable,” Gruden said, via John Keim of ESPN. “Obviously we see how accurate he is with the football. He can throw any type of ball you want — a deep ball, a crossing pass, a short pass, he’s got great accuracy.”
“Now that he understands the protections, he feels more comfortable in the pocket, the scheme, what plays we like versus what coverage, what audibles we want to get to versus certain blitzes and looks,” Gruden said.
