ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- When Ricky Jean Francois sits at home with fellow defensive end Corey Crawford, he's quick to quiz him on blitzes and situations.
Jean Francois just wants everyone on the Washington Redskins' defense to be prepared.
Every snap counts for the Redskins this training camp, especially on defense where newcomers Josh Norman and David Bruton Jr. are joining a unit that ranked 28th in the NFL last season.
Training camp, which opens July 28 in Richmond, Virginia, is the first chance for the new-look defense to come together around returners such as Jean Francois, safety DeAngelo Hall and linebacker Ryan Kerrigan.
