Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney has had a busy schedule during Redskins training camp.
Last week, he pronounced Aug. 1 as “Morgan Moses Foundation Day” to honor the team's right tackle and his charitable work. Tuesday, he was at it again, officially deeming Aug. 8 as “Dale Earnhardt Jr. Day,” a fitting tribute to the NASCAR great and Redskins fan, whose No. 88 car matched the calendar date.
In keeping with the Redskins theme, several players – Kirk Cousins, Josh Norman, Will Compton, Morgan Moses and Ryan Kerrigan – will get a chance to ride around with Earnhardt Jr.
