ASHBURN, Va., --The move was like many Jordan Reed had made in the past: a linebacker goes lunging one way and the Washington Redskins tight end darts another. This time, the culprit was linebacker Zach Brown.
Reed then caught the pass from quarterback Kirk Cousins, who let Brown know he shouldn’t feel bad.
“Happens to anybody Zach! Happens to anybody!” the quarterback shouted.
Yes, it does. Later, it happened to corner Josh Norman when Reed got behind the linebackers vs. a cover three look in a two-minute drill, catching the ball for a touchdown.
It certainly proved to be a reminder of Reed’s role in the offense.
