Through two preseason games, Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins has only thrown and completed five passes, a statistic that will change significantly this Friday night against the Bills when the first-team offense receives a majority of the snaps (unlike last week, when a majority of the first team received zero snaps).
As Cousins approaches this dress-rehearsal, in which head coach Jay Gruden says he’ll play at least a half, he’s feeling much more confident about his readiness despite the lack of game reps under center.
“I feel like I’ve thrown a lot more than five passes because of how many reps I’m getting every day in practice,” Cousins said.
