TAMPA — As Mack Brown rumbled across midfield and eyed the three defenders in front of him, one thought came to mind.
“Finish,” Brown said.
“Run faster,” left tackle Takoby Cofield chimed in as he walked past Brown postgame to the team bus.
Brown certainly did, sprinting well past his three pursuers and finished his 60-yard touchdown run in the Washington Redskins‘ 20-13 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the preseason finale on Wednesday.
The second-year running back from Florida, who was on the Redskins practice squad last season and is vying for a spot on the 53-man roster, carried the ball 19 times for 149 yards.
