Redskins by the (Jersey) Numbers: #68 - Russ Grimm

The storied history of the Washington Redskins includes a host of legendary linemen, from players of yesteryear like Turk Edwards, all the way to current stars like Trent Williams.

Naturally, debating the greatest Redskins lineman of them all is anything but clear-cut. Joe Jacoby is certainly in the conversation. So is Jim Lachey. So is Williams. So are several others spanning generations.

Russ Grimm has as strong an argument as anyone for that honor.

The Redskins drafted Grimm out of Pittsburgh in the third round of the 1981 NFL Draft.
