ASHBURN — The Washington Redskins kicked off mandatory minicamp on Tuesday with a spirited, two-hour practice at Redskins Park. There was plenty of energy during team drills from players such as quarterback Kirk Cousins and inside linebacker Will Compton, and coach Jay Gruden liked how competitive the group was.
After three weeks of organized team activities, the Redskins have two days of mandatory minicamp — the second practice will take place on Wednesday — and then they will be off until training camp begins July 28.
“I think we’ve had a great start to the season, we really have,” Gruden said.
