With the Redskins trailing by one and at their own 48-yard line, Washington decided to test Tress Way's arm. The result was a beautiful fake punt conversion and eventual game-winning score.
Tress Way along with the special teams coaching staff noticed a trend in New York Giants defensive back Trevin Wade every time he was in on punt coverage: he’d let go out of the opposing team’s gunner.
So with a little more than three minutes left in the third quarter of Sunday’s Week 3 matchup and the Redskins trailing by one point, Washington decided to go into its bag of tricks and have Way try and launch a ball to cornerback Quinton Dunbar.
