For first-year Washington Redskins defensive backs coach Perry Fewell, the team’s three-day minicamp is all about evaluation, especially for one group within the secondary: the rookies.

“Are they going to be a two, are they going to be a three? Right now, it’s more of a review for the players,” said Fewell on Tuesday, Day 1 of Washington’s minicamp.
