RICHMOND — Trotting off the Redskins field after practice Thursday, Su’a Cravens used the animal kingdom to analogize the difference between his current position, safety, and the one he filled in last season, linebacker.
“Linebackers are different because they’re wolves, so wolves carry a different attitude than most,” Cravens explained. “The DB’s, we dogs. A dog is a lot similar to a wolf, but we’ve got our own attitude, we like to be consistent, we like to be aggressive, we like to attack.”
Hmm. In case you’re wondering how an aggressive, attacking mentality would differentiate a dog from a wolf, fellow safety D.
