ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins linebacker Zach Brown responded to a guarantee about the season opener -- and probably won over fans of his new team in the process.
Philadelphia Eagles tackle Lane Johnson, in the Players' Tribune, wrote, "Let me tell you what's going to happen in a couple of weeks: This team is going to go down to D.C. and whup some ass against the Redskins."
Not everyone gets bothered by another player making a guarantee. In truth, any player should feel they'll win whatever game they play; it's also rare for someone to boast about whupping "some ass".
