RICHMOND, Va. - Following the team's first off day of training camp, the Redskins are back on the field and back in pads Monday at the Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center.
"Overall, I think I've been impressed with a lot of guys," Redskins head coach Jay Gruden explained while giving his early impressions of camp. "But now, this is where, this is what separates the men from the boys, so to speak. And we'll see today. I've been impressed with all of them. There's really nobody that I can just say has no chance at this point. I'm excited to see how they do today.”
News 3, Hampton Roads home of the Redskins, continues its comprehensive coverage of training camp 2017 with live coverage on air and online Monday.

I write of a WUCWO-inspired collaboration between a woman in Cameroon (Africa) and myself. We became acquainted at the World Union of Catholic Women’s Organizations (WUCWO) 2006 General Assembly in Arlington, Virginia which was an effort for both of us to attend.
As International Concerns Chair for my Diocesan CCW it is a privilege to choose and present a particular global need to our membership for their support. I prayed that the Assembly would provide opportunity as I prepared to travel to Virginia. Our hotel was filled with 800 of the most beautifully diverse women I’d ever seen, the joy present was tangible.

Former Essendon footballer and senior coach Mark Thompson has been arrested and charged with drug related offences following police raids on his home earlier this year.
Thompson faced Melbourne Magistrates Court on Tuesday afternoon where he was released on $20,000 bail, and was forced to surrender his passport and live at a fixed address after prosecutors sighted him as a flight risk.
“Mr Thompson has access to a large amount of funds and a yacht as well,” News.com.au reports Detective Senior-Constable Naomi Bourke said.
Victorian police allege ice pipes and ecstasy tablets were found inside Thompson’s bedroom during a police raid on his home in Janurary.
They claim Thompson’s DNA was found on packaging containing 33g of ice, 4.2g of amphetamines and an LSD tablet inside his locked bedroom.
The raid on Thompson’s bedroom also uncovered digital scales, resealable bags and Xanax tablets in the AFL legends bedroom.
Speaking on Footy Classified former teammate Matthew Lloyd expressed concern for his long-time friend.
“He was my first ever captain and one of the most respected people I’ve ever been involved with in football,” Lloyd told Footy Classified.
Thompson’s former housemate, Thomas Windsor, is facing charges of trafficking commercial quantities of amphetamine and ice as well as trafficking ecstasy.
The much-travelled Jetwings has made his way back to Gerald Ryan&apos;s stable via Hong Kong and New Zealand with the trainer hoping to resurrect his career in Sydney.
Ryan will decide after the gelding gallops on Tuesday morning whether he runs at Randwick on Saturday or is held over for another week.
The trainer is hoping he can make a successful return like the recently retired Washington Heights who won three races including the Group Two Shannon Stakes when he returned from Hong Kong last year.
Unlike Washington Heights, Jetwings has had to take the long way home because of Australian quarantine protocols introduced in 2017 over the Conghua Training Centre in China.
Because of the movement of horses between the centre and Hong Kong, Australian officials are not satisfied with the quarantine arrangements and horses returning from Hong Kong have to spend six months in another country, mainly New Zealand, before they can come back across the Tasman.
"He then went back to Hong Kong and won again but this time he couldn&apos;t come straight back so he went to New Zealand.
"He had a couple of starts there but hated the wet tracks so now the six months is up he is back in Sydney.
"I&apos;ll wait and see how he gallops in the morning before I decide whether to run him in the Benchmark 80 over 1000 metres on Saturday or not.
Trained by Richard Gibson in Hong Kong, Jetwings was unplaced in two starts for Lance O&apos;Sullivan and Andrew Scott on wet tracks in New Zealand.
Ryan will run Nuke in the Rosebud Prelude (1000m) at Randwick hoping to get another win from the gelding before the end of his two-year-old season.
Two-time champion Andy Murray withdrew from Wimbledon with a "heavy heart" after saying his right hip was still not ready for the demands of a Grand Slam.
The 31-year-old Scot made a comeback last month at Queen&apos;s Club following almost a year out with the injury that required surgery in Australia in January.
While he lost his opening comeback match against Australia&apos;s Nick Kyrgios at Queen&apos;s Club, he beat Stan Wawrinka at Eastbourne last week before losing to new British number one Kyle Edmund.
During a news conference on Saturday the former world number one sounded hopeful about his chances of being ready to face Frenchman Benoit Paire in the first round on Tuesday.
"It is with a heavy heart that I&apos;m announcing that I&apos;ll be withdrawing from Wimbledon this year," he said on Twitter on Sunday.
"I&apos;ve made significant progress in practice and in matches over the last 10 days, but after lengthy discussions with my team we&apos;ve decided that playing best-of-five-set matches might be a bit too soon in the recovery process.
On a more positive note Murray said he would start practising on hard courts on Monday and would now target a return in the U.S. hardcourt season.
Murray&apos;s withdrawal is a big blow for the tournament especially as he appeared to be moving towards full fitness.
Murray now faces the prospect of losing virtually all of his ranking points having reached the quarter-finals last year where he hobbled to defeat against American Sam Querrey.
