Redskins have hired Phillip Daniels as Director of Player Development

That is great news! I think he'll help maintain the high character mentality in the locker room. They are really, really putting an emphasis on that this year (along with last) and I like it.

Nice.

Redskins have hired Phillip Daniels as Director of Player Development

What will his responsibilities be? Will this essentially be a role in which he is kind of a mentor in young players' lives? IE how to invest your money, how to be a professional, etc.?

If that's the case, I think this is a good move for us. PD always brought a leadership role to the Skins while he was here, and now he can continue to do so for us while not taking up roster space.

Exactly mooby

I wish the Skins would hire me as Redskins Players Social Chair and a nice budget to work with. I would do it, but I kinda want the character from Park & Rec Aziz Asari plays to assist me with it. be like a liaison between the players and Phillip Daniels.

Finally somebody laid the smackdown on Chris Carter.

At the biggest moments, Carter was the smallest. There are no great performances like Jerry Rice in the Super Bowl. No memorable moments like Lynn Swann’s Super Bowl catches. Carter didn’t change the game in any significant way.

On top of that, he’s one of the most arrogant human beings you will encounter. He talks down to everyone, including his cohorts at ESPN. It’s not just reporters who he literally looks down his nose at, it’s fellow players. There’s a great story out there about Carter pulling his “I played the game” maneuver on an agent one time while a former teammate of Carter’s stood by.

After Carter walked away, the former teammate walked up to the agent and said, “I know how you feel, half the guys in the locker room wanted to kick his ass.”

It got off to a good start, then it fizzled my nizzle.
