[MTK]

Washington Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs announced yesterday that veteran Todd Collins will be the backup quarterback based on his performance in the preseason, with former starter Mark Brunell now the No. 3 passer. It was widely assumed among the players that Collins had won the No. 2 job, with Brunell coming off surgery and struggling at times this preseason, and Gibbs informed both players of his decision yesterday before revealing it to reporters.
