Matt Jones, Trent Williams, Jordan Reed remain absent from optional workouts

ASHBURN — From rookie minicamp to organized team activities to veteran minicamp, most of the offseason work where hitting is forbidden is pretty much the same, even if the names change. Next week, when the Redskins are done with OTA’s and move on to veteran minicamp, there’s really only one change of substance.

“Not much [changes], other than Trent [Williams] and Jordan [Reed] will be here,” Redskins coach Jay Gruden said Wednesday.

Next week’s minicamp is mandatory so, presumably, those two players will return after skipping optional workouts over the past three weeks to train on their own, Williams in Oklahoma and Reed in Florida.
