Redskins Head Coach Jay Gruden spoke with Twin Cities media members via conference call this week in addition to his podium sessions with media in Washington. Gruden touched on a number of topics related to his upcoming opponent, including the Vikings revamped offensive line.
Gruden can relate to Minnesota’s 2016 season in which the offensive line was hit by a barrage of injuries. Washington’s offensive line has struggled to stay healthy this season, with all five of its starters listed on this week’s injury report. Starting left tackle Trent Williams and backup Ty Nsekhe both have been sidelined, which could lead to the Vikings seeing a familiar face in T.
