Life In Ashburn: Transitioning To The Redskins

“It’s kind of like I’m Jason Bourne,” says cornerback Will Blackmon, describing his month-long experience with the Redskins.

“My mindset is I’m here on business to make an impact the year I’m here,” he says. “Hopefully whatever happens later, happen in my best interest…I just come here, wait for my alarm to go off…and try to kick ass, dude.”

That last statement might have the most to do with Bourne, but the analogy also extends to Blackmon’s frequent pit stops in different cities, riding a free agent carousel that can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster in what’s become the latter half of his career.
