'Tough pill to swallow:' Redskins digest another year without playoffs

NASHVILLE — For nearly 45 minutes after Saturday’s 25-16 loss to the Tennesee Titans, Josh Norman sat on his stool in Washington’s locker room with his grass-stained uniform still on and with his head buried in his hands. The Redskins cornerback barely moved.

Throughout that time, Ryan Kerrigan described how the defeat was one of his toughest in his career. Mason Foster was also stunned, staring off into the distance before composing himself to speak to reporters. An angry D.J. Swearinger ripped defensive coordinator Greg Manusky — blasting the team’s defensive playcalling late that ultimately saw the Titans recapture a 19-16 lead.
