Ron Rivera Presser: If you're always protecting QBs in practice, they get a little too comfortable

Ron Rivera talked about today's Washington Football Team practice that saw the defense dominate the offense. He said it wasn't all on the QB, and a lot of the veteran offensive linemen were give vet days off today. Five O L were also brought in for workouts today.

The coaches are working Alex Smith into practice more, and getting him more comfortable as he started 9 on 9's today. Kyle Allen has done a nice job, but sometimes bypasses the easy play for the sensational play. Dwayne Haskins Jr. has showed the progress Rivera is looking for, and is listening to his coaches.
