- Redskins call ugly defeat at hands of Broncos a ‘wake-up call’
- Redskins HC Jay Gruden impressed with Adrian Peterson’s debut. Former Pro Bowl running back Adrian Peterson made his debut with the Washington Redskins on Friday night where he put up a solid performance in his limited action. It appears to have left a strong impression on head coach Jay Gruden, who voiced after the game that he was encouraged by Peterson’s hard running style that he displayed against the Denver Broncos defense, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. “I saw a big guy running pretty hard really,” Jay Gruden told reporters. “He had a five-yard average I believe, had a couple good bounces, and, you know, the thing I like about some of his runs is they look like they’re like gains of ones [yard] and he’d fall forward for a gain of three. The first run of the day I thought it was a three-yard gain and he ends up second and three. . . . I was impressed with Adrian and the way he ran.”
