Don't worry, Derrick Frost, we'll find you someone to compete with!
Just as soon as the Redskins signed punter Eddie Johnson, he had a can of Miller Lite fall on him for saying his leg was tired after ONE WHOLE DAY of practicing, so the Redskins had to let him go. I mean, how bad do you want the job if you can't fight through one day's worth of aches and pains? For a measly $5,000 (in which he probably got more, maybe), I'll kick the pigskin around for three days straight and pretend my leg was okay even when I was on a crutch.
The Redskins might bring in NFL veteran punter Toby Gowin to compete with Frost. Gowin was beat out by Johnson to get first crack at the job so that's not saying much. Two weeks before the season starts and we have one kicker in camp who kicks a beautiful ball, out of bounds or out the back of the end zone every now and again.
With the looks of the offense so far, the punter just may play a huge role in the games. Field position is critical, no matter how suffocating our defense can be. Giving up just 10 yards on a shanked punt eliminates three more plays that have to be executed perfectly for the opponents and adds three more plays to our defense which is already suffering some major injuries.
I wonder if Mr. Utility Antwaan Randle El can punt?
