And by the way...suspending a guy for pot the same as PEDs is really ridiculous.
Hell, pot is legal in some states. Using PEDs is cheating in all states and all legit sports!!
I know...someone will respond with -- "but all the players know the rules" -- and I don't disagree but come on, the penalty should fit the crime.
I'd rather see the guy do community service, help kids by requiring them to visit schools and talk about it. Telling them to take a year off and don't show your face. Really?
Cheaters -- yes.

Latest news I have:
Tanard Jackson eligible for reinstatement, but no immediate action by NFL
Rambo was no Rambo on Monday night. They made him look like a ... ROOKIE. Not a strong starter YET. He will get better but not immediately.
Jackson's chances are good now with Thomas' and Meriweather's injuries.

Man its so hard not to asking about Tanard every day. He's not a long term solution though, but you can say the same for Meriweather.
Cut Rambo? He's a rookie draft pick dude, chillax. He's not fun to watch right now sure, but its going to take some time for us to see "who" he becomes through the season. I know its frustrating.

6 months ago, Irn Bru asked, "What's the deal with this guy?"
That's what I want to ask today...
Come on NFL, the guy smoked a little weed, let him back...jeez. Von Miller cheated on a pee test and got 6 games...you freaking kidding me?
NFL -- heck, why don't you just take $36 mil from us too!! Wait, they already did that.
Rogggeeeerrrr -- Let Jackson back!!!

A little weed or a lot of weed, who cares, its just weed...
Sincerely,
Non weed smoker.

I hate to say it, but there's no chance in hell Jackson would be a sustainable solution for us at safety at this point. Look how rusty Merriweather has been, and he's been playing football for months. Had we been able to bring Tanard in first thing, maybe he'd have the time to get into Sunday shape. Now, there's no way.
Another season of just gritting our teeth and bearing an awful secondary. Too bad we don't have a top 3 offense to compensate for it again this year.

The Redskins have added former Michigan State safety Trenton Robinson on Monday night and released safety Jordan Pugh today
Robinson, who was a Spartans captain along with Kirk Cousins, spent five weeks on the Eagles’ practice squad before being released Oct. 8. The 23-year-old appeared in three games for the 49ers in 2012. Pugh appeared in three games for the Redskins but was inactive Sunday night.
