- Linebacker Marcus Washington bounded onto the field, stopping to leap and bump chests with corner Fred Smoot; then exulting his teammates; then bouncing in the huddle. He did it Tuesday; he did it any number of days in previous practices.

Zorn confident despite injuries
- The timetables remain sketchy; the optimism is not. The Redskins are confident that several key players will return from injury, some as soon as this week.

It’s life on the learning curve
- Malcolm Kelly leaps, catches the ball and everyone’s attention. It happened on the first day of practice, with Kelly outjumping two smaller defensive backs. That’s exactly what the Redskins envision.

- Jim Zorn’s first training camp practice started with horrible news: Phillip Daniels tore his ACL 75 minutes in and was out for the season. It ended with a stunner: the Redskins had traded for Pro Bowl defensive end Jason Taylor.
