McAuliffe’s concession that Virginia may not become home to the Redskins was uncharacteristic, as he has actively advocated for the team’s move to his state. He will also co-host a monthly one-hour show on Fridays during the season, where he’ll provide a detailed look at the Redskins performance.

Chris Cooley has been away from the field a few years now, and it appears it may be a few too long. Cooley is still just 33 and if he works out with the Cardinals and they like what they see, he could be an option to make the team out of camp.

He has a daughter, Sloane, at home, who isn’t even a year old yet.
