The return of Paul Richardson will be a welcome addition this fall

DAYTONA BEACH Wes Martin Jersey , Fla. (AP) — Joe Gibbs was in the second season of owning his eponymous race team when the stress of a tight race at the Daytona 500 hit him.His relatively inexperienced son was working in the pits and needed to be flawless with team driver Dale Jarrett leading the race. Sure enough, Jarrett pulled in to his stall and tire changer J.D Gibbs would have to rise to the performance of his career.“I was looking for some place to throw up,” Joe Gibbs said.The younger Gibbs fastened three lug nuts — he needed five — dropped the Chevrolet and the crew sent the car on its way. A fellow tire changer asked Gibbs if three lug nuts were enough to get Jarrett a Daytona 500 championship.“We’re getting ready to find out,” Joe Gibbs recalled his son saying.Jarrett did win Daytona and the 1993 victory helped launch Joe Gibbs Racing into one of the premier teams in NASCAR. J.D. Gibbs was there from the ground floor through the championship seasons, a proud son and visionary behind the stellar career of several NASCAR stars.Joe Gibbs has been touched by support from the NASCAR community since J.D., his eldest son, died last month following a long battle with a degenerative neurological disease. He was 49.“I think J.D. was living a godly life and was touching so many people,” Gibbs said Friday. “It’s come back over and over again.”JGR driver Denny Hamlin is dedicating this NASCAR season to J.D.’s memory. The younger Gibbs discovered Hamlin at a late-model test at Hickory Motor Speedway in North Carolina in the early 2000s.Hamlin’s charity is donating $111 to the J.D. Gibbs Legacy Fund for each lap he leads in the No. 11 Toyota in 2019. Hamlin also hopes to dedicate a victory to Gibbs, preferably at Daytona. The Gibbs family has set up a legacy fund at Jdgibbslegacy.com.“I don’t want to let J.D. down,” Gibbs said. “We really appreciate how many people here prayed. This is a close-knit family in a lot of ways. So many people have stepped up to help us.”Gibbs played defensive back and quarterback at William & Mary from 1987-90 while his father coached the Washington Redskins, a team he led to three Super Bowl titles. He transitioned into NASCAR and the family business when the elder Gibbs launched his NASCAR team in 1992.Gibbs was eventually co-chairman of JGR, but began with the organization as a part-time driver and over-the-wall crew member. He made 13 NASCAR national series starts between 1998 and 2002. He stepped away from JGR in 2015 when it was announced he was suffering from “conditions related to brain function.” He was president of JGR at the time.Gibbs’s favorite number was 11 and Fox Sports said there would be a tribute lap on lap 11 during the broadcast of Sunday’s Daytona 500.Gibbs was survived by wife Melissa and four sons.“J.D. lives on Womens Bryce Love Jersey ,” Gibbs said. “He lives on in us. Those four boys. His family and all those that he’s touched.” Last week, the Redskins saw a significant upgrade at wide receiver via rounds three and six of the 2019 NFL Draft.

In those rounds, came speedster Terry McLaurin and Bully Kelvin Harmon. Both prospects were, at one time or another, projected as high as round two in the draft. Both were able to be secured for picks after round two, and the Redskins and their fans came out thinking they may have gotten two very good young players at a bargain.McLaurin, who at 6’0” 208 pounds, ran a 4.35 40 at the combine, while adding a 37.5 inch vertical and 18 reps at 225 pounds. He was a bit un-heralded coming out of Ohio State, but many talent evaluates claimed he was the best draftable receiver on the Buckeyes. Aside from having great speed https://www.theredskinslockerroom.com/authentic-terry-mclaurin-jersey , McLaurin is known for running detailed routes, having very solid hands, throwing great blocks downfield, being a special teams demon, and a lead-by-example guy in the locker room. My NFL comparison for him is Pierre Garcon. Later on in the draft, the Redskins landed N.C. State’s Kelvin Harmon. Standing at nearly 6’3” and weighing over 220 pounds, Harmon bullies smaller defensive backs with his physicality and work in and out of his stem. He knows how to use his body, and adjusts well to balls thrown into coverage. He also tracks the ball very well on over-the-shoulder passes, and has been a big redzone threat for the Wolfpack. Harmon posted back-to-back 1000 yard receiving seasons at N.C. State before deciding to forgo his senior season and enter the NFL Draft. Many draft pundits had him ranked as one of the best receivers in this class, before a less-than-stellar combine dropped him a bit. My NFL comparison for him is the Saints Michael Thomas, who also had a slower 40 yard dash, but uses his body and strong hands to win against coverage. The question now becomes Montez Sweat Jersey , should the Redskins let both young receivers learn the NFL game on the go with new signal caller Dwayne Haskins?It’s important for a young quarterback to develop chemistry with his receivers. It’s evident that Josh Doctson is not in the team’s long-term plans, so having the fourth year pro developing a connection with Haskins will be a short-lived one. The team did re-sign Brian Quick before the draft to give the Redskins the bigger body they so desired, but with Harmon now in the fold, and Cam Sims healthy, Quick may be a afterthought. but the former Seahawk speedster will have to prove he can stay healthy if he expects to make significant contributions on offense. The other wild-card is Trey Quinn, who was last year’s Mr. Irrelevant. Quinn is expected to compete for the open slot receiver position vacated when Jamison Crowder left via free agency. His rookie year was cut short due to injury, so he’ll have to prove he’s ready to take on the rigors of a full 16-game season this fall.Many fans liked what they saw last year in the preseason from Alabama rookie Cam Sims. He could also factor into the mix on the outside with a strong training camp. It’s been a while since the Redskins have had a true number one receiving target. It’s been an eternity since the team has had a young quarterback to go along with talented young receivers.This year, the Redskins could have the luxury of having both, and have the opportunity to have them develop and grow together.If Haskins earns the start at quarterback to begin the season, it may benefit the Redskins in the long-term to have both rookies learning at his side.What a luxury this could truly become!
