Washington Redskins WR Josh Doctson (Achilles’) has been impressive in organized team activities, according to head coach Jay Gruden. ‘The big thing for him is the confidence in his Achilles’, and I think he’s got that right now,’ Gruden said. ‘The past two days he’s looked better and better. It looks like he can run down the field. He made a good catch down the sideline today and (he has) strong hands, we know that about him.’
Footballguys View: Doctson had tweeted out he was close to 100 percent back in March, so this is continued good news. A lot of folks thought he was the best receiver in the 2016 NFL Draft, but his Achilles injury hurt his draft stock. With DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon gone, Doctson only has Terrelle Pryor to jump over for a significant amount of targets. He’ll start behind Jordan Reed and Jamison Crowder, but that can change with a solid preseason.
