Redskins Prepare To Open First Training Camp Under Zorn
Posted by Matt Loede on July 18th, 2008 filed in NewsThe Redskins are about to open their first training camp under coach Jim Zorn. The former quarterback with the Seattle Seahawks officially takes over for Joe Gibbs as head of the Burgundy and Gold after a series of minicamps and Organized Training Activities. Washington will kick off the preseason with the Indianapolis Colts, minus injured quarterback Peyton Manning. The regular season opener is September 4 against the Super Bowl champion New York Giants in Giants Stadium. Also, Don Breaux is retiring as an assistant coach due to a heart problem. Breaux spent 17 years with the franchise as an assistant, including two stints under Gibbs. He was running backs coach from 1981 to 1993 and offensive coordinator from 2004 to 2007.
