Isaac Redman Was The Starting RB At Practice Today

As expected, Isaac Redman was the starting Tailback in practice today. Redman, who was named starter until Bell returns from his foot injury, said he will try to make it hard for the team to go with anyone else. Bell told media today that he hopes to be back by week two, but can’t make any promises. According to Redman, the coaching staff doesn’t want to do “running back by committee” this year, and he wants to give them reason not to.

Redman suffered a stinger early in preseason and didn’t make an appearance during the remainder of the games. When asked about being injured during preseason, Redman said:

‘I could have played in the final two preseason games but I was held out by coaches.’

When asked if he was surprised about Dwyer being cut, he said, “I can’t say I was surprised…I knew somebody had to go.”
