WASHINGTON (AP) — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Redskins are taking completely different approaches to their final preseason game Thursday night.
The Buccaneers are treating it as a typical last exhibition. Coach Raheem Morris says he’ll rest most, if not all, of his starters.
Redskins coach Mike Shanahan did that last year, but this year he feels his starters need the extra work because of the missed offseason practices caused by the NFL lockout.
Plus, the Redskins have yet to settle on a starting quarterback for the regular season. The game gives John Beck and Rex Grossman one last chance to win the job.
