Lee remmell was this past wednesday. Kevin, you were honored for your contributions in sports broadcasting. The banquet benefits u. W. Green bay and st. Norvert College Athletics while offering scholarships to local, collegiate and high school students. Congratulations. Kevin thank you. Surprised me. Dan this is your life. Kevin its a wonderful night. People that know the great lee remmel who just passed away he was 90. They go outside on this first and 10. The catch made on the play by lee remmel over 60 years part of the Green Bay Community writing for the press gazette and working for the packers as their media director. A pickup of five. Tay get the first down down to the 32. Dan always a treat to go into lambeau and go spohis office and listen to the stories. The history and go into his office and listen to the stories. I was a 49ers fan, bart starr and the great hornung and taylor and you could name all the hall of famers. Kevin i could. You and i were ball boys for our childhood teams. Long pass downfield. Broken up incomplete looking for walters, nice coverage downfield, Isaiah Johnson out of georgia tech, undrafted rookie over there amongst the lions defending but you were a ball boy for the 49ers. I was a ball boy growing up for the packers dan i played a little ball after that. Kevin you did play a little bit, at any time you. Dan you went right into broadcasting which why you got this award. I was wasting my time. Kevin i thought you were reading the patrolo. Kevin it that you you were reading the promo. There goes a flag. I guess you did pretty good getting into the hall of fame. A pretty good story for you. People dont realize maybe that your dad referee facemask. Defense, a 15yard penalty enforced from the previous spot. First down. Kevin wootton coming in. Dan wootton, watch his hand go right to the facemask of Young Stephen morris. Kevin your dad, who i know is watching in San Francisco tonight was a long time 49er broadcaster. Thus no surprise that you got into broadcasting after your hall of fame career. Dan a few free games thanks to bob fouts and he had one of the great nicknames for a broadcaster. The red dog. Kevin i like that. Dan he used to sit in on the coaches meetings with red hickey and when they blitzed they called it the red dog. Kevin grant, 19yard pickup out of auburn. Hes been featured in the return game. Looks like hes carving his way maybe to get some time in the backfield too. Good run. First down. Jacksonville 34 of detroit. Dan youre seeing how important the dropped twopoint conversion was moments ago because the jags are now in striking distance and trailing by just five. Kevin first and 10 for morris. What a hit. That was whitehead. 59. Who delivered the goods that one. Incomplete pass. Dan ball just a little bit too hot to handle there. The big hit comes from whitehead. Whitehead, a starter, still in the game. Kevin how about that. Im looking now. He may be the lone starter regular starter who is still in there. Second down and 10. Jacksonville. Two time outs. Morris going deep and nice coverage on the play by stanford as they were going for the receiver kasey closs. Dan you couldnt cover a receiver on a deep ball better than r. J. Stanford did on this one. Gave him a lot of cushion and then shields away from the ball closs could have been called for grabbing the back of stanfords jersey. Stanford could have intercept that ball if closs did not grab his jersey. Kevin third down, six in the secondary for the lions. They find tony washington. Spins around. Brought down by diggs. Picks up seven. Takes it as far as the 27. Time out. Jacksonville with one remaining. Dan morris staying on the field with his offense. You would think that he would want to come over to the sidelines and perhaps talk to that man but you can see the communication is happening anyway with the speaker in the helmet of morris. Kevin radio communications. The lions were part of the very first nfl game where there was radio communication, in the 1950s paul brown, the cleveland head coach snuck it in under the cover of darkness in 1956 in a preseason game. Bert bell, the commissioner, outlawed it after that. Fourth down and three. Hard throw and an incomplete pass, tony washington. That will be it. That was an incompletion on fourth and three. Coverage on the play by brian suitte. Jacksonville drops to 12. Dan the benefit for beg teams tonight, we didnt see any serious injuries. Kevin good point. Dan thats the fear of both coaches and every coach in the nfl in the preseason. Kevin Kelvin Benjamin at north carolina, niles paul with the redskins. Keith pouncey with pittsburgh. A costly preseason for some of the biggest names in the game. First cut coming up tuesday getting down to 75.

Thanks for joining us. Im jan jeffcoat. A neurologist has determined that rg3 should not play tomorrow against the baltimore ravens. Lets bring in our dave owens for the latest on his status and really what changed late today . How confusing is this . What a mess for the redskins. Why in the world would they have said hes cleared to play yesterday . Questions, not answers. You used the word confusing. Im going to use bizarre because the skins, a lot of thingsmf happened this week th would lead to us believe Robert Griffin, iii would play, but 7 00 this evening an independence neurologist released a statement upon further scrutiny of the neural psychology data he says Robert Griffin will be held from game play this weekend and be retested in one to two weeks before a federal conclusion to return to game play can firm conclusion to return to game play can be made. Now here was Robert Griffin thursday talking about taking precautions from these concussions. Yeah. I think thats why were being cautious and im being cautious and going to see all the doctors and taking a thousand tests because its about my family and long term health. A lot of questions here, jan. Why was he cleared in the first place . What changed between yesterday and today when there were no contact drills . We saw Robert Griffin earlier today at Andrews Air Force base. I reached out to the team and asked them those questions. They say they dont know, but the doctors say they saw something that would lead them to believe that he should not be playing. But hes been practicing all week . Hes been practicing noncontact most of the week. He was cleared for contact drills yesterday, but something in the last 24 hours came up. They said he shouldnt play. Very quickly on social media a lot of folks believe this might be the end for him. He might not be playing anymore again. Well, and theres reto feel that way because if you dont play in the reason to feel that way buzz if you dont play in the third because if you dont play in the third preseason game which is supposed to be dress rehearsal, its going to be a very interesting next 10 days in ashburn. A lot more to come on this for sure. New tonight its been one of the most violent summers in d. C. And this Weekend Police hope their efforts help cut down the crime.

Police chief has been standing by for years and its one that her staff says has been approve to work. Its these flashing lights and heavy proven to work. Its these flashing lights and heavy Police Presence the d. C. Police chief says makes a difference. Visibility is a large part of policing efforts and a key component of prevention. Reporter to prevent more Violent Crimes like this triple shooting is the goal and all hand on deck this weekend puts every d. C. Officer on the streets for 48 hours. Sometimes that means we have to be uncomfortable and open to changing our shifts and doing what we have to do to protect our community. Reporter but in order to protect people this weekend, the president of the police union said everyones schedule changed last week, some working 10 Straight Days which she says is not effective crime fighting. In fact it, probably does the opposite because it creates such a machine power shortage during the middle manpower shortage during the middle of week in order to staff the weekends. Reporter despite what the union argues, some say ahod is a tactic that makes sense. On average there is a 10 in Violent Crime when we use ahod. Reporter and every officer out patrolling have another responsibility this weekend to, vote on how they think police chief cathy lanier is doing. Why not do it on a weekend when everybody has to work. Reporter and some more eager to give their opinions . We have a toxic environment when it comes to discipline, when it comes to the ability to do your jobs. Reporter the police union said theyll be polling their members on their confidence in their Police Chiefs job on sunday and that its all done online and confidential and is collected by a third party.

Always watching always tracking, wusa9s first alert weather, d. C. s most accurate. All right. Weve been on a pretty big winning streak with the 3 degree guarantee. Yeah. 15 day winning streak on the line. How did we do . We did well. We didnt hit it exactly. I didnt doubt you for once. It was not a bulls eye. I forecast 80 five and we were 80 85 and we were 83. Look at you. This is a good streak. Its a little easier sometime in the summertime High Pressure, but im not going to discount it nonetheless. Thats 17 in a row, 38 of the last 41. If only the nats were close to that. Yeah, dave will have the news coming up in a few minutes. I dont think youre going to like it. 73 right now and light winds at 5. Its going to be more humid and warmer than it has been, 73 in town, 70 on the bay. Cool spots mid to upper 60s and if you recall last night at this time, frederick was way in the 50s. Theyre 9 degrees warmer than it was. Does it seem warmer . It is warmer by a good in most places 5 to 9 degrees west of town while were actually a couple degrees cooler at reagan national. The weather headlines on this friday night, summer is not over by any stretch. Low 90s are coming back by sunday. I think theyll stay around a while, maybe most of next week. Humidity creeps up. Unfortunately rain chances are staying low. We had quite a bit of rain in june and july and things have just dried up big time the last few weeks. Speaking of big time, there are big time storms here northwest of chicago, but thats staying away from us as High Pressure over new york state and pennsylvania protecting us from the rain giving us the nice weather, but as this high moves away, we will see as i said, the southerly wind kick in and then well warm up and moisten up. Look at this. This is erika. Going over cuba this will lose a lot of steam, down to a tropical depression according to the Hurricane Centers forecast by saturday evening. It may fall apart completely and just be a tropical wave. It does have a chance when it gets back into the gulf to potentially strengthen a little bit, but this will not be a hurricane more than likely and probably going to be just a rainmaker here because it will be slowly moving into florida the last few days. The guidance continues to push it off to the west. Looking at the beach forecast, looks fine the next few days, low to mid80s next weekend, tonight upper 80s of tonight clear to partly cloudy, patchy fog late, upper 50s to upper 60s. Tomorrow morning looks good, sunny, 60s and 70s, rise to 85 to 90, 80 probably fredericksburg, 88 in d. C. , not too humid. Slight storm chance sunday and monday, 92 and after this we stay in the low 90s much of the coming week with low rain chances. September feeling like july. Oh, here we go. All right. Thanks, howie. Here we go. Here we go again with the redskins, right . Circus, bizarre, its been everything am coming up its been a crazy everything. Coming up its been a crazy couple of hours in aspen. Robert griffin speaking to social media, th now wusa9 game on sports with dave owens brought to you by xfinity. Listen, when you cover washington football, you just got to buckle up because this franchise will take you on a roller coaster ride. Robert griffin cleared to play yesterday, now he isnt.
