GAME RELEASEALUMNI CENTERFormally organized in 1958, the Washington Redskins AlumniAssociation was the first organization of its kind in the country.The organization spearheaded the alumni movement among formerprofessional football players and was the model for other alumnigroups that later formed in all NFL cities. Now entering its 58thyear, the Alumni Association continues to celebrate those who havecontributed to more than eight decades of Redskins football datingback to the team’s inception in 1932.The primary objectives of the Redskins Alumni are promoting acontinuing interest in current and past players of the WashingtonRedskins, as well as promoting and fostering interest and funding for charitable purposes. With respect to the latter, the alumniconduct fundraising events to raise money that can be donated tocharitable organizations or used in other ways to help improve thequality of life for youth in the Greater Washington community.Today, Redskins alumni continue to make their presence knownthroughout the community. As a very active chapter of the NFLAlumni Association, their motto is “Caring for Kids.” In addition tothe numerous events and appearances Redskins Alumni participate in throughout the year, they hold two major fundraising eventsof their own — the Redskins Alumni Charity Golf Classic, now in its38th year, and the annual Washington Redskins Welcome HomeLuncheon, now in its 55th year.The alumni have an office at Redskins Park and can be reachedat 703-726-7488. Since his arrival in Washington in December of2009, President Bruce Allen has made it a priority to build a bridgeto the franchise’s historic past. During the Redskins’ NFC East titlewinning season in 2012, that mission came to the forefront as theteam celebrated its 80th anniversary.“This year, the Washington Redskins will be celebrating our 80thanniversary season. I’m proud to be with the franchise in our nation’s capital, one with such a rich tradition and gloried past on andoff the field,” Allen said in a July 2012 column filling in for SportsIllustrated’s Peter King. “The current Redskins players, coaches,fans and staff owe a big debt of gratitude to the people who havemade the Redskins one of the flagship franchises in sports.”Throughout the 2012 offseason, the Redskins traversed theWashington D.C./Maryland/Virginia area as part of the team’s‘Thank You Tour,’ which brought players, coaches, alumni, cheerleaders, team officials and more to fans throughout the entire region to help celebrate the team’s historic heritage.That heritage continues to be honored amongst the game’s elite,as in August 2011, former Redskin great Chris Hanburger was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. He waspresented by his son, Chris. Hanburger was voted into the Hall afterbeing a nominee of the seniors committee. In all, he waited 28 yearsto be elected.Hanburger joined Darrell Green (2008), Art Monk (2008) andRuss Grimm (2010) to make four players who spent the majorityof their careers with the Redskins to earn the honor in a four-yearspan. In addition, former Redskins Bruce Smith (2009) and DeionSanders (2011) have also been elected over that time. Hanburgersaid of his election to the Hall of Fame: “It’s wonderful, I’m overwhelmed. It’s just such a tremendous honor to even be nominated,let alone be voted in. You have to think about all of the men thatplayed before I did, certainly the men that I played with and against,and then you look at the guys playing now. It’s just a select few thatmake it in. I was fortunate to play with players on the Redskins defense that made it all work for me.”On Wednesday, Aug. 31, the Washington Redskins CharitableFoundation and Redskins Alumni Association hosted the 55th annual Welcome Home Luncheon at the Hilton McLean in Tyson’s Corner. The annual event celebrates the burgundy and gold and kicksoff each football season with Redskins players, coaches and alumni.The Redskins Welcome Home Luncheon is typically the onlyannual event where fans and corporate partners have the chanceto spend time with the entire Redskins team. Each table is usuallyguaranteed at least one player or coach seated with the attendees.Proceeds from the event benefit the youth programs of the Washington Redskins Charitable Foundation and Redskins Alumni Association.22016 WASHINGTON REDSKINS GAME INFORMATIONThis year, the Redskins used the event to honor their players forcontributions both on and off the field. Quarterback Kirk Cousinsearned 2015 Bobby Mitchell Offensive Player of the Year presentedby STS International, defensive end Chris Baker earned the 2015Sam Huff Defensive Player of the Year presented by comScoreand kicker Dustin Hopkins received the 2015 Mark Moseley SpecialTeams Player of the Year Award presented by MGM National Harbor. Other presented awards included the Redskins Salute Awardpresented by Lockheed Martin for efforts with the military and theRedskins Community Man of the Year presented by WashingtonFirst Bank.Also among the Redskins Alumni Association’s premier eventsis the team’s annual Alumni Homecoming celebration, which theRedskins hosted in Week 10 this season against the Minnesota Vikings. Not including staff and coaches, players in attendance during the weekend represented more than 650 combined seasons ofRedskins service, 110 combined Super Bowl appearances, 69 combined Super Bowl titles, 34 members of the 80 Greatest Redskins,23 Redskins Ring of Famers and nine Pro Football Hall of Famers.This year, the Redskins used their 2016 Alumni Homecomingweekend to honor former General Manager Bobby Beathard with induction in the Ring of Fame. The honor was announced by PresidentBruce Allen during training camp at the Bon Secours WashingtonRedskins Training Center in Richmond.Beathard’s illustrious career as an NFL executive included 11seasons as General Manager of the Redskins from 1978-88. Aftertaking the job on Feb. 24, 1978, Beathard guided the organization tothree Super Bowl appearances, including victories in Super BowlsXVII and XXII. Many of the players he acquired remained on the roster for the team’s Super Bowl XXVI victory as well.In Beathard’s 11 seasons as General Manager, the Redskins averaged 9.5 wins a year. The team posted a regular season winningpercentage of .625 (105-63) in that time frame, best in the NFC andsecond-best in the NFL. No team in that time frame posted a betterpostseason winning percentage than the Redskins, who went 11-3in postseason play in his tenure for a winning percentage of .786.“This is a wonderful occasion for us, and a real honor to bebrought back here by Bruce and Dan,” Beathard said in August. “Ofall the years I was in the NFL, this organization has been the mostsupportive and the most fun. I’ve never been with an organizationwho has done this much for the people in it at present and the people who were in it in the past.”WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP LEGACYThe Washington Redskins’ five World Championships are tied forfifth-most in NFL history.Franchise1.

The annual contest of the NFL's best will take place Sunday, Jan. 29, 2017, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla.In addition, returner Jamison Crowder, quarterback Kirk Cousinsand cornerback Josh Norman were selected as alternates.The Redskins’ four selections for the 2016 season are the team’smost since 2012 (five). With the selections this year, the Redskinshave now had at least one Pro Bowl player for 23 straight seasons.The only year Washington has not had a Pro Bowler in the game’shistory was 1993.Kerrigan’s selection is the second of his career and his firstsince 2012. His selection marks the sixth season in the last eightyears that at least one Redskins linebacker has earned Pro Bowlhonors.Kerrigan has started all 95 regular season games for Washington since being selected with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2011NFL Draft. His 95 consecutive starts are the second-longest activestreak among NFL linebackers, trailing only Pittsburgh’s LawrenceTimmons.For his career, Kerrigan has recorded 58.5 sacks, third-most bya member of the Redskins since the NFL adopted sacks as an official statistic in 1982. He is only the fifth player in NFL history toopen a career with at least 7.5 sacks in each of his first six seasons,joining Jared Allen, Derrick Thomas, DeMarcus Ware and ReggieWhite.This season, Kerrigan, 28, has recorded 11.0 sacks and twoforced fumbles. With a 13.5-sack performance in 2013 and his 11.0sacks in 2016, he became the fifth member of the Redskins to postmultiple 10-sack seasons since 1982 (Dexter Manley, 4; CharlesMann, 4; Andre Carter, 2; Brian Orakpo, 2).Reed’s selection is the first of his career and the first by a Redskins tight end since Chris Cooley in 2008. Reed joins Cooley (200708), Stephen Alexander (2000), Jean Fugett (1977) and Jerry Smith(1967 and 1969) as the only Redskins tight ends to earn Pro Bowlhonors since the game’s inception in 1950.In 45 career games with 22 starts since being drafted by theRedskins in the third round (No. 85 overall) of the 2013 NFL Draft,Reed has compiled 243 career receptions for 2,562 yards with 19receiving touchdowns. In Week 4 this season, Reed recorded his200th career reception in his 38th career game, becoming the fastest tight end to reach 200 career receptions in NFL history, surpassing Pro Football Hall of Famer Kellen Winslow.This season, Reed, 26, has recorded 61 receptions for 646 yardswith five touchdowns despite being limited to 11 games. Reed leadsall NFL tight ends in receptions per game in 2016 (5.5).Scherff’s selection is the first of his career and the first by aninterior Redskins lineman since guard Tré Johnson’s selection in1999. Including both Scherff and Williams, this year will mark thefirst time the Redskins have had multiple offensive linemen selected to the Pro Bowl in the same season since 1991 (tackle JimLachey and guard Mark Schlereth).Scherff, 24, has started all 30 regular season games for Washington since being selected with the fifth overall pick of the 2015NFL Draft. Scherff can join Jon Jansen and Chris Samuels as theonly offensive linemen in team history to start 16 games in each oftheir first two NFL seasons.Williams’ selection is the fifth of his career and his fifth consecutive selection since 2012. His selection this season is the 18th by aRedskins offensive tackle since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, includingselections by Chris Samuels (2001-02, 05-08), Jim Lachey (199091), Mark May (1988) and Joe Jacoby (1983-86). Between Williamsand Samuels, Redskins left tackles have been selected to nine ofthe last 12 Pro Bowls.With his fifth consecutive selection, Williams joins safety KenHouston (seven straight from 1973-79) and linebacker Chris Hanburger (five straight from 1972-76) as the only members of the Redskins since 1970 to earn Pro Bowl honors in five straight seasons.Williams, 28, is in his sixth season as an offensive captain forthe Redskins and has been among the league’s top left tacklessince being selected with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2010 NFLDraft. He has played 96 career regular season games with the Redskins with 95 starts.This season, Williams and Scherff have helped anchor an offensive line that ranks third in the NFL in sacks allowed (19) andhas helped the Redskins’ offense average 6.46 yards per play thisseason. The duo have contributed to units that have allowed quarterback Kirk Cousins to set team records in passing yardage in eachof the past two seasons.2016 WASHINGTON REDSKINS GAME INFORMATION3
