GAME RELEASEALUMNI CENTERFormally organized in 1958, the Washington RedskinsAlumni Association was the first organization of itskind in the country. The organization spearheadedthe alumni movement among former professionalfootball players and was the model for other alumni groups that later formed in all NFL cities. Nowentering its 59th year, the Alumni Associationcontinues to celebrate those who have contributed to more than eight decades of Redskins football dating back to the team’s inception in 1932.The primary objectives of the Redskins Alumniare promoting a continuing interest in current andpast players of the Washington Redskins, as wellas promoting and fostering interest and funding forcharitable purposes. With respect to the latter, the alumniconduct fundraising events to raise money that can bedonated to charitable organizations or used in other waysto help improve the quality of life for youth in the GreaterWashington 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, in its 39thyear in 2017, and the annual Washington Redskins Welcome HomeLuncheon, which will mark its 56th year in 2017.The alumni have an office at Inova Sports Performance Centerat Redskins Park and can be reached at 703-726-7488. Since hisarrival in Washington in December of 2009, President Bruce Allenhas made it a priority to build a bridge to the franchise’s historicpast. During the Redskins’ NFC East title-winning season in 2012,that mission came to the forefront as the team celebrated its 80thanniversary.“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. The team willbe celebrating its 85th anniversary in 2017, including the establishment of the “Hall of Fans” that will include a documentary film highlighting the loyalty and passion of Redskins fans over the years.On Wednesday, Aug. 30, the Washington Redskins CharitableFoundation and Redskins Alumni Association hosted the 56th 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 theWashington Redskins Charitable Foundation and Redskins AlumniAssociation.This year, the Redskins used the event to honor their playersfor contributions both on and off the field. Quarterback Kirk Cousins earned 2016 Bobby Mitchell Offensive Player of the Year honorspresented by MGM, linebacker Ryan Kerrigan earned 2016 Sam Huff22017 WASHINGTON REDSKINS GAME INFORMATIONDefensive Player of the Year honors presented by WashingtonFirst Bank and punt returner Jamison Crowderreceived 2016 Mark Moseley Special Teams Player ofthe Year Award presented by Five Guys. Other presented awards included the Redskins Salute Awardpresented to tight end Vernon Davis by The GCOConsulting Group for his efforts with the military.Also among the Redskins Alumni Association’s premier events is the team’s annual AlumniHomecoming celebration, which the Redskinshosted in Week 10 in 2016 against the MinnesotaVikings. Not including staff and coaches, players inattendance during the weekend represented morethan 650 combined seasons of Redskins service, 110combined Super Bowl appearances, 69 combined SuperBowl titles, 34 members of the 80 Greatest Redskins, 23 Redskins Ring of Famers and nine Pro Football Hall of Famers.The Redskins used their 2016 Alumni Homecoming weekend tohonor former General Manager Bobby Beathard with induction inthe Ring of Fame. The honor was announced by President Bruce Allen during training camp at the Bon Secours Washington RedskinsTraining 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.

GAME RELEASEHEAD COACH JAY GRUDENJay Gruden enters his fourth season with the Washington Redskins in 2017 after being named the 29th head coach in franchisehistory on January 9, 2014.Previously a decorated quarterback in the college and ArenaFootball League ranks and a successful NFL assistant, Gruden hasshowcased his offensive acumen honed from his diverse footballbackground throughout his tenure with the Redskins.In 2016, Gruden guided the Redskins to an 8-7-1 record, givingthe franchise back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since1996-97. The team was led by Gruden’s record-shattering offense,which posted team records in total net yards (6,545), net passingyards (4,758) and yards per play (6.40), ranking in the Top 3 in theNFL in all three categories.Gruden’s offense — once called “easily one of the three or fourbest designed offenses in the NFL” by Andy Benoit of The MMQB —was more than just historically efficient and explosive that season.The distribution of the offensive contributions allowed eight Redskins players (DeSean Jackson, Pierre Garçon, Jamison Crowder,Rob Kelley, Chris Thompson, Jordan Reed, Vernon Davis and MattJones) to finish the season with at least 500 yards from scrimmage, tying the 2011 New Orleans Saints for the most in a singleseason in NFL history.A year earlier, Gruden led the Redskins to an NFC East Championship in 2015, posting a 9-7 record to complete the second “worstto-first” turnaround in team history. Gruden became the sixth coachin team history to lead the Redskins to a playoff berth within thefirst two years at the helm, joining Ray Flaherty, Dutch Bergman,Dudley DeGroot, George Allen and Joe Gibbs.Under Gruden’s guidance, the 2015 Redskins featured whatwas at the time the most prolific passing attack in franchise history. Quarterback Kirk Cousins, named the starter in the middle ofthe preseason, set then-single-season team records for attempts(543), completions (379), passing yards (4,166) and 300-yardpassing games (seven) while throwing 29 touchdown passes, including at least one in all 16 games. Cousins’ success coincided withthe emergence of tight end Jordan Reed, who finished the seasonwith 87 receptions for 952 yards (both team records for a tight end)with 11 receiving touchdowns.Gruden assumed control of the Redskins in 2014 and guided theteam through a campaign in which three different quarterbacks(Robert Griffin III, Kirk Cousins and Colt McCoy) recorded victoriesas starters. He installed an offensive system that produced two ProBowlers in his first season (tackle Trent Williams and running backAlfred Morris).Excluding interim coaches, Gruden, 46 at the time of his hiring,became the team’s youngest head coaching hire since hiring eventual Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Gibbs at 40 years of age in 1981.He became the first Redskins head coach hired directly from an offensive coordinator role on another team since Norv Turner in 1994.Before joining the Redskins, Gruden spent his previous threeseasons as offensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals. In histenure in Cincinnati, the Bengals averaged 10 wins a season, makingthree consecutive playoff appearances and earning an AFC Northchampionship in 2013. Members of the Bengals’ offense accountedfor seven Pro Bowl selections in his three seasons in Cincinnati.Gruden was tasked with the development of quarterback AndyDalton, a 2011 second-round pick. In three seasons together, Grudenhelped Dalton to a 30-18 regular season record as a starter (.625),as Dalton’s 30 wins in that time frame ranked tied for fifth-mostamong NFL quarterbacks. Dalton’s 80 passing touchdowns rankedthird-most in NFL history for a quarterback in his first three seasons, trailing only Dan Marino (98) and Peyton Manning (85).42017 WASHINGTON REDSKINS GAME INFORMATIONPrior to joining the Bengals, Gruden served two years with theFlorida Tuskers of the United Football League from 2009-10. In2009, Gruden served as offensive coordinator as the Tuskers compiled a 6-0 regular season record and earned a UFL championship game berth. In 2010, he assumed the roles of head coach andgeneral manager and led the Tuskers to their second consecutivechampionship game appearance.Gruden coached for seven seasons (2002-08) with the TampaBay Buccaneers, earning a Super Bowl championship ring as an offensive assistant in 2002. There he worked under his brother, Jon(then the Bucs’ head coach), and current Redskins President BruceAllen (the Bucs’ general manager from 2004-08). Gruden helpedguide the Buccaneers to the team’s first championship, a 48-21 victory in Super Bowl XXXVII.Gruden also ranks among the most outstanding players andcoaches in the history of the Arena Football League, having wonsix combined league championships – four as a quarterback andtwo as a head coach. Gruden played quarterback (2002-03) andserved as head coach (2004-08) of the AFL’s Orlando Predatorswhile simultaneously working as an offensive assistant with theBuccaneers. In all, Gruden served as head coach of the Predatorsfor nine seasons (1998-2001 and 2004-08), leading the Predatorsto four championship game appearances and two league titles asa coach. During a two-year hiatus from coaching the Predators in2002-03, he returned to the playing field as Orlando’s quarterback,leading the Predators to playoff appearances in both seasons.In his eight seasons as a player in the AFL, Gruden completed1,673-of-2,775 passes (60.3 percent) for 21,578 yards with 398touchdowns and 99 interceptions. In addition to his time with Orlando, he spent six seasons (1991-96) at quarterback for the TampaBay Storm, winning four AFL titles and being named MVP of ArenaBowl VII in 1993. He was also named the 1992 AFL Most ValuablePlayer and was honored with induction into the AFL Hall of Fame in1999.Gruden played quarterback for four seasons for former Redskins draft pick Howard Schnellenberger at the University of Louisville (1985-88) and was a two-time team MVP.Gruden was born March 4, 1967, in Tiffin, Ohio.
