Tuesday was a day for the defense to rise up and for Death Row to assert themselves, and that's exactly what they did. With the score 14-12 in the practice-ending Red Zone Lock Out and the offense just having scored via a Dylan Morris touchdown pass to Cade Otton, Jacobe Covington finished things off with an interception to win the day.
The freshman defensive back wasn't the only player who had a strong Tuesday workout, and the guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - went into detail on the players who stood out on both sides of the ball and also who was there, as well as who wasn't.
Head Coach Jimmy Lake didn't divulge any details on the players that got hurt Monday that didn't play on Tuesday, notably receiver Jalen McMillan who wasn't at Tuesday's workout, but Daniel Heimuli was out there with a brace on his left knee after getting banged up a day earlier.
The guys also talked about the departure of James Smith for personal and family reasons, revealed by Lake after practice. And finally they touched on the touchy subject of recruiting de-commitments after Lake was asked about the concept of players verbally committing to Washington to play, only to then back out before signing day. It happened Tuesday when Ben Roberts, a defensive lineman from Salt Lake City, announced on his personal Twitter account that he was re-opening up his recruitment after being verbally committed to Washington for roughly six weeks.
