Training camp, Day 8: Paul Richardson steps up big-time and JP has an intriguing 1-on-1 chat with Alex Smith

Coming at you from the famous tent in Richmond is another Redskins Talk episode with JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey. The first football topic covered in this one is Josh Doctson, who left at the end of practice with a shoulder injury. The extent of the injury hadn't been released at the time of the recording, but the guys still are able to describe how it happened and then look at how his potential absence could affect the wide receiver race as a whole. After, everyone gives their "one thing," which for Mitch was basically every single thing that makes him happy — a spotting of Ty Nsekhe at guard and a Kenny Landler interception, both of which happened right after each other. Tandler, meanwhile, looks at Paul Richardson's excellent day, while Pete gives his take on a rookie who has yet to show much promise. The hosts then toss to JP's 1-on-1 with Alex Smith, which is fully of juicy stuff, from how much he loves running the read-option to a really good question from JP about Kirk Cousins. If you like podcasts where Tandler hums the Rocky theme song and Smith gets really honest about a lot of topics, then this is the episode for you.
