Crawford Shines On Defense, Special Teams

Richard Crawford admitted he was nervous when he first took the field Thursday night in the Redskins' 2012 preseason opener against the host Buffalo Bills.

But the rookie defensive back -- the Redskins' seventh-round selection in April's NFL Draft -- quickly ridded himself of any jitters in his first play from scrimmage, a cornerback blitz that sent Crawford hurdling toward the Buffalo quarterback.

"First play of the game, I had a blitz, so I was kind of nervous with that big [offensive] tackle," Crawford, an SMU product, told reporters after the game. "It's just good to get the nerves out."
