Redskins coaches release statement supporting owners

The Redskins’ coaching staff issued a statement Thursday, supporting ownership during the lockout. The NFL Coaches Association had filed a brief with the U.S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, stating their support of the players as they try to end the lockout.

The Redskins coaches say they weren’t consulted before coaches association filed its brief because their former representative, Kirk Olivadotti, is no longer on their staff.

Every member of the Redskins’ staff signed the letter, save for coach Mike Shanahan who also has the title of executive vice president and therefore is in management.
