VIDEO: Jay Gruden Has Comical Reponse to Reporter About Redskins Possibly Being on 'Hard Knocks'
By Sean Facey
With the Washington Redskins being candidate for HBO's "Hard Knocks," head coach Jay Gruden took the liberty to discuss how the production of the show could be a distraction, suggesting that perhaps they'd be better being featured next year. A reporter reminded him that they wouldn't be eligible if they made the playoffs, and Gruden's response was priceless.
The #Redskins are eligible for Hard Knocks but Jay Gruden thinks HBO would be crazy not to choose his brother.

Gruden: They can do us next year
Reporter: Not if you make the playoffs

"If we don't make the playoffs, I probably won't be here anyway."
At least he still has his sense of humor in the face of unemployment!
Gruden and the Redskins will have a tough time making the postseason with the Eagles and Cowboys both finishing ahead of them in the NFC East last year, but with plenty of new talent from the draft, they have a chance to pull it off. Get those cameras ready, HBO!
