The Facts: Pryor has already swapped text messages with his new quarterback. The question is whether he will catch passes from him this season. Pryor said he did not press the Redskins on Kirk Cousins' status. But Pryor was clear on his desire for what he hopes takes place. "Obviously, I would like to play with Kirk," Pryor said. "I'd be an idiot if I didn't believe that. He's a great quarterback. Hopefully that's what happens."

Diehards Line: Besides, Pryor said, "I played with six quarterbacks last year. I don't think it can get that bad. ..." Actually, he only played with five quarterbacks last year in Cleveland -- Pryor himself was the sixth to play the position. Still, Pryor managed to catch 77 passes for 1007 yards and 4 touchdowns for the 1-15 Browns. The Redskins placed the franchise tag on Cousins, who has already signed. Barring a trade, he will play on the tag. Pryor said he texted with Cousins last Friday. "A couple receivers and myself, we'll meet with him and start working together," Pryor added. Cousins has started the past two years, throwing for a combined 9,083 yards with 54 touchdowns and 23 interceptions. So yeah, Cousins will be an upgrade for Pryor.
