The Facts:
HC Mike Shanahan said Wednesday that Westbrook has not determined where he will play, although Washington remains a possibility. It could help the Redskins that brother Byron Westbrook plays for Washington. "I'm trying to talk to his brother a little bit, trying to get in good with him," Shanahan said. "I'm not sure it's helped a whole lot, but I'll keep on trying."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Shanahan added that Westbrook provides a specific value on third downs with his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield and block. ... For what it's worth, Shanahan also was supportive of the entire running back corps when asked about Larry Johnson's progress. "We have some healthy competition," Shanahan said. "We have some guys with a lot of ability. I'm looking forward to when the pads are on, show us what they can do in game situations."
