Griffin, who endured a disjoined left lower leg six weeks prior in the second round of the season, worked out in dark, high-bested shoes. He demonstrated no inconvenience dropping back, tossing or making handoffs amid the early individual penetrates that were interested in news correspondents.
Gruden wants to know before the end of practice Thursday whether Griffin is prepared to return. Notwithstanding that doubtful plausibility, Mccoy will get his first begin since 2011, when he played for the Cleveland Browns.
So notwithstanding planning for the division-heading Cowboys (6-1) on Monday Night Football, would it say it is a diversion for Mccoy to need to manage the uncertainly about Griffin's status?
"My center is I'm simply going to plan to begin. There's nothing else I can do. The choice is not up to me. What I can control is the thing that I can control," said Mccoy, a previous four-year starter for the University of Texas.
Mccoy fell off the seat to supplant battling Kirk Cousins in the second a large portion of Sunday's 19-17 triumph against the Tennessee Titans. Mccoy hit 11 of 12 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown and headed the winning field objective drive toward the completion. So Cousins backpedals to the seat after five begins for the Redskins (2-5).
A week ago, Griffin came back to individual bores and partook in a couple of group penetrates late in the week. Gruden said Rg3, who was not accessible to correspondents, likewise did cooperation Wednesday with different units.
"He looked great. We'll discover from the coaches how he feels at this time, and tomorrow morning will be the huge thing. An alternate day's worth of effort tomorrow, and we'll perceive how he advances," Gruden said.
At that point the mentor likely will have a choice to make.
"Only in light of the fact that I need, A, the group to know who the quarterback is; B, the quarterback to know who the quarterback is; and C, we know for diversion arranging purposes," Gruden said.
The decision won't simply depend on Griffin's lower leg and whether the medicinal staff provides for him freedom.
"It's less viewing him run. I think he feels OK running at this time," Gruden said. "It's about how he feels tomorrow, and there are sure developments — taking off to the right, taking off to the left, curtailing. What's more we've got to perceive how he handles that.
"However the enormous thing is getting him agreeable in the pocket and tossing the ball, getting his timing down. There's a great deal of that that needs to occur likewise."
Griffin's return could in all likelihood be postponed an alternate week or more.
"I'm in no surge today to settle on an insane choice," Gruden said. "In the event that we need to sit tight for an alternate week or an additional two weeks (going into a bye week) … then so be it."
Amid his two seasons as a starter in Cleveland, Mccoy tossed 20 touchdown passes and 20 captures. Last season with the San Francisco 49ers, he tossed and finished one pass for 13 yards. He marked as a free operator with Washington in April.
Amid his school profession, Mccoy tossed 112 touchdown passes for the Longhorns and was the Heisman Trophy runner-up in 2008.
"We realize that in school he was a standout amongst the best quarterbacks to play," Gruden said. "We know he's got ability, he was in the city, and we required a third quarterback in preparing camp.
"He was an immaculate fit. I generally loved the way he played, his exactness, his strength."
Mccoy was inquired as to whether he's an alternate quarterback than he was in Cleveland.
"I would say I'm more seasoned (28), possibly a tiny bit stronger, and I think I gained from a considerable measure of my past encounters, and I've viewed a great deal of the quarterbacks play," he said.
"Furthermore assuredly by doing that, you characteristically pick up a tiny bit of trust in your comprehension what is occurring."
He comprehends the interest to see him play again in Texas will be high.
"I was going to need a couple of tickets," Mccoy said. "Presently its transformed into a clothing rundown.
"I'm amped up for retreating to Dallas. It's going to be a ton of fun."
