Practice (squad) makes perfect

Question: Wwith all the changes on the practice squad, do you have
any idea of the current members?

- Forty9ermike, Rocklin

Answer: Sure. The eight-man practice squad consists of wide receivers C.J. Brewer and Marcus Maxwell, linebackers Jared Newberry and Russell Rabe, cornerbacks Harrison Smith and Jerron Wishom, tackle Tavares Washington and running back Zak Keasey. Washington and Keasey have been on the squad virtually all season and are good candidates to play in Germany this spring.
