Late last season, Redskins running backs coach Randy Jordan was discussing the rookie running back, who tore his ACL in the preseason opener.

Guice had excited the Redskins, showing vision and quick cuts they hoped — believed — would lead to big plays.

“One thing that really got me about him was how well he catches the ball,” Jordan said. “You have to remind yourself. I had to go back and look at tape on him. He’s going to be f—ing really good.”
