WitP: Mouton, Pisa, Colt, Mat, C.J., Patek, Sol

Ryan Mouton has had a good week at Titans minicamp.

Pisa Tinoisamoa is not guaranteed a starting spot with the Bears.

Although Lance Briggs publicly campaigned for Pisa Tinoisamoa to be the starter at strong-side linebacker, Nick Roach has maintained his spot with the first team during workouts and could remain there when the Bears begin minicamp Friday.

Remember Roach, who re-signed with the team as a restricted free agent, started 15 of 16 games last season, stepping in at strong-side linebacker after Tinoisamoa went down with a knee injury then moving to middle linebacker for a few games when Hunter Hillenmeyer suffered cracked ribs. And Roach was solid, tying for the team lead in tackles for a loss (10) while finishing fourth on the team in tackles.

Several teammates said Roach has been a "beast'' during workouts, so he won't lose his place with the starters without a fight. But Tinoisamoa, who continues to recover from a serious knee injury, showed flashes of his ability in two brief game-day appearances last season. He made a tremendous play to force a fumble against the Falcons, and his quickness was evident from the start.

Rich Campbell has this Colt Brennan mini-report from Redskins' OTAs.

**Now for your regular Colt Brennan report: Everyone’s favorite QB had a very nice play where he hit TE Fred Davis near the left hash on an intermediate route after checking through his progressions. It was a great read. Earlier, Brennan underthrew a flag route to Davis. For what it’s worth, Grossman was the second quarterback taking reps.
