The Washington Redskins have three Virginia Tech Hokies alum on their roster. All three were drafted this year — cornerbacks Adonis Alexander (sixth-round pick in supplemental draft) and Greg Stroman (seventh-round pick in NFL draft) and defensive tackle Tim Settle (fifth-round draft pick). They also have two alums of Florida State.
One of those alums is running back Chris Thompson and following Virginia Tech’s beat down of the Seminoles on Monday night, Thompson understands what he is in store for when the Redskins rejoin for practice on Wednesday. He joked on Twitter that he is going to have a stressful day at work with the “65 VT players.”

It seems like there are that many Hokies on the team, but Virginia Tech doesn’t have the most representation on the Redskins roster. That belongs to the Alabama, who has five players. Still, after the way Florida State got hammered it may seem like 65 voices roasting Thompson on Wednesday.
