“Ryan Vermillion is one of the most respected and seasoned head athletic trainers in the NFL,†said Washington Redskins Owner Dan Snyder. “His 25-plus years of NFL experience and his familiarity with Coach Rivera made him a perfect fit for our organization.â€
“For many years, I've seen firsthand the positive impact Ryan has on a team,†said Washington Redskins Head Coach Ron Rivera. “His primary focus has always been the health of the players and he is going to be a tremendous addition to the Redskins.â€
