According to the Sports Junkies on 106.7 the Fan in DC, citing multiple unnamed sources, coach Mike Shanahan asked Donovan McNabb to wear a wristband after he struggled to remember plays. McNabb said the wristband would make him look stupid, and said, “It’s bad for my image.” Apparently team owner Daniel Snyder became upset with Shanahan when he learned after the season that McNabb wouldn’t wear a wristband. Now, some of the local DC area media who cover the Redskins are calling out the Sports Junkies for the validity of their sources and truth of the story. These media members have asked the team about the wristband story, and the team of course has denied knowing about the drama.
