ASHBURN, Va. -- Todd Collins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=3116) is the No. 2 quarterback for the Washington Redskins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was), with Mark Brunell (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=2485) demoted to No. 3.
The news was hardly a surprise, given that Collins has been working with the second-string unit during practice, but coach Joe Gibbs waited until Wednesday to inform his players.
"I was disappointed, but it's coach's decision," said Brunell, a three-time Pro Bowl quarterback who hasn't played third-string since he was with Green Bay in the early 1990s. "It could've gone either way simply because you have two guys that are certainly qualified to be a backup. Weird, maybe a little bit, but that's OK."
Collins, meanwhile, has thrown only 27 passes in the NFL in the last nine years. However, the 35-year-old veteran knows the offense well, having played for assistant coach Al Saunders in Kansas City.
