Pryor takes blame for Week 1 loss: 'I'm real pissed at myself'

Derik Hamilton-USA TODAY Sports

Terrelle Pryor's debut as the Washington Redskins' feature receiver didn't quite go to plan.

Although he did lead Washington with six receptions for 66 yards, Pryor's stats were overshadowed by multiple dropped passes, for which he took responsibility following the 30-17 loss to the NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles.

"I'm real pissed at myself. I put this one on me," Pryor said, according to Mike Jones of The Washington Post.

After hauling in 77 passes for 1,007 yards last season with the Cleveland Browns, Pryor joined Washington on a one-year, $8 million deal. With DeSean Jackson gone to Tampa Bay, Pryor's expected to be Kirk Cousins' No. 1 target, and he certainly was on Sunday.

Pryor will have a chance to avenge his mistakes in Los Angeles next week when Washington takes on the Rams.
