Redskins Back Practicing After Taking Break During Bye Week

Most Redskins players last week left football behind for a few days to rest and heal.  For example, TE Chris Cooley and QB Jason Campbell went to Disney World.  On Monday, it was back to business.  

 

Injury Updates and Player News

 

• DE Jason Taylor is in full practice
• CB Shawn Springs is expected to be in full swing today or tomorrow. 
• RB Clinton Portis has not practiced and during the bye week his knee sprain flared up.  It has been classified as a second-degree MCL sprain.  Portis was on a radio show and is holding up hope to play on Sunday.  If he does, it will be very limited.
• RB Ladell Betts will be participating in practice this week, which is great news
• WR Santana Moss is “tentative” but is being worked at a good pace.
• Newly acquired CB DeAngelo Hall practiced this week and was photographed wearing #23 jersey (S Reed Doughty’s jersey number who is on injury reserve).  It was speculated that Hall would wear #32, but the team roster officially lists Hall with 23.  This will be the second time this season that Reed will profit from selling his number (not a bad way to make money on injury reserve)

 

 

I will post my preview blog of the Sunday night game against Dallas on Friday, when I will be blogging from a small town in Greene County Virginia called Stanardsville.  This is home to the biggest Redskins fans I know (and once my home as well)!

 

Hail to the Redskins!
