Adam Schefter of ESPN just announced on the air that both WR Pierre Garcon and SS Brandon Meriweather are both expected to play today when the Redskins host the Philadelphia Eagles. Schefter said it isn't clear how much Garcon will actually play and I expect very little from him due to chronic foot pain that could very easily cut his once-promising career very short. Hopefully, I'm wrong about that.
