UPDATED (7:05 p.m.): Redskins Pro Bowl left tackle Chris Samuels has decided to sit out the remainder of this season and most likely will retire because of a severe neck injury he suffered about two weeks ago, league sources said. Samuels, who earlier this week traveled to California to consult with a specialist, has shared his decision with some at Redskins Park. The 10-year veteran has not played since suffering the injury during the Redskins' first possession in a 20-17 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Oct. 11. A source close to Samuels said he will not make a final decision on retirement until December or January.
