Redskins Add TE Rob Myers, DE Doug Worthington To Active Roster

Found December 20, 2011 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Rob Myers,  Doug Worthington
TEAMS: Washington Redskins,  Philadelphia Eagles,  Buffalo Bills,  Indianapolis Colts,  Pittsburgh Steelers,  New York Jets,  New England Patriots,  Tampa Bay Buccaneers,  Utah State Aggies,  Ohio State Buckeyes
The Washington Redskins have promoted tight end Rob Myers and defensive lineman Doug Worthington from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, Chuck Carroll of Football News Now reports. Originally signed by the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Utah State in 2009, Myers has bounced around the league with stints with the Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, New England Patriots, Buffalo Bills and Indianapolis Colts before joining the Redskins' practice squad last month. Myers has yet to appear in an NFL game. Worthington was a 2010 seventh-round pick out of Ohio State by the Pittsburgh Steelers who split his rookie season on practice squads in Pittsburgh and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Waived by the Buccaneers in August, Worthington was claimed by the Redskins and has been on their practice squad since the start of the season.

Mike Shanahan: Rex Grossman not entirely to blame for flea-flicker pick

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 19, 2011
Washington Redskins quarterback Rex Grossman threw an interception on a failed flea-flicker on the first play of Sunday’s game against the Giants. But on Monday – 24 hours removed from Washington’s 23-10 victory – coach Mike Shanahan said all the blame shouldn’t fall on Grossman. Grossman took the snap at his own 18-yard line and handed it off to running back Roy Helu,...

Quick hits: Roy Helu played hurt against the Giants

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 19, 2011
Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan said rookie running back Roy Helu was injured (toe and leg) in the Giants game, but coaches didn’t realize how badly until they reviewed game tape and saw Helu’s diminished effectiveness. Shanahan said cornerback Josh Wilson suffered a blow to the head along the sideline late in the game and was “a little woozy, a little dizzy.” Wilson...

Wrestling Fever Comes To Redskins Park

Via Redskins Blog  |  December 21, 2011
Click to view slideshow. Earlier this week, a unique fan creation showed up at Redskins Park in the form of a Redskins-themed championship belt.  And why not? The belt comes to Ashburn from James Makle, a firefighter from Prince George’s County, who made the belt for himself a few years ago.  As he stated in his accompanying letter, he was sending the letter to the team so that...

Brian Orakpo fighting double-teams

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 21, 2011
There are still two games remaining, but linebacker Brian Orakpo may see his sack numbers dip for the second year in a row. Orakpo had 11 as a rookie in 2009, 8.5 last year and has 7 through 14 games this season. Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett said despite that stat, Orakpo is still improving as a football player. Read full article >>

Neild Brings Hess Trucking Joy To Fans

Via Redskins Blog  |  December 20, 2011
By now, many of you are familiar with Redskins nose tackle Chris Neild, and the nickname “Truck” that he acquired in the fifth grade. Perhaps not surprisingly, trucks were a favorite toy of Neild’s growing up.  Each Christmas he would thunder downstairs to find a new Hess truck under the tree.  His sister even called him “Hess” from time to time, a nickname that was...

Week 16 Power Rankings Roundup

Via Redskins Blog  |  December 21, 2011
AP Image It’s hard to believe that only a few short weeks ago, the Redskins media was considering the possibility of a 3-13 finish.  It’s even crazier to consider that this team was once sitting at 3-1. With each win and loss, the media has micro-analyzed the direction of this team, and we’re left with power rankings that reflect whatever the current mood may be.  In the...

Redskins-Vikings ticket market looks soft

Via D.C. Sports Bog  |  December 19, 2011

Week 15 Fantasy Football Recap: Redskins vs. Giants

Via Football Nation  |  December 19, 2011
Washington Redskins – 23, New York Giants – 10 Not quite the shocker of the Packers-Chiefs game, but this one was a bit of a surprise in its own right.  Rex Grossman (185 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs) and the Redskins went into the New Meadowlands and crushed the Giants’ postseason hopes.  Of course,Eli Manning’s (257 yards, 0 TDs, 3 INTs) implosion had a lot to do with that, as...

Washington Redskins Seize Lead and Never Let Go in 23-10 Victory Over Giants

Via isportsweb.com  |  December 20, 2011
The New York Giants may control their own destiny as far as the playoffs go, but the Redskins certainly controlled this game.  Despite early game mistakes, they quickly seized the lead and never let go, dominating their division opponents for the second time this season. (Antrel Rolle may want to re-think his math a little bit.) The Good: In the absence of Fred Davis, many players...
