Redskins WR Josh Morgan Returns To Practice

Found August 06, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Josh Morgan
TEAMS: Washington Redskins
Rich Campbell from the Washington Times reports Redskins wide receiver Josh Morgan hopes to practice Monday afternoon after missing a week with a strained left hamstring. Morgan participated in Monday morning's walkthrough. "They’re trying to see where I was at right now," Morgan said. "They’ve been doing a great job handling it, so I’m just doing whatever they tell me to do." Morgan's health is a major issue with the season approaching. Coaches foresee him as a receiver that can block, as well as make plays in the passing game, so he projects to be one of the centerpieces of the offense. In addition to his hamstring injury, he's working back from offseason surgery to repair a broken right leg and torn ankle ligaments. "It feels normal," Morgan said. "The trainers have been videotaping me running and everything, so they said everything looked normal, everything looked good. They tested my strength, and everything is equally strong."

Redskins’ Anthony Armstrong dons questionable jersey

Via Helmet2Helmet  |  August 07, 2012

2012 Washington Redskins: Best and Worst Case Scenarios

Via Football Nation  |  August 06, 2012
For the Washington Redskins, their success in the past always hinged on quarterback play and offensive line consistency. And, as an admitted D.C.
