Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III took part in a full practice today, a key sign that he's recovering nicely from his the sprain in the LCL of his right knee. Head Coach Mike Shanahan said Griffin looked "good" today and took "most of the reps" he would normally take.
C Will Montgomery, suffering from a second-degree MCL sprain, practiced fully today and Shanahan believes he will start on Sunday.
RT Tyler Polumbus did a walk-through today, but did not practice as he recovers from his concussion. The team will follow concussion protocols that Polumbus must satisfy before he can practice or play again.
DE Stephen Bowen is in pain with an upper biceps tear he suffered early in the Browns game, but he can play with it and Shanahan indicated he will probably play on Sunday. A tear in the lower biceps would have put Bowen on the shelf.
