Redskins DE Jason Taylor sprains knee

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Washington Redskins defensive end Jason Taylor left Saturday's 47-3 preseason loss to Carolina with a sprained right knee.

Coach Jim Zorn indicated an initial X-ray showed no serious damage, but said Taylor would undergo an MRI on Sunday.

The six-time Pro Bowl pick, acquired in a trade with Miami last month, was hurt when his leg bent awkwardly after he ended up in the middle of the pile following DeAngelo Williams' 5-yard run midway through the second quarter.

Taylor to Be Out 10 Days to 2 Weeks

No matter my Skins looked like a big bag of FAIL. If the rumors of Philly getting Boldin from Arz. are true, Skins could be looking up at the rest of the NFC East.

Link to Taylor here.

I'm worried about the beer supply. After this case, and the other case, there's only one case left- Barney Gumble

they looked good the earlier games

but unfortunately for them the third preseason game is the most important one, the “dress rehearsal” and they didn’t show up at all in any phase of the game, from the highlights I saw on NFL videos.

While these injuries may benefit the Boys, you never like to see them. You want both teams’ best players going up against each other to prove who’s got the goods. So in a way I hope Taylor is back by our week 4 matchup.
