Redskins Vs. Dolphins: Rex Grossman To Keep Starting QB Job Against Cowboys

Rex Grossman will start at quarterback for the Washington Redskins next Sunday when they host the Dallas Cowboys, coach Mike Shanahan said in his Monday news conference. Shanahan tabbed Grossman to start in Sunday's 20-9 loss to the Miami Dolphins, ending a three-game experiment with John Beck under center. Against Miami, Grossman completed 21-of-32 passes for just 215 yards, no touchdowns, and two interceptions, but nonetheless did enough to keep the starting job for another week. "I was impressed with the way he played," Shanahan said of Grossman.

Washington has lost each of its last five games, a streak which began against the Philadelphia Eagles on Oct. 16. Grossman started that game and completed 9-of-22 passes for 143 yards, with four interceptions, before Shanahan replaced him with Beck, who held the Redskins' quarterback job for four weeks before ceding it to Grossman Sunday. In his three starts, Beck completed 61.5 percent of his passes, with two touchdowns and four interceptions, compiling a passer rating of 71.2.

At 3-6, the Redskins and Eagles are tied for last place in the NFC East. The Cowboys (5-4) trail the New York Giants (6-3) by one game in the division. Sunday's Redskins/Cowboys matchup is scheduled for 1 PM Eastern.

Leonard Hankerson Injury Update: Washington Redskins' WR Has Torn Labrum, Heads To Injured Reserve

Leonard Hankerson's season is over, the Washington Redskins announced Monday, due to a torn labrum in his right hip. The rookie wide receiver suffered the injury during his breakout performance against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday afternoon. Hankerson, making his second start of the season for the injured Santana Moss, caught eight passes for 106 yards. That's no mean feat, as no other Redskins receiver had more than three receptions or 37 yards in that 20-9 loss.

Hankerson's season ends with the former Miami Hurricane recording 13 receptions for 163 yards and no scores. The Redskins made him the No. 79 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. With Moss and Hankerson out, Washington's top receiving options are tight end Fred Davis and wideout Jabar Gaffney. Niles Paul is another injured Washington wide receiver.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins: No Amount Of Tinkering Can Help This Offense

Leonard Hankerson Week 10 Fantasy Update: Washington Redskins' WR Breaks Out, But Suffers Injury

Washington Redskins' wide receiver Leonard Hankerson may work his way onto a few fantasy football rosters after having a solid performance against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. The Redskins' rookie, starting due to the injury to Santana Moss, caught eight passes for 106 yards. The only problem is that he also suffered a hip injury and had to leave the game.

If Hankerson remains healthy, he may be worth a look if Rex Grossman continues to start at quarterback. Grossman may throw lots of interceptions, but at least he'll try to get the ball to his wide receiver. Of all those wideouts, Hankerson was targeted the most. That makes him at least serviceable as a backup if he can remain healthy.

Leonard Hankerson Injury Update: X-Rays Negative On Right Hip, Redskins' WR Believes It's Not Serious

We still don't have a ton of answers on the status of Washington Redskins wide receiver Leonard Hankerson, who suffered a right hip injury in the team's 20-9 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. We do know that an MRI was taken and turned up negative, but that's about it. Via Grant Paulsen of 106.7 The Fan.

X-rays taken after the game on Leonard Hankerson's injured hip were negative. But the rookie-WR left the #Redskins locker room on crutches.

We also know that Hankerson himself doesn't think the injury is serious, because that's what he told Rich Campbell of the Washington Times. It's worth noting, though, that Tim Hightower delivered similar quotes after he suffered what ended up being a season-ending knee injury against the Carolina Panthers.

Hankerson suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter after picking up a first down. He caught eight passes for 106 yards in the game.

ANIMATED: Miami Dolphins Fans Fight Over Reggie Bush Touchdown Vs. Redskins

Roy Helu Week 10 Fantasy Update: Washington Redskins' RB Stifled By Not Starting

Roy Helu fantasy owners are probably mad at Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan right now. The promising fourth-round rookie did not start for the Redskins in their 20-9 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, even though he was impressive in his first start against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 9. Naturally, his fantasy numbers suffered.

Helu ended up with 41 yards rushing and 13 yards receiving in the Redskins' loss. Much of that can be explained by Shanahan electing to start Ryan Torain, who was not impressive when he played. Had the Redskins started Helu, he likely would have put up solid fantasy numbers. Instead, Shanahan's running back roulette claimed fantasy owners again.

Fred Davis Week 10 Fantasy Update: Washington Redskins' Tight End Has Disappointing Day

The switch to Rex Grossman at quarterback helped the Washington Redskins' passing game as a whole, but it didn't help Fred Davis much in the Redskins' 20-9 loss to the Miami Dolphins. After a couple solid performances, Davis struggled on Sunday, catching just three passes for 28 yards.

It's the second bad week in a row for Davis, who has been a pretty solid fantasy option for most of the season. Last week, he caught just four passes for 42 yards. This week, he was even worse. This comes after a three-game stretch where he had at least 80 yards receiving in three straight games, emerging as a top fantasy tight end. We might need to rethink that after his recent struggles.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Final Score: Redskins Lose Fifth Game In A Row, Falling 20-9 To The Dolphins

The Washington Redskins extended their losing streak to five, as they fell to the Dolphins, 20-9. The loss puts the Redskins' record at 3-6 on the season.

The first half saw the Redskins and Dolphins mired in a game of offensive ineptitude, with both teams heading into the locker room with the Dolphins up 10-6. Despite numerous chances to score a touchdown, the Redskins offense, now led by Rex Grossman, could not capitalize.

The offense was given it's best chance of the first half when Kevin Barnes intercepted a Matt Moore pass and returned it inside the ten yard line of the Dolphins, setting up first and goal. But as usual, the Redskins offense found a way to squander the opportunity. A holding penalty on an apparent Ryan Torain touchdown run put the out of scoring range.

In the second half, the Redskins were given yet another opportunity when Ryan Kerrigan stripped Moore of the ball, which was recovered by the Redskins. From there, the offense was set up at the Miami 25-yard line. Despite getting inside the ten, they were not able to capitalize yet again. They settled for another Gano field goal, cutting the deficit for 10-9.

After the Dolphins made it 13-9, the critical mistake of the game came on the Redskins first possession of the fourth quarter. After a key completion to rookie wideout Leonard Hankerson to set up first-and-goal, Grossman threw a critical interception to linebacker Karlos Dansby. The pick led to the game's decisive score, an 18-yard run by Reggie Bush which put the game out of reach.

The hapless offense couldn't respond, and the Redskins sealed their first five game losing streak since 2001, when the team started off 0-5.

Leonard Hankerson Injury: Washington Redskins' WR Leaves Game After Injuring Hip

Already down two scores to the Miami Dolphins, the Washington Redskins received even more bad news. Rookie wide receiver Leonard Hankerson, who has 106 receiving yards in a breakout performance, was forced to leave the game after coming down awkwardly on his leg. The Redskins later announced that he suffered a right rip strain.

Hankerson had just caught a key third-down conversion when his leg buckled strangely on his fall. He slammed his hand on the field when he went down and was on the ground for a while, but he was able to walk off the field under his own power. He did struggle to put weight on his leg, so it remains to be seen if the injury is serious.

Hankerson joins Santana Moss and Niles Paul as Redskins receiver who have gotten hurt this season.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Score Update: Reggie Bush Touchdown Puts Miami Up, 20-9

As it turned out, the Rex Grossman interception in the red zone proved to be costly for the Washington Redskins. The Miami Dolphins easily moved the ball up the field and eventually cashed in when Reggie Bush ran outside for an 18-yard touchdown. Miami now leads, 20-9, with 6:07 to go in the fourth quarter.

The drive actually featured a lot of passing, with Brandon Marshall catching two first-down balls and tight end Anthony Fasano making a one-handed catch for 21 yards to get into Redskins territory. On the touchdown, Bush took a sweep, bounced it to the right side and broke several tackles to get into the end zone. It's his second touchdown of the game and it may end up deciding the outcome.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Update: Rex Grossman Interception Stops Potential Washington Scoring Drive

Just when it looked like the Washington Redskins were going to score, Rex Grossman's penchant for interceptions struck again. Grossman threw a brutal interception to Karlos Dansby inside the Dolphins' 10-yard line, killing a potential scoring drive and allowing the Miami Dolphins to maintain a 13-9 lead early in the fourth quarter.

Two big plays allowed the Redskins to keep the drive alive. First, Roy Helu rushed for a tough three yards on third and three to pick up a first down. Then, on third and nine, Grossman found Leonard Hankerson for a big gain down inside the 10-yard line. Unfortunately for Redskins fans, Grossman locked on Jabar Gaffney on the interception, making it easy for Karlos Dansby to intercept the pass

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Score Update: Miami Holds 13-9 Lead Heading Into Fourth Quarter

After a lackluster third quarter, the Redskins trail the Dolphins 13-9. Both teams exchanged field goals to account for the current margin.

The half started off on the right foot when Ryan Kerrigan recorded a sack fumble on Matt Moore which set up the offense inside the 25 yard line of Miami. The offense wasn't able to capitlize, settling for a field goal which cut the deficit to 10-9.

The Dolphins responded with a field goal drive of their own, as a squandered touchdown opportunity led to the score that made it 13-9.

As the quarter ended, the Redskins were driving into Miami territory, looking to take their first lead in over a month.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Score Update: Miami Leads, 10-6, At Halftime After Field Goals

The second quarter between the Miami Dolphins and the Washington Redskins didn't feature any touchdowns. Both teams got field goals instead, so the Dolphins now lead 10-6 at halftime.

The field goal party began early in the second quarter. Miami moved the ball inside the 10-yard line, but the Redskins' defense held firm on third and goal, forcing a short field goal by Dan Carpenter. After a Rex Grossman interception, Miami got the ball back again, but this time, Carpenter's 49-yard field goal sailed wide. The Redskins eventually got the ball back and drove far enough to get a 47-yard field goal for Graham Gano to cut the lead to 10-6. The Dolphins elected not to attempt to score again at the end of the half, even though they had two timeouts.

Grossman has played well for the Redskins, save for the interception by Vontae Davis. He has completed nine of 12 passes for 103 yards and has at least allowed the Redskins' offense to move the ball. Now, the Redskins need to get some touchdowns to add to it.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Score Update: Miami Takes 7-3 Over Washington After One Quarter

With the Redskins offense hoping to gain a spark with Rex Grossman back  in at quarterback, unfortunately the results have been all too familiar. The Dolphins are leading the Redskins 7-3 going into the second quarter. 

The game started with a three and out for the Redskins offense, which gave the ball to the Dolphins inside Washington territory. From there, Miami cashed in with an opening possession touchdown thanks to the running of Reggie Bush, whose one-yard dash gave the Dolphins and early 7-0 lead. 

The Redskins second possession saw them drive into field goal range before seeing Graham Gano miss a 50 yard attempt wide left, squandering yet another scoring chance.

But perhaps the biggest indictment of the offense came when the defense came up big, with Kevin Barnes intercepting a Matt Moore pass and bringing the ball back inside the ten yard line of the Dolphins. The Redskins offense responded with two runs and a crucial penalty, which destroyed any chance of a touchdown. Washington had to settle for a Gano field goal that cut the deficit to 7-3.

The story is simple for the Redskins: If their offense continues to struggle, they will have no chance.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins Score Update: Reggie Bush Touchdown Gives Dolphins 7-0 Lead

The Miami Dolphins have struck first in their Week 10 game against the Washington Redskins. The Dolphins' first drive was an easy one that ended with running back Reggie Bush walking into the end zone for a one-yard touchdown. Miami now leads, 7-0.

The Redskins looked like they would be able to stop the Dolphins early in the drive, but Matt Moore kept it alive with a 26-yard pass to Brandon Marshall. Miami converted another first down to set up first and goal when Bush caught a pass in the flat, then got even closer when Perry Riley was called for a horse collar tackle on Daniel Thomas. Two plays later, Bush bounced it outside and literally trotted into the end zone with zero Redskins around him.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins: Ryan Torain Starting Over Roy Helu At RB, According To Report

Fantasy football players, Mike Shanahan has thrown you another curveball. The Washington Redskins' coach has elected to start Ryan Torain at running back over Roy Helu for the team's game against the Miami Dolphins, according to a report by Mike Jones of the Washington Post.

The move is surprising because Helu played very well in his first start against the 49ers. The fourth-round rookie had 146 total yards from scrimmage, including 14 catches for 105 yards. Despite that, Shanahan has elected to go back to Torain, who hasn't done much this season outside of a breakout performance against the St. Louis Rams in Week 4.

Torain and Helu are the only two Redskins running backs active. It remains to be seen how they split the carries.

Rex Grossman Fantasy Projections: Washington Redskins' QB Could Surprise Vs. Dolphins

When we wrote our fantasy football projection for John Beck, we said he wasn't worth playing under any circumstances. Now that Beck has been replaced by Rex Grossman for the Washington Redskins' game against the Miami Dolphins, should you also refuse to play Grossman under any circumstances? Possibly, but don't be surprised if Grossman surprises.

Keep in mind that the Miami Dolphins are not a good pass defense team. They rank just 27th in the league in yards allowed and have given up several big games, including Tom Brady's Week 2 explosion. With Beck, many of that doesn't matter because he has not shown the ability to throw the ball down the field. With Grossman, though, it's different. Grossman may throw the ball to the other team sometimes, but at least he takes chances. That might be enough for him to put up decent numbers in his return to the field.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins: Rex Grossman To Start At QB Over John Beck, Report Says

For the second time in 2011, the Washington Redskins have made a quarterback change. Rex Grossman, who was benched after throwing four interceptions in a Week 6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, will replace John Beck as the Redskins' starting quarterback for their game against the Miami Dolphins, according to a report by NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.

The noise of this possibly happening emerged on Saturday with a report that Beck and Grossman were splitting the first-team reps in practice. Earlier in the week, coach Mike Shanahan had pledged his support for Beck. Now, he has evidently changed his mind.

The move comes after Beck only led the Redskins on one drive that ended in a touchdown in the last two games. Grossman certainly made his fair share of mistakes, but the Redskins were still 3-2 when he was replaced. Perhaps Shanahan decided that Beck had not proven enough with his opportunity.

Roy Helu Fantasy Projection: Washington Redskins' RB A Borderline Play Vs. Dolphins

Washington Redskins running back Roy Helu put up excellent fantasy numbers in his first career start against the San Francisco 49ers last week, especially if you play in a PPR league. Now, can he keep up his production when the Redskins face the Miami Dolphins? It certainly will be an interesting call for fantasy owners.

The fantasy projection site numberfire.com suggests Helu will score 9.02 points against the Dolphins on Sunday, with most of those points coming on the ground. Helu certainly had a big game vs. the 49ers, but keep in mind that many of those yards came on checkdown passes from John Beck. With Rex Grossman now starting at quarterback, those may go away. Miami is also better than you think against the run, giving up an average of 115.6 yards, which is 14th in the league.

Throw in Mike Shanahan's running back roulette routine, and if it were me, I'd probably look elsewhere for a bye-week fill-in.

Fred Davis Fantasy Projection: Healthy Washington Tight End Could Exploit Weak Miami Pass Defense

Fred Davis struggled a bit in his return from an ankle injury last week for the Redskins, catching just four balls for 42 yards in a 19-11 Washington loss, but Davis has practiced fully leading up to the Week 10 matchup with the Miami Dolphins, and will be a key component in the Redskins offense Sunday afternoon.

The fantasy football projection site numberFire expects Davis to top last week's performance, but only slightly so. He is ranked as the seventh best play at tight end. His projected stats: 4.60 rec for 48.39 yds, 0.44 TDs, 7.44 points

The Dolphins pass defense is one of the weaker units in the NFL, surrendering 265.3 yards per game through the air, ranking them 27th in the league.

For the season, Davis leads all Redskins receivers with 40 receptions, for 559 yards and two touchdowns.

John Beck Fantasy Projection: Best To Stay Away From Washington Redskins' QB

If you're looking for a bye-week quarterback to step into your fantasy football lineup, you probably should stay away from Washington Redskins' quarterback John Beck. That's really an every-week thing, so even though the Miami Dolphins offer a fairly tame match-up, it's not enough to make him a viable fantasy option.

Some projections are relatively kind to him. Numberfire.com suggests that Beck will put up 10.16 points in this game, which would make him a serviceable bye-week fill-in, if not spectacular. However, that seems pretty kind for someone who has thrown a grand total of one touchdown in his last two games and may not even start on Sunday.

Bottom line: just look elsewhere, folks.

Redskins Vs. Dolphins: Rex Grossman Taking Snaps With First Team, According To Report

As the 3-5 Washington Redskins prepare to face the 1-7, yet favored, Miami Dolphins, is another ride on the quarterback carousel about to occur? Could backup-turned-starter John Beck be headed back to the sidelines, in favor of former starter Rex Grossman. If practice snaps are any indication, it might appear that way. Via Mike Jones of the Washington Post:

This week, Redskins Coach Mike Shanahan and offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan had Beck split first-team snaps with second-string quarterback Rex Grossman, who opened the season as the starter but was benched four games ago, according to three people with knowledge of the situation.

Grossman was benched after throwing four interceptions against the Philadelphia Eagles, but Beck's performance as his replacement has not impressed anyone. The Redskins have scored just 11 points in their last two contests, and have lost four straight games. Is Mike Shanahan thinking a switch back to Grossman can prevent the first five game losing streak of his head coaching career?

Washington Redskins Injury Report, Week 10: Oshiomogho Atogwe, Jammal Brown Questionable For Game Against Miami Dolphins

The Washington Redskins received some good news on the injury front Friday afternoon, as safety Oshiomogho Atogwe (toe/knee) and offensive tackle Jammal Brown (groin) practiced for the first time this week. Though their participation is limited, and though the team lists them as questionable, the fact that they managed to practice is "a positive sign," coach Mike Shanahan said. Running back Tashard Choice (hamstring), who has yet to play since the Redskins claimed him off waivers from the Dallas Cowboys, is also listed as questionable after going through a limited practice. "He practiced today and didn't have any setbacks today," said Shanahan.

Safety LaRon Landry (Achilles') practiced in full Friday after going through a limited practice on Thursday, showing enough progress for the team to list him as probable against Miami. DeAngelo Hall did not practice Friday as his wife gave birth to twins, but he is listed as probable.

Linebacker Keyaron Fox (infection) and wide receivers Santana Moss (broken hand) and Niles Paul (turf toe) are out. Tight end Fred Davis (ankle), safety Reed Doughty (chest), defensive end Kedric Golston (elbow), linebacker Markus White (illness), and offensive tackle Trent Williams (ankle) each practiced in full and are listed as probable.

Miami Dolphins Injury Report, Week 10: Nolan Carroll Questionable, Vontae Davis And Clyde Gates Probable

The Miami Dolphins appear to be near full health for their game against the Washington Redskins on Sunday, Nov. 13. They list just three players--cornerbacks Nolan Carroll and Vontae Davis, plus kick returner Clyde Gates--on their injury report, and of the three, only Carroll (hamstring) is questionable. Carroll went through Friday's practice, but in a limited capacity. Davis (hamstring) and Gates (groin) participated fully in Friday's practice and are probable for Sunday against Washington.

Carroll ranks No. 6 on the Dolphins with 22 tackles (18 solo). The former Maryland Terrapin has yet to tally an interception or a pass defensed this season.

Davis, in his third season out of Illinois, has 16 tackles (1 solo, 1 for loss) on the year. He hasn't played since Oct. 23 against the Denver Broncos.

Gates leads Miami with 19 kickoff returns for 419 yards, a 22.1-yard average. He's also returned three punts for 32 yards, though Davone Bess serves as the Dolphins' primary punt returner. Nominally a wide receiver, Gates has just one reception for eight yards in his rookie season out of Abilene Christian. Miami quarterbacks have targeted him just 11 times through seven games.

SB Nation D.C. Talks Redskins Vs. Dolphins On CSN Washington's 'Lunchbox Live'

SB Nation D.C.'s Daniel Shiferaw joins CSN Washington's "Lunchbox Live" program to preview the Redskins' game against the Dolphins and discuss Mike Shanahan's definition of "rebuilding."

Week 10 NFL Lines And Odds: Redskins Vs. Dolphins

The Washington Redskins haven't been playing very good football as of late, but they have to be the favorites over the 1-7 Miami Dolphins, right? RIGHT? I know the Dolphins got their first win of the week against the Chiefs on Sunday in impressive fashion, so let's see if they gained any respect by the oddsmakers.Here is what our partners at OddsShark have to say about the matchup.

Miami erased the zero in its win column last week and appears in good shape to add its second in Week 10, as they are favored at home against the tumbling Washington Redskins in NFL odds action.However, Dolphin bettors have been burned repeatedly when backing their team at home and may be cautious of the Week 10 opening point spread here. The Dolphins are 0-7 SU and ATS in their past seven home games.Miami has also struggled as a favorite, going 0-5 ATS in their past 5 tries as chalk. Washington meanwhile is winless in four trips to Miami since 1981, although those games from 25 years hardly impact the Week 10 NFL odds menu.

And here are the complete odds from the SB Nation odds page.

Nope, guess not. Looks like the oddsmakers give the Dolphins the edge at home.

Dolphins Injury Report, Week 10: Miami Is Healthy And Hyped Heading Into Sunday's Matchup With Washington Redskins

Give credit to Tony Sporano for keeping the ship afloat during the Miami Dolphins' 0-7 start to the 2011 NFL season. When Las Vegas sets your over/under win total at 7.5 at the outset of the year and you lose your first seven games, obviously there's the potential for disaster in the locker room. But as was noted by Sun-Sentinentel reporter Omar Kelly, the Dolphins have remained loose and confident throughout their early-season struggles.  And after finally winning their first game of the year in Week 9, a 31-7 shellacking of the Kansas City Chiefs, the Dolphins feel like they're ready to compete consistently for the remainder of the season.

They'll try to win their second consecutive game this Sunday when the reeling Washington Redskins come to town. Banged up and searching for answers, the Redskins come to town riding a four-game losing streak. The Dolphins, meanwhile, are as healthy as they have been in weeks.

Cornerback Nolan Carroll, who has been battling an on-again, off-again hamstring injury, appears to be the only player whose participation was limited.

That means Daniel Thomas and Vontae Davis’ hamstring injuries are healing, or appears to be.

Sparano said Davis, who was suspended last week, will start against the Redskins.

Thomas played against the Chiefs last week, but his participation was limited.

It's exceedingly rare to see a team's injury report be so thin at this stage in the year, but Miami's is just that. Everybody was in practice again on Thursday, and as noted above, CB Nolan Carroll was the only one to even be limited. All told, the Dolphins appear ready to salvage what's left of their season and play themselves out of the Andrew Luck Sweepstakes with a successful second half of the season.

Kickoff between Miami and Washington is 1 pm local time from Sun Life Stadium in South Florida.

Washington Redskins Injury Report, Week 10: LaRon Landry Returns To Practice, Oshiomogho Atowge Sits Out Again Thursday

The Washington Redskins' losing streak was extended to four games last Sunday with their 19-11 home loss to the surging San Francisco 49ers. In attempt to shake things up for the second half of the season, Mike Shanahan made a number of roster moves earlier this week, signing players on both sides of the ball. The Skins will try to get back in the win column for the first time in over a month when they travel to Miami to face a Dolphins squad that finally recorded its first win of the year last Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Redskins may be without two of their key defensive players in the secondary -- safetys LaRon Landry and Oshiomogho Atowge. Landry (Achilles) did return to practice on Thursday, but was limited. Atowge, meanwhile, sat out practice for the second day this week while nursing both a toe and a knee injury that kept him out . Both are listed as questionable for the Week 10 matchup with Miami.

Asked who who would play in place of the duo if their injuries kept them from playing this Sunday, Mike Shanahan said:

"We would go with DeJon [Gomes]. He would be our starter if LaRon didn't go. Kareem [Moore] would be the backup, probably."

Here's the rest of the 'Skins Thursday injury report:

Jammal Brown Injury Likely To Sideline Washington Redskins' RT Vs. Miami Dolphins

Though the Washington Redskins have yet to rule out offensive tackle Jammal Brown for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, coach Mike Shanahan said it's unlikely the six-year veteran will play, according to Grant Paulsen. Brown missed the second half of last Sunday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers with a groin injury.

The Redskins' official Twitter account says Sean Locklear will start in Brown's place should the injury keep Brown out of action once again. Offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said Locklear would be responsible for blocking Dolphins linebacker Cameron Wake, which is "bad news," Paulsen notes. Wake, who earned a Pro Bowl berth last year after tallying 14 sacks, ranks No. 13 in the NFL this year with 5.5.

Brown has two Pro Bowl appearances and one First-Team All-Pro honor dating from his four years with the New Orleans Saints. Based on those honors, it's fair to say Washington would stand a better chance of stopping Wake if Brown were healthy enough to play.

Miami Dolphins Injury Report, Week 10: Vontae Davis, Clyde Gates Practice In Full

The Miami Dolphins appear to be in good health headed into Sunday's matchup against the Washington Redskins. Miami lists only three players on its injury report. Cornerback Vontae Davis (hamstring) and kick returner Clyde Gates (groin) practiced in full Wednesday, while defensive back Nolan Carroll (hamstring) practiced on a limited basis.

Davis has appeared in just four games this season, and none since Oct. 23 against the Denver Broncos as he recovers from a strained hamstring suffered on Sept. 18 and re-aggravated on Oct. 23. Davis has 16 tackles (15 solo) in 2011.

Gates hasn't played since Oct. 17. The rookie wideout has just one catch for eight yards this season, but has served as a kick returner, running back 19 kicks for 419 yards. The Dolphins made Gates the No. 111 pick in the most recent NFL Draft.

Carroll has tallied 22 tackles (18 solo) in his second professional season, spent in part filling in for Davis while Davis tried to recover from his injury.

Washington Redskins Injury Report, Week 10: Seven Players Miss Practice

The Washington Redskins are looking to stop their losing slide and got back on the practice field today. The team however, was without seven players for practice.

Keyaron Fox (skin infection), Santana Moss (hand), Niles Paul (turf toe), Jammal Brown (groin), Oshiomogho Atogwe (toe / knee), LaRon Landry (Achilles) and Markus White (stomach illness)

Moss has been out for a few weeks dealing with a broken hand and Atogwe has been on the injury report with a toe/knee injury week after week. Markus White is expected to practice tomorrow, assuming his illness clears up. Both Niles Paul and Santana Moss have already been declared out for the game against the Miami Dolphins, as expected.

Newly acquired running back Tashard Choice practiced in full today, after sitting out practice and the game last week. Choice is expected to make his Redskins debut on Sunday.
