The NFL preseason is finally over and the Redskins have the IR list to prove it. So far this year the Redskins lost the following players to injury:
LB James Gayle(Shoulder, reverted to teams IR)
CB Tevin Mitchel(Waived/Injured(Shoulder), claimed by Colts)
OLB Trevardo Williams(IR(Hamstring), Injury Settlement)
LB Adam Hayward(ACL, IR)
TE Niles Paul(Ankle, IR)
TE Logan Paulsen(Foot, IR)
RB Silas Redd, Jr.(ACL/MCL, IR)
OLB Junior Galette(Achilles, IR)
FB Jordan Campbell(Concussion, IR)
TE D.J. WIliams(Injury settlement)
S Akeem Davis(Injury settlement)
S DaMon Cromartie-Smith(Injury settlement)
WR Evan Spencer(Concussion, injury settlement)
Heading into the Week 1 matchup with the Miami Dolphins, the Redskins are the healthier team on paper. OT/TE/whatever they feel like playing him at this week Tom Compton could miss Sunday's game with a calf injury suffered during practice this week. Compton had served as the 3rd TE during preseason due to the high number of injuries at the position. The Redskins signed Anthony McCoy from the Seahawks, but Jay Gruden said he is still getting familiar with the offense. Derek Carrier was picked up via trade from the 49ers a few weeks ago, and will serve as the backup tight end to Jordan Reed. Ty Nsekhe will likely be the backup, swing tackle if Compton is out.
Robert Griffin III's status for Sunday, and on the Redskins roster depth chart is still in question as the team will now wait for the written evaluation from his 3rd concussion test before announcing he is cleared to return to the field with the team. For now, Griffin will be listed as the 3rd QB on the roster and be inactive on game days.
Frank Kearse is listed with a shoulder injury, but is expected to be active on Sunday.

How many players do the Miami Dolphins have on their injured reserve list from the 2015 preseason? One, S Louis Delmas.
