Redskins vs Eagles Injury Report: Josh Norman out, Trent Williams delaying knee surgery

Redskins Head Coach Jay Gruden gave his final presser of the week on Saturday and ruled a few players out for Monday night's game against the Eagles.

The big name is obviously starting CB Josh Norman who will miss his 2nd straight game due to fractured ribs. Norman returned to practice, but was limited to individual drills and did not practice Saturday. He has not been cleared by doctors to return to full-time action.

Quinton Dunbar will replace Norman, and he did a very good job last week when he started vs the 49ers.

The Redskins other starting CB is questionable for this week's game. Bashaud Breeland left the 49ers game with a hamstring injury, but returned briefly before injuring his knee. The MRI revealed an MCL sprain, but Gruden is hopeful that Breeland will play this week. If Breeland can't go, rookie Fabian Moreau will get the start against Philadelphia. He has seen playing time already with the high amount of injuries in the Redskins secondary this year.

The Redskins offensive line depth will also be tested for this division game. Swing tackle Ty Nsekhe is still recovering from core muscle surgery and will miss another game. Guard Tyler Catalina will also not be available this week due to a concussion.

Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams is still playing through a lot of pain due to a knee injury that he revealed will require surgery. Williams will continue to play through the pain, and receive treatments to stay on the field, but he is not 100% and won't be for the rest of the year. The Redskins will rely on T.J. Clemmings if Williams misses any time.

The Redskins expect to get starting RB Rob Kelley back on the field this week. Kelley is returning from an ankle injury and has looked ready to go in practice. He will rejoin Chris Thompson and rookie Samaje Perine in the running back committee, with Mack Brown going back to the inactive list.

The Redskins also lost their starting kicker Dustin Hopkins for the season with a hip injury. Nick Rose will replace him. Washington also lost rookie DE Jonathan Allen after he got surgery for a Lisfranc injury. The Redskins re-signed A.J. Francis, and will have Anthony Lanier active and in the rotation. There have been reports that the Redskins could bring both players back from IR if they are healthy(and needed) after 8 weeks.
