Jay Gruden spoke to reporters today to give updates on the Redskins during this short, Thanksgiving week. Washington has already ruled out 4 players for tomorrow’s Giants game, after placing 4 players on injured reserve yesterday. TE Jordan Reed(hamstring) will miss his 4th straight game, and his 5th of the season. S Montae Nicholson(concussion) misses another game in his injury-filled rookie season. Center Chase Roullier broke his hand in the 1st quarter last week and had surgery. DL Terrell McClain will miss his first game of the year with a toe injury. Gruden also said there would be 7 or 8 game time decisions. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving games:
Jay Gruden said playing on Thanksgiving night is fun, but the other TNF games are “unfair” to the players’ minds and bodies. But he adds: “It is what it is.” #redskins

Lost in the chaos of 2017, #Redskins still dont have an NFC East win. Gruden said the team needs it and needs to play well at home.
