Redskins rookie wide receiver Josh Doctson appeared in just two games this season before an Achilles injury sidelined him. The team wants him to rehab and rest before coming back for the 2017 season.
With the Washington Redskins potentially needing assistance at the center position with Spencer Long’s status uncertain for Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the team announced on Wednesday that Kory Lichtensteiger has been designated for return.
Lichtensteiger, who was placed on Injured Reserve in September with a calf injury, has a 21-day practice period for the team to evaluate his potential return to the active roster.
