Adam Hayward Making Strides In Recovery

Placed on injured-reserve after a freak leg injury last season, linebacker and special teams captain Adam Hayward said he feels great heading into offseason workouts.

Adam Hayward wasn’t shedding tears because of the physical pain.

One thing that was hard to break to the 6-1, 240-pound linebacker – stronger than any bone for that matter – was he’d be out for an extended period of time.

The Redskins placed him on injured-reserve Nov. 24, the day after the team’s Week 12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, after suffering a tibial plateau fracture in his right leg.
