Redskins' 1987 replacement players to get Super Bowl rings Tuesday

They helped save the Washington Redskins’ season, winning three games while other contenders lost the same number. For their efforts, the Redskins awarded the 1987 replacement players with a share of the playoff money.

On Tuesday, the Redskins will host a ceremony to give those replacement players what many wanted most: a Super Bowl ring. At least 22 of them will attend -- and there’s a chance some who were on the other side of the picket line will be there as well.

“There’s a time and place for everything,” said Charley Casserly, the former Redskins general manager who will host the ceremony.
