Washington Football Team's Curtis Samuel placed on IR with groin injury

ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Football Team receiver Curtis Samuel will miss three weeks after being placed on injured reserve as he recovers from a lingering groin injury that he first suffered in the spring.

Samuel re-injured his groin while going through warm-up drills Wednesday and did not practice Thursday, though he did go through stretching exercises with the team and on a side field.

After opening training camp on the physically unable to perform list for what was expected to be a short stay, Samuel was placed on the COVID-19 list and missed two weeks of practices.
