ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Football Team received better-than-expected news on tight end Logan Thomas' injured left knee, coach Ron Rivera said, but that does not yet mean Thomas will return this season.
Rivera said an MRI revealed that Thomas did not tear his ACL, as was originally feared, but that there was damage to his knee. Initial reports said Washington feared that he had torn both his ACL and MCL. A torn MCL would still require surgery and could sideline him for the rest of the season, barring a playoff run, according to a source.
