LOVERRO: Redskins players, medical staff not on same page

At the entrance to Redskins Park in Ashburn, Inova Sports Medicine recently installed a new display noting their “health and wellness” partnership with the football team.

Appropriately, it is a stone slab — one step removed from a tombstone.

I have no doubt that in July 2016, when the Redskins and Inova announced a partnership to “bring timely and relevant health and wellness information and programs to the community,” it seemed like a good idea at the time.

But right now, “health” and “wellness” are two words that are not remotely connected with this football team.
