Redskins CB Adonis Alexander set to miss time with quad injury

It was an acquisition flush with subtle promise and hope, when the Washington Redskins selected Adonis Alexander in the sixth round of the 2018 NFL supplemental draft.

Alexander, a looming 6-foot-3 figure out of Virginia Tech, would be rejoining college teammates Tim Settle and Greg Stroman, as well as college defensive backs coach Torrian Gray. It was believed to be a reunion that would help glean the best out of the young player.

Fast-forward to today: Alexander is a year into the NFL, coming off of an uneventful season.
