Washington Football Team puts top O-lineman Brandon Scherff on IR with knee injury

The Washington Football Team placed guard Brandon Scherff on injured reserve Monday after he suffered a knee injury during Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Scherff has a sprained right MCL and is expected to miss three to five weeks, a source told ESPN, confirming an NFL Network report.

Players must miss a minimum of three weeks when placed on IR under rules instituted for the 2020 season because of the coronavirus pandemic.
