The Washington Redskins starting right guard Mike Williams has been confirmed not to put on his Redskins jersey and play the team’s last game of the season because of a torn muscle in his foot.
It’s the latest in a series of injuries to offensive linemen for the Redskins, who are 4-11 heading into this weekend’s game against the San Diego Chargers. According to Redskins Coach Jim Zorn, starting safety Reed Doughty has a high ankle sprain and probably will be listed as doubtful against the Chargers.
And there are still more injuries in the team, but are less serious.
In other injury news from Washington’s 17-0 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, linebacker Rocky McIntosh’s back spasms improved, and offensive lineman Stephon Heyer’s right knee was better. Wide receiver Devin Thomas did footwork drills Monday and will try to play this weekend, after missing last Sunday’s game with a sprained ankle.

Favre said his groin injury won’t break his record durability streak
Having enough time to heal during the Minnesota Vikings’ bye week, Brett Favre said his pulled groin muscle is fine and plans to maintain his record durability streak, or he hopes so.
He pulled the muscle during a drill two weeks ago and said the injury was aggravated in pregame warmup for the game against his old team Green Bay Packers on Nov. 1. But it seemed that the injury did not matter at all as he still led the current team to win over the old team.
Favre seemed like to pass former Vikings defensive lineman Jim Marshall in the number of regular season games played. Marshall set the NFL record for a non-kicker by playing 283 consecutive regular season games, and Favre needs only four more games to break that record, and become the second player wearing Vikings jersey achieving the record.

Bengals WR Henry broke arm and might miss the remaining season
The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry had severe injury and might miss the remaining games of the season.
In fact, it is still unsure how severe the injury is, but Henry just lost another chance to contribute as much as he could to the team’s win. The receiver in Bengals jersey broke his left forearm just above the wrist when he was tackled by cornerback in Ravens jersey Fabian Washington after a 20-yard reception. Henry’s back hit the ground and Washington landed on top of him, and he knew immediately that the injury was severe.
And his status for the rest of the season won’t be known until he sees a specialist today. With a two-year contract to expire after this season, Henry may have to pray that he will not be injured severely enough to sit out all the remaining season. As the fourth receiver behind Chad Ochocinco, Laveranues Coles and Andre Caldwell, Henry had 12 catches for 236 yards and two touchdowns for this season.
