Redskins Injury Report: TE Derek Carrier Suffers Knee Injury


Redskins vs. Bears | Week 14 Highlights | NFL

CHICAGO The Redskins escaped Soldier Field with a 24-21 victory over the Chicago Bears and limited injuries.

The most serious injury was to tight end Derek Carrier, who was already fighting an Achilles tendon strain and a sore ankle. Carrier sustained a knee injury after catching a pass from quarterback Kirk Cousins with 2:37 left in the first quarter.

With JeRon Hamm inactive, only Jordan Reed and converted offensive tackle Tom Compton were available to play tight end once Carrier left the field. He did not return. He will have an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the damage.

Were checking [Carriers] knee, Redskins coach Jay Gruden said.

In other injury news, right tackle Morgan Moses missed some time while being evaluated for a concussion, but was allowed to return to the game. DeSean Jackson banged his knee and limped to the training table. He, too, returned to play.

Just a little sore, Gruden said of Jacksons injury.

Veteran defensive end Jason Hatcher (pinched nerve, ankle) played a limited role on Sunday, though he was active. Other injured players who were not active included running back Chris Thompson (shoulder), wide receiver Andre Roberts (knee), safety Jeron Johnson (hamstring) and linebacker Perry Riley, Jr. (broken foot).
