Colt McCoy – Important – Injury
QB Colt McCoy sustained a fractured right fibula during the final play of the first quarter of Monday’s 28-13 setback to the Philadelphia Eagles. McCoy is scheduled to undergo further testing on Tuesday, but is expected to become the team’s second starting quarterback to see his season come to an end. Alex Smith broke his fibula and tibia in Washington’s 23-21 loss to the Houston Texans on Nov. 18. “This is a tough blow,” Redskins coach Jay Gruden said. “Losing Alex was one thing. He was a great leader, great quarterback. Then Colt finally gets his opportunity and he gets kicked in the leg and breaks it. I’m heartbroken for both of those guys.”
