News & Notes: Moss Listed As Probable

November 16, 2007

Santana Moss returned to practice on Friday and the team listed him as probable heading into Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Moss has been slowed by a nagging heel injury in recent weeks. The injury sidelined him in last week's game against Philadelphia, but with James Thrash out with an ankle injury and Brandon Lloyd now on injured reserve, Moss's services are needed.

"From doing what I did in practice, I should be able to play," Moss said.

Added Gibbs: "Santana looked good. He got treatment during the week. We had everybody in the world look at the MRI of his heel, and everyone is convinced that it's a soft-tissue thing. I think he felt a lot better on Thursday and he took practice [Friday]."

If Moss plays, the Redskins would go into the Dallas game with starters Moss and Antwaan Randle El backed up by Keenan McCardell and Reche Caldwell.

Moss has had produced some of his best games against Dallas. In four games, he has 16 catches for 365 yards and two touchdowns. Both touchdowns came in the memorable 2005 contest when the Redskins came from behind in the final minutes to beat the Cowboys 14-13 at Texas Stadium.

"When you talk about how we've missed big plays, I think Santana is a big play guy for us," Gibbs said. "It would be great to get him back."

Newcomer Jimmy Farris could also be activated and serve on special teams. Farris, a four-year veteran signed on Thursday, would take the role of Thrash on punt and kickoff coverage.

I need to see some production. We have been doing well without him. I want to SEE that he makes a difference. Go Skins.

You mean in 2005? Seriously, dude is a beast when healthy. He just hasn't been healthy since 2005.

This is great news for the Skins. It forces Dallas to keep the safeties honest most of the time. I hope that Gibbs utilizes him more in the gameplan if Moss is even close to 90%.

My thinking about this game has been that we have a chance (however slight it is) to win if Campbell can continue what he started last week, and put some legit points up.

I am doubtful of that happening without moss out there...while RE has looked pretty good this year, and KM has made some plays when hes actually gotten the chance, the two of them are not going to be able to produce as # 1 and 2 wr's. With moss in there though they will both have a better chance to get open and make some plays, hopefully between the three of them we can mount an offensive attack in the mold of pearl harbor.....bomb after bomb after bomb.

Attack Roy Williams and his overrated coverage skills with Moss like back in 2005
