Henson's Injury

Henson injured knee Thursday ... RT @MikeJonesTBD: Perry Riley has made the team, source says. Also told Henson had surgery today. #Redskins

As soon as I hear surgery I start thinking recovery times, and what kind of surgery it was. If it was a sprain I doubt it would require surgery which leads me to believe it might've been a tear. If it was an MCL or PCL, maybe he could come back this season? If it was ACL he's done for the year.

He was cut tday by the Redskins.... on Redskins.com

What does cut - injured really mean?

What does cut - injured really mean?

Means he got an injury settlement and was released.

I would think they would have had to give him and Oldenburg some kind of injury settlement.

Well not think, I know they have to. You cannot release a player for being injured without an injury settlement.

So, we do not retain his rights in any way, right?

Right, he can sign anywhere, but without knowing the extent of his injury, I would say he will most likely be a FA at the end of the year.

ok, could we bring him b ack in the middle of the year vs IR?

Sorry, for the simple questions, just don't know and I really liked the performance in the Arizona game.

I agree C. If he his healthy at some point this year and not signed by another team, there is no reason why we could not resign him at any point in time.

As of right now Robert Henson is a Free Agent. No Restrictions or rights held by any team. He is available to the whole league to sign as of now.

Why didn't we put him on IR?
