Wow.
Eagles placed FB Leonard Weaver on injured reserve with three ligament tears and nerve damage in his left knee, ending his season.
He'll need major reconstructive surgery. A useful and highly versatile fullback prior to the injury, Weaver had just signed an extension through 2012 this offseason. Coming off such a serious injury, he won't be brought back at his 2011 salary of $2.5 million, and might be lucky just to play again.

Yep and they also just signed his replacement in Owen Schmitt FB from Seattle...
Isn't that the crazy college FB with the mohawk?
Isn't he a rookie or a 1 year guy?

Yuck. Didn't even notice that when I posted the uniform pics.
Guess he's done...forever.
McGahee's looked at lot worse.

I remember his name now. Schmitt was the guy who bashed his own head open with his own helmet. I posted his Youtube video in the Super Happy Fun Thread.
He'll fit in fine in Philly.
He's been out of WVU for a few years now.

Sounds like we'll be wearing them next week again, according to Larry Michael on Redskins Nation tonight:
But to see those burgundy and gold uniforms, you know what, you're going to see them again, you're going to see them next week, how could you not wear those uniforms again if you're the Redskins. They looked great and they are winning uniforms.
Wear them all season, why not? Bring 'em back for good, it's a new team, new outlook.

I thought the big uglies up front wore them well
