I really feel for Guice. His enthusiasm and attitude are infectious and he seems to love the game and exude joy when he plays. Exactly what we need. If only his knees were on board.
I hope this is minor and allows him to continue to play. Worth erring on the side of caution and resting him as much as possible and focus on long term health.

We don’t close the door on Guice at all but as an organization you can’t “Jordan Reed” this position. Proactive instead of Reactive

+1. I'd let AP walk and bring in a running back to compete via the draft. Chris Thompson should be leaving and Bryce Love can step into his role. That way if Guice gets hurt again the alternative is a rb fresh out of college.

Derrius Guice will be out for Redskins vs Eagles this week. Not sure for the rest of the season.
-----------------------------------
This team isnt doing anything next year, I dont want to designate to much money to the RB position. If you arent a contender and dont already have a big contract for RB on the books .... go running back by committee, maybe find yourself a gem that way as well. Dont we already have AP on for next year plus Guice is still on his rookie deal.
I think a RB1 is only added as a cherry on top type piece.

You would have to be a fking idiot(Bruce Allen)to count on Guice for next year, Does that mean give up on him?, No, but you can’t count on him. We have to get another running back either through the draft or free agency.There are rb’s that have had reconstructive surgery on both knees and had decent careers(Terry Allen),I don’t know how many,but I would bet that they were on their 2nd or 3rd team when they did, There’s only so long you can deal with it as a team that drafted him.I have a feeling that’s what’s gonna happen with Guice,If he ever gets healthy it will probably be with another team
I highly doubt we'll be counting on him for anything.

Chris Thompson counts 4 million towards the cap and is coming off the books. AP is at 1.7 million now and 3 million next year with no cost to cut him.
5.7 million per year for a Free Agent RB will get a solid, complimentary piece. Its peanuts for a piece of mind going into next season with a rehabbing Love and Guice.

A lot can change in a year, it happens all the time. I wouldn't say this team will suck just yet

According to Ian Rapoport, it's just a MCL sprain for Guice.. This is a great news and hopefully it will allow Guice to figure out how to strengthen his knees and body this offseason.
I really hope Guice will look into Dr. Sharif Tabbah and his team for physical training, I imagine it would do a wonder for Guice's body. If any of you guys have a direct contact with Guice - tell him to check out Dr. Tabbah!

Only a sprain. I would end his season to be safe. But won't need surgery at least.
