Hightower Tears ACL - Out for Season

[Giantmetfan07]

Washington’s worst fears were realized Monday when the team learned running back Tim Hightower will miss the season with a torn ACL.

Hightower was the team’s starter on Sunday, his fifth start of the season. He led the team with 321 rushing yards on the year.

Ryan Torain and Roy Helu split the work after Hightower left, a plan that figures to continue against the Bills this week.

The Redskins are not a deep team. With Santana Moss also out, in addition to a couple of starting offensive lineman, Washington’s shaky bench will be tested in the coming weeks.

Torain better pick it up. He's killed me in fantasy after I picked him up following his huge game before their bye week.

Thats it, season over. Redskins are done, Grossman got lucky first couple games in the year. Bech is in, Moss is out 5-7 weeks, and now Hightower is done. Its so early in the year, but all those things crippled this team too much to win the division.
