EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Mark Sanchez and the New York Jets' offense sputtered again. They at least left the game against the Washington Redskins on a positive note. Sanchez connected with Dustin Keller for a 10-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter, capping a 15-play drive that gave New York a lead before Washington came back to win a snoozer 16-11 on Friday night. Larry Johnson, competing with Clinton Portis and Willie Parker for a spot in the backfield for the Redskins (2-1), caught a screen p |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Less than a month after taking the job of Washington Redskins coach, Mike Shanahan called a meeting. A big meeting. Everyone who works for the franchise was invited, from secretaries to marketing people to the employees based at the stadium on the other side of D.C. The only people not there were the players, who were off because it was February. It took place in the Redskins Park auditorium and lasted about an hour. Shanahan gave a power point presentation of some 50 points he thought w |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Receiver Anthony Armstrong says he's taken a ``very scenic'' route to the Washington Redskins. No one will argue with that. Armstrong went from West Texas A&M to something called the Intense Football League. From there he went to the Arena Football League before spending 2008 on the Miami Dolphins practice squad. Now he's the leading receiver during the preseason with the Redskins, a long-shot speedster making a surprisingly strong bid for a roster spot. Armstrong says he embraces |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Washington Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb will miss Friday's game against the New York Jets because of a sprained left ankle. McNabb has been unable to practice since getting hurt in Saturday night's preseason loss to the Baltimore Ravens. McNabb watched Tuesday's workout with a wrap around his ankle and wearing a baseball cap. Coach Mike Shanahan says the ankle is ``quite sore'' and that McNabb probably wouldn't be able to play if it were a regular season game.Copyright © 20 |

| Ashburn, VA (BettingExpress) - Washington Redskins safety Kareem Moore underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on Monday and is likely to miss four to six weeks worth of action. Moore was expected to start in Washington's defensive backfield this year, but his injury, which was suffered making a tackle on a fake punt in Saturday's preseason game against the Ravens, has given Reed Doughty and Chris Horton a chance to slide into his spot. The 26-year-old Moore played in all 16 games for Washington last season -- his se |

Meanwhile, Haynesworth returned to practice Monday. Defensive coordinator Jim Haslett says Haynesworth was still working with the backups but |
