Meriweather avoids serious injury to his knee

The Redskins may or may not have lost Saturday night’s “game” against the Bears (I didn’t care enough to pay attention to the final score and don’t care enough to look it up, since it’s completely meaningless), but they’ve definitely avoided a more important loss.

An MRI shows that Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather has no significant damage to his left knee, according to Mark Maske of the Washington Post.  Per Maske, it’s still unknown when Meriweather will return.

Meriweather, a former first-round pick in New England, signed with the Redskins as a free agent during the offseason.  He has been on track to winning a starting job.

The news about Meriweather comes on the heels of the news that linebacker Brian Orakpo suffered no serious injury to his shoulder.

    We’ll be alright. My big issue with the defense is the missed INTs so far. About 5 in total over two gms. This unit will be special though and that’s the bottom line cause Stone Cold said so!

    Attention Redskin fans: good luck with the self-anointed ‘party starter’.

    You’re gonna need it.

    Why do these Redskins fans insist on posting like washed up wrestlers? Just more proof of how sad and pathetic it is to be a fan of that washed up franchise….

    You really don’t think that if you looked hard enough, you could find three or four really pathetic, obnoxious, socially dysfunctional Broncos fans?

    And you don’t think there’s any chance that any of these guys are just imitators who think it’s funny that their comments reflect poorly on the entire Washington fan base and inspire hatred towards Washington and Robert Griffin from random NFL fans across the country who previously had no feelings one way or another about the Redskins?
