When we first heard of the walking boot on Donovan McNabb’s ankle on Monday, it was reported that the aircast was “precautionary.”
The cast was gone by Tuesday, but McNabb missed his second straight day of practice while he had his ankle wrapped on the sideline. Washington’s third preseason game is on Friday and McNabb’s status is uncertain.
Mike Shanahan was hoping to get McNabb to get a lot of work in his new offense; that’s why McNabb attempted 25 passes in the first half against Baltimore last week.
