S Anderson Russell (official thread)

Moore said following the game that it was a minor sprain -- "that's all" -- but team sources later revealed that the team fears he'll likely miss the season opener against Dallas.

His absence will cause some lineup shuffling. Moore is the only natural free safety on the roster. On the most recent depth chart, Reed Doughty and Anderson Russell are listed as the second- and third-team free safeties. But it's possible the team will shift Chris Horton over from strong safety and give him some reps while Moore recovers.

Chris Horton to IR, Anderson Russell replaces him
By Jason Reid

Redskins Coach Mike Shanahan said Horton, who had been dealing with a sprained ankle, suffered a setback in the Detroit game - a more debilitating high-ankle sprain.

"He'd been doing a great job on special teams," Shanahan said. "That ankle's been bothering him. He's had a normal ankle sprain that's been in the area of a few weeks, and obviously the high ankle sprain really keeps him out for the season."

The Redskins announced several roster moves Monday after returning from their bye week, assigning safety Chris Horton to the season-ending injured-reserve list and promoting safety Anderson Russell to take Horton's spot on the 53-man active roster.

Anderson Russell: The rookie safety, who was due to play on defense in the absence of LaRon Landry, also suffered an injury on the punt rthat Tennessee's Marc Mariani returned for a touchdown. Russell said he would get an MRI on his knee Monday.

"Hopefully it's not really anything too serious," he said. "I didn't get hit. I was getting off a block. I went to push the guy by me, and planting on the leg, and I just felt it get weak."

That wiped out what Russell hoped would be a big day.

"I was ready to go," he said. "I've been paying attention all week in practice. I was going to be on all the special teams. It's one of those unfortunate things."
