BLUE 1,026 Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) Per Rotoworld.com: According to ProFootballTalk, Fred Davis is done for the season after tearing his left Achilles' tendon in Sunday's Week 7 game against the Giants.It's a brutal injury for Davis. He's in the final year of his contract and was in the midst of a solid year with 23 catches for 312 yards through the first six games. Now he'll be in a race just to get healthy for 2013 training camp. The Redskins' in-house replacements include converted wideout Niles Paul and Logan Paulsen. Chris Cooley is also available on the free agent market. Oct 21 - 2:22 PM Source: Profootballtalk on NBCSports.com Edited October 22, 2012 by BLUE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Franchise 5 1 Posted October 21, 2012 They'll probably sign Chris Cooley. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dutch 874 Posted October 21, 2012 Big blow to the skins. Fred Davis was their leading receiver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLUE 1,026 Posted October 22, 2012 Per Rotoworld.com: CBS' Jason La Canfora confirms the Redskins have "reached out" to free agent TE Chris Cooley in the wake of Fred Davis' season-ending injury, and will likely finalize a deal "shortly."The Washington Post reports the signing will become official following a Monday physical. It makes perfect sense, as Cooley is well-versed in coach Mike Shanahan's offense, and has had two extra months to heal up coming off his injury-marred 2011. It's extremely unlikely Cooley re-emerges as a factor in fantasy leagues, but he shouldn't need more than a few days to get up to speed on the offense, and will likely be ready to play by next Sunday.

AllYouNeedIsLovie 377 Posted October 22, 2012 Wow, huge loss for the Skins. Davis was probably RG3's most reliable weapon. Very underrated TE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bucman 891 Posted October 22, 2012 Redskins have been hurt with the injury bug hard this year. Also I wonder if they fire Raheem Morris after the year that secondary is having. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted October 22, 2012 Definitely an underrated TE. Hadn't even met his full potential yet. Sucks that he is not only hurt... But that he is lost for the year. And what sucks EVEN MORE.. is the type of injury. Brutal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted October 22, 2012 It's official. @john_keim: yes, as expected, Cooley is back, confirmed via text #redskins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duck Fallas 209 Posted October 25, 2012 I knew the Redskins would bring Cooley back at some point. It really sucks that it had to be due to an injury to our top reciever. At least there won't be much of a drop off in productivity or pass catching from Dsvis to Cooley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigBen07 285 Posted October 25, 2012 Oh, shit... I really hate seeing a player go down with these types of injuries, especially if they have a promising career. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
