Donovan McNabb was wearing a protective boot on his left ankle as a precaution, and was one of several Redskins to sit out Monday's practice following the team's 23-3 loss to the Ravens on Saturday, NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora reports.
*The Washington Post* reported that McNabb attended practice but did not wear pads or take part in the practice session open to the media, wearing what appeared to be an air cast on his foot.
We're talking 'bout practice
Albert Haynesworth voiced his displeasure when he was held out until the third quarter of Saturday's game against the Ravens. Coach Mike Shanahan replied that practices makes perfect. **More ...**
Coach Mike Shanahan said he wasn't sure when McNabb will resume practice or whether the quarterback will play against the Jets.
"We'll just get as much treatment as we can and get him as ready as quick as we can," Shanahan said.
McNabb, who was only expected to play the first half on Saturday, emerged from the locker room after halftime with a large wrap around his lower left leg and ankle.
"It's not bad, just a little sore, but things like that happen in a heated game like we played," McNabb said Saturday.
Free safety Kareem Moore is expected to miss four to six weeks after undergoing an arthroscopic procedure on his sprained right knee Monday, the team said. He was injured defending a fake punt and went down without contact.
Reed Doughty will take Moore's spot in Friday's game against the New York Jets. Chris Horton will also compete for the starting job.
To fill Moore's spot, the team signed safety Tyrone Carter. Carter, 34, spent the last six seasons in Pittsburgh, playing in all 16 games in each of the last five.
Carter and fullback Carey Davis, signed by the team on Sunday, were on the practice field on Monday. Fullback Mike Sellers, a former Pro Bowler, injured his knee in the second quarter of Saturday's game.
Trent Williams, the fourth overall pick in the draft, appeared to be practicing after suffering an elbow contusion, the Post reported. Williams emerged from the locker room after halftime with his arm in a sling.
Albert Haynesworth, who has been trading barbs with coach Mike Shanahan over his illness and playing time, participated in position drills and appeared to be operating at full-speed, the Post reported.
