No surprise. Helu hasn't looked right at all in these 3 games.

Well, Redskins have officially announced he's been place on IR so that's all the confirmation I need

Not all that surprising, bigger surprise is that he wasn't placed on IR before the season started.

Some of you know I was saying back in July he was a strong candidate for IR. Never could quite get healthy enough.

I still hear Royster may miss some time though. Week or two perhaps

Sucks to hear Helu is ailing this early in his NFL career. He had some injuries in college (though I had forgotten that before), but so far this seems pretty serious. His workload last season wasn't that big, just under 700 yds I think, and it's like he's never recovered. Boo

Just a wild guess though.

What was the injury to Helu? I know he hasn't looked right but i haven't heard what was specifically wrong with him.

Spinal?

Roy Helu placed on season-ending injured reserve

Helu heads to IR with turf toe - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins

It's turf toe from what I've seen.

Why not just IR him?

edit. Just as I post this, I see your post above about him going to IR.

Re: Redskins Sign RB Ryan Grant/Place Roy Helu Jr. on IR

This is unbelievable...the injuries!


The Grant signing was crucial. He's probably the best available RB on the market.

Hopefully Hightower heals up and signs later in the season too.
