Shawn Springs' days as a Redskin are numbered...

Talk about the Washington Football Team here. Do you bleed burgundy and gold?

Have you read it before? If not, I'm sure you'll like the whole series!

Yeah, Dallas is too easy for Springs. His dad played in Dallas, and I'm sure that would be his second choice, but if he's all about the benjamins (which he seems to be) he'll wind up in Oakland.

Springs will be forced to take a pay cut. He will be back.


That would be nice. I like Springs but hes always hurt. As long as we arent paying him to much to get hurt all the time
RIP SEAN TAYLOR #21

Shawn Springs re-injured his calf during Sunday’s game and his status is day to day, Jim Zorn said.

Springs has missed five games this season due to the injury, which he suffered before the Redskins’ season opener.

“It keeps him from allowing him to burst,” Zorn said. “It continues to re-occur, so it doesn’t have the strength and stamina that he needs--and we need--for him to be out there.”

Springs has 24 tackles, one sack and one interception this season.


I don't believe Springs will be wearing a Redskins uniform next season. He has an expensive contract and he's missed far too many games over the past few seasons, due to endless injuries, to sustain such a large contract or to simply retain his services. And I doubt he'll restructure his contract, based on the recent history of his unwillingness to renegotiate. The addition of Hall, who has in just three games, already made an impact with two INT's, makes Springs expendable.


That's another reason we snagged Hall.
Springs is old, tired, and always injured.
Bye bye Springs!
