Redskins guard Arie Kouandjio will miss 2018 season after surgery

Redskins LG Arie Kouandjio will miss 2018 season after surgery

According to ESPN’s John Keim, Washington Redskins guard Arie Kouandjio will miss the entire 2018 season.

Keim’s full post about Kouandjio went on to say the team would officially announce his move to the injured reserve tomorrow.

Kouandjio had surgery to repair his torn quadriceps muscle last week. Kouandjio is looking at a six to eight-month recovery time.

The injury comes as a significant shot in the arm to the Redskins who were leaning towards letting Kouandjio fight it out for the starting left guard position. The team re-signed last year’s opening day starter, Shawn Lauvao a few days before Kouandjio’s injury. The team already had question marks at the left guard position and is now left without any experienced depth at the spot.
