Jamison Crowder, two Others Limited

When asked about the severity of Anderson’s stinger, Gruden replied, “He practiced today on a limited basis, so it’s coming along. We’ll have to wait and see; probably tomorrow, we’ll have a final verdict on whether or not he’ll go. He’s made progress.”
For the Redskins, Thursday brought news of Jamison Crowder having tweaked the joint in his hip-flexor injury. His appearance on the injury report was unexpected but should not scare fans, as Crowder has yet to miss a single start in the NFL since coming in as a rookie last season. It appears that third-year Redskins player Junior Galette will finally see his first game in burgundy and gold after two seasons of injuries kept him off the field. In the last two seasons, Galette played in; he averaged 10+ sacks each for the New Orleans Saints.
Second-year receiver Josh Doctson was also listed as a full participant in practice as the hamstring that bothered him before the Redskins week 3 game during the preseason appears to have gone away.
