But since the beginning, it has been strong and sturdy. It’s just that there’s a fair amount of pain management and soft-tissue work that you got to do to keep it moving.”

“I’ll take the same process that I’ve taken the last four or five years,” he told reporters. “I’ll take some time to let the emotions of the season kind of get away, refresh for a little bit and then sit down with my family and make the decision as [to] whether I’ll continue to play or not.”

Also restricted free agents are not included which includes FB Darrel Young, TE Logan Paulsen and top reserve OLBRob Jackson. If the Redskins were to re-sign all of these guys to very moderate deals, it would be an additional $8-12 million against the cap. This means the Redskins would need to clear at least $12 million from the payroll, even if they don’t upgrade a single position (outside the draft).
