Pat Shurmur was so sure on Friday that Odell Beckham Jr. would play in the game against the Redskins that he didn’t even give him a designation on the injury report. The wide receiver was a limited participant in that day’s practice with a bruised quadriceps, an injury suffered on the last play of the loss to the Eagles two weeks ago, but Shurmur insisted that Beckham would be available.
“Just gave him a little time,” Shurmur said on Friday. “He’s gonna be fine. He’s playing.”
Nope.
On Saturday, Beckham was downgraded to out. He did not make the trip to Washington with the team and will not play in Sunday’s game at FedEx Field.
