The Redskins are placing running back Derrius Guice on Injured Reserve, with the plan of having him return after eight weeks, according to multiple reports. Guice had knee surgery earlier this week and was given a four to six week timeline for recovery.
Guice was first reported to potentially miss "as many as eight weeks" due to the meniscus injury on Thursday after meeting with Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion on his injured knee. Andrews performed surgery on Guice's torn ACL suffered before the 2018 season.
Washington drafted Guice in the second round of the 2018 NFL draft.
