Jordan Reed ruled out for Redskins' season opener

PHILADELPHIA — The Washington Redskins ruled out tight end Jordan Reed of Sunday’s season opener against the Eagles with a concussion.

In a corresponding move, Washington signed tight end J.P. Holtz from its practice squad and waived wideout Robert Davis.

Reed was a limited participant in practice this week, but has yet to clear concussion protocol. The 29-year-old suffered the head injury, at least the sixth of his career, in Washington’s preseason game against the Falcons after a helmet-to-helmet hit with safety Keanu Neal. Neal was fined for the collision.

“He’s been taking tests,” coach Jay Gruden said Thursday.
