ANALYSIS/OPINION:
When Reuben Foster went down on the third play of the Washington Redskins’ first day of their first session of voluntary offseason workouts on Monday, it seemed like a traumatic moment for the team. Photos, videos and descriptions of the injury to Foster — a severely torn knee ligament with possible artery damage, according to various reports — showed the concern and alarms of coach Jay Gruden and others who were there.
The key part of that sentence is “who were there.”
It wasn’t as traumatic for some Redskins — Josh Norman, Adrian Peterson, Trent Williams, Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis among them — who were not there on Day 1 with their teammates.
