Redskins Junior Galette looking to prove that hard work pays off

For a player who exudes confidence, Junior Galette hasn’t attracted much of it on his road to recovery.

Galette joined the Redskins almost exactly two years ago, signing a one-year deal following a second double-digit sack campaign with the Saints. That one-year deal was supposed to be a prove it deal. The Redskins were asking him to replicate his production in their scheme, and stay out of trouble off the field all the while.

They never got to see it happen. Two Achilles tears, 32 regular season games, and 729 days later, Galette has yet to play a down with the Washington Redskins.
