November 22, 2008 Washington Redskins head coach Jim Zorn believes Antwaan Randle El will play in Week 12, according to the AP. "He was a little ginger," Zorn said, "but I think by game time he'll be ready to go." Our View:Randle El is not a top of the line fantasy contributor but he does have 455 yards receiving and a touchdown. The Redskins have said that they want to try and involve the college quarterback into the offense more. |

September 16, 2008 The Washington Redskins may be thinking about trying other players out as their punt returner after witnessing the struggles of Antwaan Randle El, according to the Washington Post. Our View:Randle El is averaging just over four yards per return, and the team would like to see more out of him. Offensively, Randle El has 11 catches for 126 yards, making him - at best - a depth player at wideout on fantasy teams. |

August 31, 2008 Redskins wide out Antwaan Randle El has a broken bone in his left hand but expects to make the start Week 1 against the Giants while wearing a protective brace, according to the Washington Post. Our View:Randle El is not much of a factor in fantasy leagues at this point. He could be someone used for depth purposes in very deep leagues, but that is really all. |

August 16, 2008 Wide receiver Antwaan Randle El will not play in Saturday's preseason game due to a sore hamstring and personal reasons, the Washington Post notes. James Thrash will start in his place. Our View:Luckily for Antwaan, the Redskins top two rookies (Malcolm Kelly, Devin Thomas) haven't made a hard push for his job in camp. Randle El remains the starter despite this missed action. |

July 20, 2008 Antwaan Randle El returned to practice Sunday, for his first real action since having his knee scoped in May, according to the Washington Post.

June 13, 2008 Washington wide receiver Antwaan Randle El is expected to participate fully in training camp, according to the Washington Post. Our View:Randle El had surgery May 6 to remove floating cartilage in his right knee. He had hoped to recover in time to take part in the final eight workouts that ended yesterday, but his knee did not cooperate. Santana Moss should start at one spot, leaving Randle El to compete with rookies Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly for the other starting role this season. |

May 20, 2008 Antwaan Randle El said his recovery from minor arthroscopic surgery earlier this month is going well and he hopes to begin running shortly, according to the Washington Post. Our View:Santana Moss should start at one spot, so Randle El will battle rookies Malcolm Kelly and Devin Thomas for the other starting role this season. Randle El racked up 51 receptions for 728 yards and one score over 14 games in 2007, and would seemingly have the edge if healthy, while the aforementioned rookies learn the ropes. |

May 7, 2008 Washington Redskins receiver Antwaan Randle El, with crutches under both arms, said the surgery on his right knee went as expected and that he hopes to return to the field for offseason practices next month, according to ESPN. Randle El said the knee was swollen after minicamp practice Saturday. A MRI found loose cartilage, possibly the residual effects of getting the knee banged in a couple games last season, and he had arthroscopic surgery Monday. "The big thing is get it done now and not have it happen during training camp," Randle El said. Our View:This doesn’t sound like a serious situation, but anytime surgery is involved strange things can happen. Randle El needs to be 100% healthy for his potential training camp battle with rookie receivers Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly. |

May 6, 2008 The Washington Redskins report WR Antwaan Randle El has undergone arthroscopic knee surgery today and should be fully recovered by the start of training camp, according to the Associated Press. Our View:Coach Jim Zorn reports a recent MRI discovered a "floating body" causing irritation in the knee, leading to the procedure to alleviate the problem. Zorn told reporters the team expects Randle El will need at least three to four weeks to recover, giving more than enough time to prepare for the start of training campin mid-July. |

May 6, 2008 Wide receiver Antwaan Randle El underwent arthroscopic knee surgery yesterday and is expected to return for the Washington Redskins' second session of organized team activities that start in June, according to the Washington Post. Randle El, who sat out the start of organized team activities on Monday because of his knee injury, had what head coach Jim Zorn described as a "fairly minor" procedure to remove floating cartilage in his knee. "He'll be here for the next set of OTAs," said Zorn. ”This should be a three to four-week deal, I think. I haven't heard any report. This is just what the preliminary thoughts were when they went in." Our View:In 15 games last season, Randle El, the Redskins' No. 2 receiver behind Santana Moss, had 51 receptions for 728 yards and one touchdown. He could be pushed for playing time in 2008 by rookie additions Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly. |
