Redskins injury updates (12/28): Tyler Polumbus limited in practice

← return to Redskins Watch

Concussed right tackle Tyler Polumbus was limited in Friday’s practice and will be listed as questionable for Sunday night’s NFC East division championship game against Dallas.

He was cleared for full practice, but coach Mike Shanahan limited his participation to give other players repetitions in case Polumbus suffers a setback before kickoff Sunday. Maurice Hurt replaced Polumbus in the starting lineup in last Sunday’s victory over Philadelphia.

“I did what I could,” Polumbus said. “I feel like I’m making progress toward Sunday. We’ll see where that goes.

“As a competitor, you want to be out there for everything. I’m certainly going to do everything in my power to get out there and be a part of this game.”

Shanahan was pleased by how Polumbus practiced.

“He looked pretty good, which is a good sign,” Shanahan said.

Safety DeJon Gomes (sprained MCL, left knee) also will be listed as questionable.
