Guice, according to Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post, has sustained a meniscus injury. Can confirm the Derrius Guice injury is to the meniscus. Timeline is still up in the air. One belief is could be back by next Monday if things go well. Another source says could be up to four weeks. Kareem Copeland (@kareemcopeland) It's being reported Guice won't CJ Wilson Jersey suit up in Week 2 and potentially beyond as the Redskins work to determine the exact i sue and if surgery will be needed, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.The knee in question, however, is the one he injured in his time at LSU. The knee currently receiving an MRI is the same knee Derrius Guice injured in college. The ACL knee was the healthier knee. Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) Much like Allen's absence on the defensive side of the ball, the Redskins will now go forward without their starting running back to help boost the offensive counterparts. Unlike the situation with Allen, though, there's a proven veteran in Hall of Fame halfback waiting in the wings -- after being . It was a move that reportedly did not go over well with Peterson and others in the locker room, and head coach Jay Gruden did himself no favors with postgame comments that were construed as a devaluation of Peterson. "He's a first and second down back," Gruden said, via Barry Svrluga of . "So is Derrius. So, really, what do we have? About 20 first downs a game."Probably eight of those are pa ses, 12 of those might be runs, and Derrius can handle those 12. ... So if we have a game where we think we can run the ball 55 times in a game in an I-formation, then sure, I'll get him up."Gruden received some flack after not dre sing Peterson this Huston Street Jersey past Sunday. One of his biggest critics was former Redskins receiver Santana Mo s, who during a radio spot on 106.7 The Fan. Mo s, among other things, said that Gruden's decision not to dre s Peterson was a "slap in the face" to a player who will one day see his career immortalized in Canton, Ohio. "When you have a guy with that capability, that can go out there and be a difference maker, regardle s of how old he is, you find a way for him to be on your field, or at least dre s," Mo s said, via . "I don't care if you start him, but have him in uniform, because you never know when you want to lean on a guy like that. Adrian Peterson shouldn't have to even experience that, being that he Chris Young Jersey 's a future Hall of Famer and he carried that offense the whole entire season when we didn't have anything."Gruden may now have no choice but to dre s Peterson this weekend while repairing the relationship in the proce s. The Redskins rushed for a total of 28 yards against the Eagles, which caused many to justifiably take aim at Gruden for deciding to bench Peterson in the first place after he produced more than 1,000 yards in 16 starts for the team in 2018. Health-wise, the Redskins are moving backwards, and up next are the red-hot in Week 2.CBS Senior Fantasy Editor on how fantasy football owners should treat the Redskins' running back situation. "Guice is worth stashing on your bench as he recovers, but this is an ominous start after he mi sed his entire rookie season recovering from a torn ACL in the other knee," Towers said. "This news should bring Adrian Peterson back into Washington's plans, just days after Peterson was listed as inactive for the season opener. He should once again be the team's primary option in the running game, though as we saw in Week 1, pa s-catching back Chris Thompson will see plenty Dylan Bundy Jersey of work, too. Neither is a must-start Fantasy option by any means, though Thompson could be a low-end No. 2 or flex option in PPR formats."Peterson can help them weather the coming storm, but he's going to need help in battening down the hatches.
