Redskins’ Zorn ‘Excited’ About Jason Campbell’s Hamstring Injury
Filed under: Redskins, NFC East, NFL Injuries, Washington, DC
It is a bit uncommon when a head coach is actually pleased when he starting quarterback gets injured. Well, that just occurred in Washington as new coach Jim Zorn isn’t too bummed about QB Jason Campbell tweaking his hamstring during practice.
“He was feeling his hamstrings all along, and I think it was because I’ve him sinking down a tiny bit,” Zorn stated. “It’s the change. I was kind of excited about it. Not that I wanted him to tweak his hamstring, just the fact that different things are happening to his body. He’s going to be fine.”
Zorn was a quarterbacks coach (uh, and a quarterback) so I’m sure he sees the bumps and bruises as a sign of Campbell following his direction. One of the most important keys in the 2008 season for the Skins is how Campbell performs in the new West Coast Offense.
However, it isn’t encouraging to see the Redskins’ skill players dropping like flies. Campbell’s hammy will injured his development in the new offense. Running back Clinton Portis injured his hip in a race against LaRon Landry; Antwaan Randle El had surgery to remove some cartilage from his knee.
