East Rutherford, NJ (Sports Network) - Washington Redskins tight end Fred
Davis will miss the rest of the season after tearing his left Achilles tendon
in the first quarter of Sunday's 27-23 loss to the New York Giants.
Davis was running a route in the end zone when he tried to make a cut and
immediately fell to the ground. He limped his way to the sidelines before
being carted to the locker room to have his left leg examined.
"Achilles...right now it's a tear," Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan
confirmed after the game. "He'll be out for the year."
The fifth-year pro entered play on Sunday with a team-high 312 receiving yards
on 23 catches.
