Arizona trading Hightower to Redskins (1 Viewer)

Redskins coach Mike Shanahan specifically characterized Tim Hightower as a "third-down back" when describing the running back's skill set Monday."He can run, he can pass protect," Shanahan said. "He’s a third-down back." Projected starter Ryan Torain is awful in the passing game all-around, which is an area in which Hightower excels. Hightower likely won't be given serious consideration for the starting job barring injuries to Torain and rookie Roy Helu.Source: Washington Post
Well, that settles that....for at least the next 24 hours, by which time Shanny will have made Hightower the starter, reshuffled the depth chart, and signed two more RBs.
 
Torain injured his wrist and might be out 2 weeks. That should lead to one preseason start for Hightower, and possible two starts.
