Just one day after being hurt during Monday’s night’s 45-12 loss to the New York Giants, the Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell wore back his Redskins jersey and returned to practice with his teammate on Tuesday.
Campbell was hurt when he was sacked from behind by Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora with 45 seconds remaining in the first half. Backup quarterback Todd Collins finished the half, but Campbell returned after the break, seeming that the injury was not serious enough to stop him passing ball.
Campbell was 2 for 7 for 10 yards when he was injured, with his first pass a 46-yard completion to Santana Moss. The Redskins trailed 24-0 at the time and had only one first down, but they soon lost the lead with two more players leaving the field because of injuries: right tackle Stephon Heyer left in the first half with a knee injury, and receiver Devin Thomas sprained his ankle early in the third quarter.

Redskins CB Hall plans to file complaint against old team Falcons
The Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said that he planned to file a complaint with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell against the Atlanta Falcons coach and assistant.
Hall said that Falcons Coach Mike Smith cursed at him and Falcons director of athletic performance Jeff Fish and others “put their hands on me” during a sideline melee Sunday. The original cause was Hall’s teammate LaRon Landry’s hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. Hall tried to pull Landry away from the Falcons’ sideline but was surrounded by Falcons players and staff members along with Landry.
Some other Redskins players also joined in the melee, but Hall became the focus because he was formerly a player wearing the Falcons jersey. He had talked all week of being bitter at the way he was treated when traded after playing in Atlanta for four years and made the Pro Bowl twice.
Hall said the tried to get away from Fish and others but Smith came over to him and talked expletive to him. He would take his complaints to the league.

Redskins plan to take off play-calling duties from Coach Zorn
After Sunday’s 14-6 loss to the previously winless Kansas City Chiefs, the front office of the Washington Redskins finally made their decision to take off play-calling duties from head coach Jim Zorn.
According to Redskins spokesman Zack Bolno, front office chief Vinny Cerrato and Zorn discussed the change during a 1-on-1 meeting after Sunday’s loss and Cerrato told Zorn he believes the coach had too many responsibilities and someone else should run the offense during games. A new play caller would be announced on Monday.
The Redskins (2-4) are averaging 13.2 points this season and Zorn seemed to be irritated in his postgame news conference. He refused to answer questions on whether he is concerned about his future.
