ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed is being evaluated for a concussion, an injury that puts his status for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles in doubt.

"He's done some great things early in the season already so far for us," wide receiver DeSean Jackson said. "Hopefully it's not too serious. Hopefully it's just protocol and hopefully we'll have him for Sunday because we definitely need him and he definitely is a big part of what we do. Hopefully he'll be all right and ready to go."
Linebacker Su'a Cravens was a limited participant in practice Wednesday after he missed the Redskins' game at Baltimore with a concussion. Gruden said Cravens got eyeglasses to help in his rehabilitation and left practice early to see a doctor,cheap jerseys from china.
