Tests confirmed season-ending injuries for two Redskins offensive linemen.

The team announced Monday that left guard Shawn Lauvao suffered a torn ACL and right guard Brandon Scherff a torn pectoral in Sunday’s loss to the Falcons.

Original post, at 6 p.m. Sunday:

Four of the five starters on the Redskins offensive line are injured.


If MRIs don’t come back favorably, a unit that was already patchwork could be decimated.

Left tackle Trent Williams dislocated his thumb last week, had surgery later in the week and will likely be out for about a month.

Left guard Shawn Lauvao exited Sunday’s game on a bull rush by Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarett.

By video, as Lauvao was off balance, and there is a possibility his misstep led to a left knee ACL tear.

Left guard Brandon Scherff later excited with a shoulder issue. The video was limited, but my worry there is for a torn pectoral tendon, which would mean surgery and the end of his season.

Right tackle Morgan Moses was rolled up on and, by video, suffered a MCL sprain. However, he returned with tape/brace. Best-case scenario is he will be hobbled for the next few weeks.

Unless the Redskins get lucky, this could be disastrous.


It is possible they will be without 80 percent of their offensive line starters next week, and both guards could be lost for the season.

An area of strength for NFC-East leading Washington may have turned into an area of weakness.
