A pre-game snafu has apparently influenced the Washington Redskins' inactive list Sunday as they prepare to battle the Buccaneers in Tampa.

S Brandon Meriweather, who hasn't played this year since suffering a preseason knee injury but was set to debut today, and WR Aldrick Robinson collided in warmups and ended up in the locker room.

Per The Washington Times, Meriweather's left knee (the injured one) hit Robinson in the head when both players were in the end zone. Robinson was not wearing his helmet.

Both players were declared inactive around 3 p.m. ET.

Robinson has seven catches for 104 yards and a TD this season.

Newly signed Redskins RB Ryan Grant will not suit today, either.
