Robert Griffin III could have a rookie protecting him Sunday if Kory Lichtensteiger (ankle) is unable to heal in time.
Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan announced Friday that guard Kory Lichtensteiger (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's wild card matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
Lichtensteiger did not participate in practice all week after leaving last Sunday's 28-18 victory over the Dallas Cowboys with a sprained left ankle. If Lichtensteiger is unable to go, third round rookie Josh LeRibeus is expected to make his first NFL start at left guard.
The only other Redskins player besides Lichtensteiger to be listed as questionable was S DeJon Gomes. Gomes was able to get in three limited practices this week though so he does seem to be on the good side of that 50-50 prognosis.
Beyond that, Washington had 13 players listed a probable: LB Lorenzo Alexander (shoulder), DE Stephen Bowen (biceps), QB Kirk Cousins (illness), LB London Fletcher (ankle), WR Pierrer Garcon (foot), QB Robert Griffin III (knee), CB DeAngelo Hall (elbow), LB Ryan Kerrigan (ankle), C/G Will Montgomery (knee), WR Josh Morgan (hand/foot), SS Jordan Pugh (ankle), P Sav Rocca (knee) and S Madieu Williams (elbow).
As for the Seahawks, only two players appeared on their injury report and both were assigned a probable tag: CB Jeremy Lane (knee) and RB Marshawn Lynch (back).
