Redskins’ Hall tears Achilles again

Published

Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall tore his Achilles tendon for the second time in five weeks and will have to redo the same surgery, according to reports Friday.

The Washington Post reported that Hall had surgery to repair the tendon on Thursday.

Hall suffered the initial injury against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 21 that ended his season. Hall, who is in his 11th season, then re-injured himself at home, according to the newspaper.

The recovery following the second surgery remains unclear, but it could take another six to nine months for him to recover.

Hall, 30, had re-signed with Washington in the offseason, agreeing to a four-year, $17 million deal with $5.65 million guaranteed. He is signed through 2017 and will count $4.8 million against the salary cap next year.

Rookie cornerback Bashaud Breeland, who has 26 tackles this season, has replaced Hall in Washington’s lineup.
