ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams had what coach Jay Gruden called “a minor” procedure on his knee and is expected to be able to play in the team’s next game.
Gruden said Monday that Williams was scheduled for the “bursa sac cleanup” during the bye week and should return for Washington’s game at the New Orleans Saints on Oct. 8.
The knee has been “irritating” Williams for a couple of weeks, Gruden said.
