Redskins Sign RB Ryan Grant/Place Roy Helu Jr. on IR

This has to be the most injured (injury-prone) team in the league. I don't recall it ever being this bad before.

the Giants situation is pretty messed up this year; arguably worse off than ours.

Wonder if that's true -- injuries are all over the league, and I'd expect us to be no different in numbers of injuries than other teams. Anyone have stats on the injuries to our team (starters) vs. other teams in the league over the past few years?

And if we do get more injuries, here are a couple of questions to ponder:
1) Is our training staff to blame?
2) Is our scouting dept to blame for drafting / obtaining injury-prone players?
3) Is our scheme to blame for using strategies that lead to injuries? Chop-blocks, option plays, blitzes, etc.
4) Do we have a generous injury clause here in contracts that promotes risky behaviors?
5) etc
