The Washington Redskins tight end Chris Cooley had ankle surgery on Wednesday, two days after he was injured in the first half of Monday’s 27-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. And the team said the player could return to action in a month.
Really great news- the team had originally feared that they would have to sideline the two-time Pro Bowl player for at least two months or place him on the season-ending injured reserve. That would be the biggest loss for the season to the Redskins. Now the loss has been reduced as Cooley is expected to miss only four weeks after the surgery.
But the four weeks’ missing is still Cooley’s longest time of being absent from game since he was put on the Redskins jersey after the third round in 2004. Before the injury, Cooley had 29 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns this season.
