quotemokc Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 "Brian Orakpo's season has come crashing to a close.NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday that the Washington Redskins pass-rusher is out for the rest of 2014 with the pectoral injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Tennessee Titans, per a source informed of the situation. The team is planning to place him on injured reserve. It's a crushing blow for Orakpo, who has suffered two torn pectoral muscles on his left side in the past. This time, the outside linebacker tore his right pectoral, cutting off a campaign that saw him notch just half a sack over seven starts.Making $11.455 million under the franchise tag, Orakpo's run with the team might be over. Washington's 2009 first-round draft pick has 40 sacks over 71 starts and was seen as a key contributor this season, but he isn't the team's only priority.With productive pass-rusher Ryan Kerrigan set to become a free agent after next season, theRedskins might choose to allocate their big money in that direction while developing rookie Trent Murphy.Still just 28 years old, Orakpo is a Pro Bowl-pedigree player with an NFL future; we just expect it to unfold somewhere outside our nation's capital."Could we still be a chance of going for him next year?

Francis York Morgan Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Since he was recently injured, yeah, it's super likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
