Redskins WR Hall tears Achilles, out for season

Washington Redskins wide receiver Emanuel Hall will miss the upcoming season after sustained a torn Achilles last month. Hall announced the news Friday on Instagram.

"So for those that don't know, about a month ago while running routes and getting ready for training camp, I tore my Achilles," the 23-year-old Hall wrote. "I have never second guessed what I want for my life. I fell in love with this game at 7 years old and have been obsessed every since. One thing I have learned in the past two years is that perception is everything. If you have your mind right, it will always take your life from point A to point B. "Even though this is a major setback, I'm going to bounce back. I'm determined."

Hall, who has yet to appear in a regular-season game, joined the Redskins' practice squad in December after previous sessions with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hall went undrafted in 2019 after recording 97 receptions for 2,016 yards and 16 touchdowns in four seasons with Missouri (2015-18).
