The Washington Redskins' improved pass rush took a hit on Wednesday.
It's feared that outside linebacker Junior Galette sustained a torn Achilles, FOX Sports 1 NFL insider Mike Garafolo confirmed. ESPN's Dianna Russini first reported the initial developments.
"I'm very concerned," head coach Jay Gruden said, via the team's Twitter account.
Galette, who was signed on a one-year deal this offseason after being unceremoniously cut by the New Orleans Saints, is entering his sixth season in the NFL.
Galette, 27, had 10 sacks in New Orleans last season.
