Redskins cornerback Cedric Griffin will miss 2nd straight game with hamstring injury

Washington Redskins nickel cornerback Cedric Griffin will sit out Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Griffin did not practice all week and will miss his second consecutive game with a hamstring injury.

Coach Mike Shanahan said Friday that running back Evan Royster is questionable with a sprained right knee.

Cornerback DeAngelo Hall missed Friday's practice with the flu, but he is listed as probable.

Safety Brandon Meriweather had already been ruled out after re-injuring his left knee in a pregame collision last week with receiver Aldrick Robinson.

The collision left Robinson with a concussion, but he has been cleared to play.
