Redskins 2012: Key O-lineman expected to return

Kory Lichtensteiger recently said he expects to return to Washington for the 2012-13 seasons. “I definitely want to come back,” he said. “I don’t know exactly what is going to happen, but I expect to be around.” The starting left guard tore his ACL and MCL in a game against the Eagles last season, starting the disatouros shift of players on the ‘Skins line. They suffered greatly for the rest of the season, due most to the constant changing positions. Lichtensteiger should be ready to go for mini-camps this summer, but there lies a question.

Will the Redskins start a guy coming off a huge injury?

With the talent he has, you would think yes, but back-up Maurice Hurt finally seemed to be fitting in well at the end of the season. Also, there are many linemen that will be on the free agent market this year, so expect a lot of competition and drama to occur around this position. It may sound strange Redskins fans, but quarterback isn’t our only issue. So let’s hope the staff realizes that also, and gets this thing figured out.
