Bashaud Breeland

Bashaud Breeland (knee) expected to play for Washington Monday night

Washington Redskins defensive back Bashaud Breeland (knee) is "pushing to play" Monday against the Philadelphia Eagles, and will likely be active, reports NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

What It Means:

Per Garafolo, Breeland will likely play limited snaps on Monday night. With Josh Norman (ribs) out, Carson Wentz and the Eagles should be able to take advantage of Washington's banged-up secondary.

Breeland has 18 tackles (16 solo) and 4 pass deflections this season for a Washington secondary that entered Week 7 ranked 12th in schedule-adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play.
