Galette tears Achilles again, lost for season

WASHINGTON — For the second straight year, Redskins linebacker Junior Galette will not play a meaningful snap.

The linebacker posted a video of himself working out with Trent Williams on Monday.  The video doesn’t show much, but the message says a lot.

Last year, a month after signing with the Redskins, Galette tore his left Achilles in practice and was lost for the year. He worked extremely hard to get back and prove himself. He signed a one-year deal with the Redskins this offseason and will now be lost for the season.

Training camp begins in Richmond on Thursday.
