The Facts: Kelly, vying for the No. 2 WR position, recently suffered a hamstring injury and might sit out practice Thursday. The injury occurred while Kelly participated in quarterback Donovan McNabb's "Hell Week" that began July 19. McNabb, as he did during his time with the Eagles, invited some of his new teammates to his Phoenix-area home for a week of grueling workouts and team building. Wideouts Devin Thomas, Santana Moss and Kelly were among those expected to participate.
Diehards Line:According to Post staffer Jason Reid, Kelly experienced tightness in his hamstring during one of the workouts. He immediately contacted the Redskins' medical/training staff for guidance. The Redskins plan to proceed cautiously with Kelly, who worked hard to overcome knee problems and microfracture surgery after his rookie season. Although the injury is not considered serious, the team would rather have Kelly rest and receive treatment than try to participate in the early stages of camp. Hamstring injuries can linger, especially when players rush back before they are completely healed.
