The Facts: The oft-injured Doctson is dealing with a shoulder injury. He also has a heel problem, but it’s not as problematic, or graphic, as reported. On Saturday, HC Jay Gruden disputed a report that Doctson will have his heel drained. “I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a heel being drained,” Gruden said.

The coach continued: “So I don’t know where that came from. That is not true, but he’s going to do a little something out here today. We’ll see. I’d be surprised if he went full-go, but he did not have his heel drained. He just got it stepped on. No, he’s fine. ... Who reported that by the way?” Gruden was informed that former Redskin Brian Mitchell reported on the heel draining. “Did he?” Gruden said. “Oh, I got to give him a hard time on that one. ...” Doctson appeared in all 16 games last year, but he appeared in only two games as a rookie. We'll continue to watch for more.
