able to see their hard work pay off with a win last week. I

ASHBURN, Va. --?Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed reached this same point a week ago as a limited participant in practice. But he then missed two more days when his concussion symptoms returned.Reed is confident this time is different.Im feeling 100 percent, Reed said. I feel symptom-free.I feel back to normal.That would be good news for the Redskins as they prepare to play the Cincinnati Bengals in London on Sunday. Reed is among a handful of key players with an injury question. Corner Josh Norman was limited in practice because of his concussion. Like Reed, he must be cleared by an independent doctor before the Redskins depart Thursday night.Every day is different for these guys with concussions, Redskins coach Jay Gruden said. The goal is to work them a little more every day, and if they handle it, then theres a chance hes cleared. If symptoms return, theres a chance he wont.Left tackle Trent Williams was limited with a hyperextended knee. Though he still walked with a limp, Williams remained confident he would play Sunday.Running back Matt Jones was a new addition to the list of injured players. The Redskins starting back felt pain in his knee when he tried to cut. Gruden said he was OK when running straight ahead. If Jones cant play, Gruden said rookie?Robert Kelley?would be the starter but that third-down back Chris Thompson would remain a key part of the game plan.Reed has missed the past two games after suffering his fifth diagnosed concussion; he has admitted hiding others in the past.The Redskins have still moved the ball in his absence, with 910 yards combined in his two missed games. But Reed is a dangerous receiving threat for quarterback Kirk Cousins and still leads Washington with 33 catches, despite missing the two games. Vernon Davis has helped with eight catches for 129 yards and a touchdown in Reeds absence.Reed missed two games with a concussion last season and the final four games of 2013, his rookie season, with another one. In 2013, he also said he suffered a concussion earlier in the year but did not tell the coaches.But because he has dealt with this injury in the past, Reed knew what to expect now. When he didnt feel right last week, he told the doctors, and they shut him down.When Ive had concussions in the past, sometimes it takes a little longer, Reed said. I was just staying patient and staying prayed up and getting ready for [symptoms] to go away.As for Williams, he could barely walk after Sundays loss in Detroit, needing the wall to steady his gait. But he joined his offensive line teammates for individual work on Wednesday, still limping a little. An MRI on Monday revealed no structural damage to his left knee.A sprain, I can get through that, Williams said. Bruises, I can get through that. As long as the doctor tells me theres nothing structurally wrong, Ill do whatever I have to do to get on the field. Cheap Nike Shoes Australia Free Shipping .

AMES, Iowa -- On paper, a trip to Iowa State would seem to be exactly what Texas Tech needs to get its wobbly season on track.In reality, playing the Cyclones on the road might not be that easy.Texas Tech (4-6, 2-5 Big 12) has lost five of its last six games, including a heartbreaker to Oklahoma State last week, and needs to win out to earn a bowl bid.But while Iowa State (2-8, 1-6) has also struggled in the Big 12, the matchups and the weather could give the Cyclones an edge.Iowa State rediscovered its running game in last weeks 31-24 win over the Jayhawks, rushing for a season-high 234 yards, and the Red Raiders have the worst rush defense in the league.Texas Tech also leans as much on its passing game as any team in the country, leading the Big 12 with 580 yards a game despite ranking last with just 105 of those on the ground.The reasons that might be such a big deal?The forecast for Saturday doesnt look promising, with temperatures in the low 40s and winds gusting up to 30 mph.Youve got to be ready to play wherever they place the ball down at whatever time. Youve got to be kind of trained for whatever. And whatever we end up, whatever the weather ends up doing, be ready to compete, Texas Techs Luke Stice said.Here are some of the main keys to follow as Tech looks to stay in the postseason picture:MAHOMES VS. THE CLONESTexas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes has thrown for 4,247 yards, far and away tops in the nation. But Iowa State ranks second in the Big 12 in passing defense, although to be fair part of that is because its also allowing 5.1 yards per carry. Still, only Baylor and Oklahoma have fewer yards per completion than the Cyclones in the league. When you look at their reecord its not indicative of how good a team they are.ddddddddddddI think you look at the scores, theyve had teams beat and lost some close, tough games, Red Raiders coach Kliff Kingsbury said.IOWA STATES IMPROVEMENTChanging Iowa States culture has always been more of an emphasis in 2016 than winning and losing for first-year coach Matt Campbell. But after dropping four Big 12 games by 10 points or fewer, the Cyclones were finally able to see their hard work pay off with a win last week. I still dont think weve played 60 minutes of our best football, Campbell said. I know its never going to be perfect. But there are things we can continue to control and continue to get better at, and we need too.HARGERS MOMENTFifth-year senior Mitchell Harger, a walk-on, unexpectedly spent a series as Iowa States lead back and rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown on eight carries. Itll likely be the highlight of Hargers career after five years spent largely in the background. Just to have that moment, the touchdown...Id do it a million times over again, Harger said.THE SERIESIowa State and Texas Tech became new rivals when the Big 12 formed two decades ago. Its been a relatively lopsided series, with the Red Raiders coming out on top in 11 of 14 meetings. But the Cyclones beat Tech and Kingsbury, then the Red Raiders quarterback, 31-17 in 2002.HE SAID ITYou want to get to a bowl game. You dont want these two weeks to be your last two weeks of the season. I mean, we went through a lot together on this team, Mahomes said.---More college football at www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
