http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/Starting wide receiver Antwaan Randle El underwent arthroscopic knee surgery yesterday and is expected to return for the Washington Redskins' second session of organized team activities that start in June, Coach Jim Zorn said.
Randle El, who sat out the start of OTAs on Monday because of his knee injury, had what Zorn described as a "fairly minor" procedure to remove floating cartilage in his knee. If there are no complications from the surgery, Randle El should be fully recovered in a few weeks, Zorn said.
The last of this week's three OTAs, which are closed to the public, is scheduled today at Redskins Park. The OTAs, of which there are 11 scheduled, resume June 2. Randle El could take part in the final eight.
"He'll be here for the next set of OTAs," said Zorn, who did not mention Randle El's upcoming surgery in his daily meeting with reporters Monday.
"This should be a three- to four-week deal, I think. I haven't heard any report. This is just what the preliminary thoughts were when they went it."
