This week will again be a scramble at cornerback for the Washington Redskins.

Tracy Porter (hamstring) is out for the Monday night game against the Seattle Seahawks. Porter made his season debut when the Redskins played the New York Giants Oct. 6. He started the second half in place of rookie Bashaud Breeland, whom the Giants successfully went after.

But, he was sore following the game and did not heal during the long break since.

Without DeAngelo Hall, who is out for the season, the Redskins will rely on second-year cornerback David Amerson, Breeland and the Richard Crawford, who was signed Sept. 29 after being cut earlier in the season.

Tight end Jordan Reed (hamstring) did not practice Saturday. He will be evaluated Sunday after a full day off. He has participated lightly in practice this week after injuring his hamstring just seven snaps into the season opener at Houston.

“We’ll see him tomorrow,” coach Jay Gruden said. “Today we didn’t want anything worse to happen, so we’re going to take a look at him tomorrow, do a nice workout and go from there.

“He’s been running, but full speed I can’t tell. I haven’t seen him run in a long time. I don’t know what his full speed is right now. That’s what we’re going to look at tomorrow and see what he can do, let him stretch it out a little bit and if he doesn’t feel like he can run full speed then obviously we’ll hold him out. But we’ll take a look at him tomorrow. It’s 50/50 – that’s what questionable is.”

Tight end Niles Paul (concussion) participated fully in practice and should be ready for Monday.

Safety Trenton Robinson (ankle) is questionable to play, as is defensive end Kedric Golston (groin). Linebacker Akeem Jordan (knee) and guard Shawn Lauvao (knee) should also be ready to play after full practices Saturday.

Left tackle Trent Williams (knee) was limited in Saturday’s practice. He’s questionable for the game. Defensive lineman Chris Baker (shoulder) and defensive end Jason Hatcher (hamstring) are probable.
