Redskins injured LT Chris Samuels released a statement late Friday, confirming an earlier report by NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora that he has not made a decision on his future in the NFL.
“I will continue to seek medical advice,” Samuels said. “I hope to see where I am physically over the next couple months. At this time, I have not made a decision, but I love playing for the Redskins and hope to be back.”
Samuels is likely to be placed on injured reserve in the near future with a neck condition that could end his career, according to La Canfora. He did not play in last week’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs and is expected to miss at least several more months.
Samuels, 32, met with a specialist in California this week and will meet with another specialist next week, a source with knowledge of the situation told La Canfora.
