Redskins running back Roy Helu backed up Alfred Morris and did a nice job late in a game that saw Washington come back from 33-7 down for a 33-27 loss.

Helu saw just one carry in the Week 1 Monday night in Washington, but had an important catch for the Redskins during the comeback. Helu rushed for 5 yards and his lone grab went for 11. He saw two targets in the passing game from quarterback Robert Griffin III.

Helu will once again be nothing more than a seldom-used backup RB to Morris when the Redskins take the field Week 2 at Green Bay.
