Redskins running back Silas Redd will miss the 2015 season with a knee injury, coach Jay Gruden announced on Saturday. 

Redd suffered a torn MCL and ACL in his right knee in Friday's reseason game. 

"It's very unfortunate for Silas," Gruden said. "He was having a good camp and making good progress."

Tests on the right knee of Redskins running back Silas Redd confirmed that he tore the ACL and MCL in the knee, according to the Washington Post.

Redd suffered the injury while getting tackled during Thursday's preseason game against the Browns.

Backup running back Silas Redd potentially suffered a torn ACL and MCL in the Redskins' preseason opener on Thursday, and could be lost for the season, per the Washington Post. 

Redd was injured on a running play in the third quarter of the team's win over the Browns, as his right leg was bent under him during a tackle. The Redskins are awaiting the results of an MRI on Redd's knee, the same one he injured during college. 

Redskins running back Silas Redd has been carted off the field with a sprained right knee and is out for the rest of the game Thursday night in Cleveland, per ESPN.

Redd hurt his leg on a carry in the third quarter.

Cardinals running back Andre Ellington, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury during training camp, is nearing "full speed," according to coach Bruce Arians, and may be available to play during Saturday's preseason opener. 

Ellington has missed several practices, and the Cardinals running game is in such a flux that the team reportedly offered free-agent back Chris Johnson a contract. 

After a pair of disappointing, injury-filled seasons, Buccaneers running back Doug Martin said he is fully healthy and ready to produce once again, per the Tampa Bay Times. 

Martin has rushed for 950 yards over the last two seasons after a breakout rookie campaign in which he rumbled for 1,454 yards in 2012. Heading into this year, Martin is focused on staying healthy and on the field. 

"I've got to take care of my body. If I take care of my body and stay in my playbook, I'll be just fine," he said. "Sky's the limit this year. A lot of potential going into this year with this team."

Cowboys running back Joseph Randle returned to practice on Tuesday, a day after suffering a strained oblique. 

Randle participated in individual position drills but not the team portion, per the Dallas Morning News. 

"I feel great," Randle said, although he wasn't sure if he'd play in the preseason opener. 

"I would love to play but that's not up to me,'' Randle said. "That's the coaching staff's job to do that kind of stuff, so we'll let them do their job.''

Cowboys running back Joseph Randle was limited at Monday's practice due to an oblique strain, reports the NFL Network. He will be reevaluated Tuesday.

Randle is competing for the top running back spot on the team. He rushed for 343 yards on 51 attempts last season.

Browns running back Shaun Draughn suffered an injury to his thumb, according to Ohio.com.

Cleveland coach Mike Pettine said Draughn took a shot to his thumb, but that the thumb is not broken to his knowledge.

Broncos running back C.J. Anderson left the team's practice on Saturday after suffering a "shoulder bang," according to ESPN.com.

Coach Gary Kubiak said that Anderson wanted to return to practice after being evaluated, "but we just held him out the rest of the way."
