ASHBURN, Va. -- Matt Jones will miss the rest of the preseason with a left shoulder injury, but the Washington Redskins hope their top running back will be ready for the start of the regular season.Coach Jay Gruden said Jones will be held out of the Redskins final two preseason games after spraining his shoulder Friday against the New York Jets. Gruden said Jones has already made significant strides since the injury and has high hopes hell be ready by the regular-season opener Sept. 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.We think the recovery time will be pretty quick, Gruden said Monday. He could be a little sore, but I think hes going to be fine.Jones ran for 490 yards and three touchdowns and caught another touchdown in 13 games as a rookie last season before going down with a hip injury. He became the Redskins No. 1 back after they let Alfred Morris leave for Dallas in free agency.The 23-year-old is getting stim treatments for blood flow and worked out on the sideline during practice Monday. He said he was feeling much better and isnt worried about missing out on game action.I dont feel like this is even a setback, because I take mental reps on the field, Jones said. It feels better knowing I did it in the preseason. Im not saying that preseason doesnt matter, I do want to still get better, but Ive got some time to get ready for the first game.Washington had little experience at the running back position even before Jones got hurt. He and third-down back Chris Thompson are the only players on the roster with NFL game experience, and the Redskins will lean heavily on rookies Robert Kelley and Keith Marshall and second-year player Mack Brown the rest of the preseason.Kelley replaced Jones as the top back against New York and could start Friday in the third preseason game against the Buffalo Bills.I think he and Keith will get the lions share of the carries, Gruden said. We want to see them in game situations against a good Buffalo team.Even if Jones is back by the opener, all eyes are on Kelley, an undrafted rookie out of Tulane, and Marshall, a seventh-round pick out of Georgia, to see what they can do. Teammates are impressed by their habits in practice, but Friday night at FedEx Field in the exhibition dress rehearsal for real games is a different animal.Im excited to see how they do, especially with a prime-time opportunity like theyre getting, said left tackle Trent Williams, whos set to make his preseason debut against the Bills after battling a sore right knee. We have a lot of faith in those backs. They show a lot of promise, theyve got a lot of talent, but obviously theyve got to put in the field on Friday and well have a better picture of it after that.Gruden has given no indication so far that Washington will look externally for running back depth, and Kelley, Marshall and Brown will get chances to keep it that way.Thats why were here, Kelley said. Thats why you have backups, for somebody to step up and take the place of that starter while hes down. When he gets back well be back doing our role on the team.Quarterback Kirk Cousins, who was held out of the Jets game to rest, recalled his own experience as a young player and hopes to help the young running backs Friday as they fill in for Jones.It stretches you as a player and its going to get you to where you need to be that much faster, Cousins said. I think its a really good thing for them. There may be some growing pains here and there, but thats what the preseason is for: to see what they can do, what they cant do.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Chicago Bulls Jerseys China .

INDIANAPOLIS -- Three days after taking 16 hits, Andrew Luck missed Wednesdays practice with a sore throwing shoulder.Luck said it was just sore, downplaying the obvious concern his absence will raise among fans. He said he hopes to return to practice Thursday and plans to play Sunday as the Colts try to avoid their first 0-3 start in five years, when San Diego comes to town.It was a physical game, like any football game, so the coaches and training staff thought it was best if I didnt go out on the field, he told reporters, acknowledging he didnt practice at all Wednesday.The Colts have already been hit hard by injuries, mostly on defense, but this could be the toughest one yet.Last season, Luck got hurt in September and wound up missing nine games with multiple injuries, including a lacerated kidney that kept him out of the last seven games. Even when Luck did play in 2015, he didnt look right, going 2-5 and throwing 15 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.The Colts responded by using four of their eight draft picks to revamp the offensive line, which so far has had mixed results.In a season-opening loss, the Colts offensive line allowed two sacks and five hits.In the Week 2 loss at Denver, Luck was sacked five times, threw an interception that was returned for one touchdown and lost a fumble that was returned for another.Luck didnt say when he was injured in tthe game, but at that pace, Luck would be sacked 56 times and take an additional 128 hits.ddddddddddddEarlier this year, Luck and coach Chuck Pagano said there was a plan to help Luck stay healthy this season, and that it could lead to Luck appearing on injury reports periodically. Hes already shown up three times as a limited participant this season.This absence was not by design.I dont raise the alarms, thats you guys, Luck said, drawing laughter from reporters. Ill come in tomorrow and defer to the coaches and training staff and well see.Luck said Wednesday is normally the day the Colts normally install the bulk of their game plan, but he said he didnt believe it would affect him much if he does play Sunday.Pagano did not talk about Lucks injury before practice and will not be available again until Friday. Indys offensive and defensive coordinators are scheduled to talk Thursday.If Luck cant play, the Colts would start Scott Tolzien -- the only other quarterback on their active roster. Tolzien made his only two starts in Green Bay when Aaron Rodgers was injured during the 2013 season. They also have Stephen Morris on the practice squad.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
