Washington DE Jason Hatcher is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucs. He returned for limited practices Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday with a knee injury. Hatcher's not worth waiting for in your IDP league. He has tallied just 5 total tackles an no sacks since a promising Week 1.

Washington DE Jason Hatcher is active for today's game against the Rams. He had been questionable with a knee issue but played through it last week. He should be fine to use in a positive matchup with the Rams.

Washington DE Jason Hatcher is active for today's game at Indy. He had been questionable after a knee injury limited his practice time this week.

Washington DE Jason Hatcher is expected to miss 4-6 weeks following surgery on his left knee.  A Tuesday MRI revealed the need for a "clean up" scope, according to ESPN's John Keim.  Hatcher had reported pain and swelling apparently caused by a cartilage issue.  The timeline should return him to the field well before the start of the regular season, but Hatcher is learning a new position after moving from Dallas' 4-3 "Tampa 2" scheme to Washington's primarily 3-4 front.  We'll see how he performs upon his return and figure out whether he can help your IDP squad in 2014.

Cowboys DT Jason Hatcher (stinger) returned to practice Friday, but Jerry Jones said his top lineman remains a game-time decision for Sunday night's clash with the Saints.  Hatcher remains unsure about his status and will have to wear a special neck brace if he does play.  The Sunday night kickoff makes it difficult to wait on him for your IDP lineup.  Even if he's active, we can't know what to expect from Hatcher as he deals with a stinger for the 1st time.  Look elsewhere for DL help this week.
