Sun, 28 Apr 2013 13:48:26 -0700 New York Giants RBs Da'Rel Scott, Ryan Torain and Michael Cox are expected to compete for the No. 3 running back job during offseason workouts and training camp.
Thu, 21 Mar 2013 10:28:59 -0700 New York Giants RB David Wilson said he does not expect the starting running back job to be handed to him and is ready to compete with the other running backs on the roster for the job. RBs Andre Brown, Ryan Torain and Da'Rel Scott are also expected to compete to playing time. Fantasy Tip: Wilson is the clear favorite to win the starting job and would be a starter each week if he does win the job. Brown is considered the favorite for the No. 2 RB job and could be a complementary back to Wilson. The roles for Torain and Scott are not known at this point, so their value is not easy to determine.

Tue, 27 Dec 2011 19:17:55 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan explained the decision to released RB Ryan Torain Tuesday, Dec. 27. "What you look for is consistency at every position," Shanahan said. "The people that are consistent get more opportunities. If you're not consistent, you don't get as many opportunities to show us what you can do. But you mentioned Ryan had a big game - that was one of the reasons he's had a chance to get some reps. I think (RB Roy Helu Jr.) has taken advantage of those opportunities more than Ryan has. (RB Evan Royster) obviously this week against a pretty good defensive front - took advantage of an opportunity."
Tue, 27 Dec 2011 13:27:33 -0800 The Washington Redskins released RB Ryan Torain Tuesday, Dec. 27, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The team promoted WR Aldrick Robinson from the practice squad in a corresponding move.
Mon, 26 Dec 2011 23:05:12 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said Monday, Dec. 26, that he doesn't know why RB Ryan Torain has struggled so much this season, but he added RBs Roy Helu Jr. and Evan Royster have taken advantage of their opportunities more than Torain has.
Fri, 23 Dec 2011 10:07:06 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (knee, toe) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 23, and is listed as questionable for Week 16. If he is not able to play, RB Evan Royster or RB Ryan Torain would start in his place.

Thu, 15 Dec 2011 05:41:29 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain's time with the team is nearing an end. He was inactive last week and did not play in the previous two games. Torain misses too many holes and is only adequate on passing downs.
Sun, 11 Dec 2011 08:44:57 -0800 The Washington Redskins have declared DL Chris Baker, C Erik Cook, DL Kentwan Balmer, FS LaRon Landry, LB Markus White, RB Ryan Torain, WR Terrence Austin inactive for Week 14.
Tue, 22 Nov 2011 12:41:58 -0800 The Washington Redskins have been reluctant to start RB Roy Helu Jr. over RB Ryan Torain, despite the fact that Torain has just 71 yards in the last six games, compared to Helu's 122. "I like Helu. He's doing some great things," head coach Mike Shanahan said. "I don't want to put too much pressure on him too early. He's not ready for that. But he's gaining experience, and I like what I see." Torain started in Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys, but Helu and RB Tashard Choice saw plenty of work. Shanahan isn't tipping his hand as to which running back will start in Week 12, but the team has started to roll with veteran players in the starting lineup recently. Shanahan doesn't want to rush Helu, but Torain isn't making the most of his opportunities to start games as the leading back.
Sun, 06 Nov 2011 08:38:56 -0800 Washington Redskins rookie RB Roy Helu Jr. is starting against the San Francisco 49ers during Week 9, he replaces RB Ryan Torain.
Tue, 01 Nov 2011 19:41:39 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain had a poor stat line in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills, posting 14 yards on eight carries. The lack of production can mostly be attributed to poor run blocking by the offensive line, as three or more defenders were on the Redskins side of the line on six of his eight rushing attempts.
Sun, 30 Oct 2011 19:03:52 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain carried eight times for just 14 yards in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. He also had a six-yard receptions. Torain did nothing about a Bills rush defense which entered play ranked 30th in the NFL, allowing 135.7 yards per game on the ground. RB Roy Helu Jr. didn't have any carries, and he ended up with 20 yards on three receptions.
Sun, 30 Oct 2011 11:48:32 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain is starting at running back in Week 8.
Sun, 23 Oct 2011 20:02:23 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain is the likely starter heading into Week 8 following the injury to RB Tim Hightower (knee) in Week 7.
Sat, 22 Oct 2011 09:30:14 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain is expected to see a majority of the carries in Week 7 with RBs Tim Hightower and Roy Helu Jr. also getting carries.
Wed, 19 Oct 2011 09:15:44 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain was able to gain 26 yards after first contact in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles but was only able to gain 22 total yards in the game.
Sun, 16 Oct 2011 15:59:35 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain posted just 22 rushing yards on 10 carries in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Luckily, RB Roy Helu Jr. did little also, running for just six yards on two carries. Next week, the Redskins face the leaky Carolina Panthers rush defense, but it remains to be seen whether Helu Jr., Torain or RB Tim Hightower (shoulder) will get the nod.
Sun, 16 Oct 2011 09:59:13 -0700 Contrary to previous reports, Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain will start in Week 6, with Roy Helu Jr. as the backup ahead of Tim Hightower. Washington will ride the hot backfield hand. Fantasy Tip: Regardless of what has been reported, Torain is the best fantasy play in this backfield. His power style is a mismatch for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Sun, 16 Oct 2011 08:44:32 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Tim Hightower (shoulder) is active and will be the team's starting running back against the Philadelphia Eagles during Week 6. Fantasy Tip: Mike Shanahan continues to play games with fantasy football players. We still anticipate Ryan Torain playing a large role today against the Eagles. Hightower may only be starting in name, but this just continues to show how volatile the Washington backfield is. Use caution.
Sat, 15 Oct 2011 05:46:24 -0700 There continues to be no indication from the Washington Redskins who will start at running back between RBs Tim Hightower and Ryan Torain for the team's Week 6 game. The best guess is that both will play a lot. Torain offers more power runs while Hightower is better in the screen game.
Wed, 12 Oct 2011 19:17:06 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan declined to name a starting running back for the Week 6 game against the Philadelphia Eagles, although he sounded like he might be leaning toward RB Ryan Torain. "Nice to have (Torain) back at full speed. Everyone saw what he did against the Rams," Shanahan said. "Hopefully he can stay at that level."
Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:04:20 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan declined to name a starting running back for the Week 6 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. "I'm going to play the best players and we'll see how these guys do," Shanahan said. "They have some great competition. As I said before, we have three backs (RBs Roy Helu Jr., Tim Hightower and Ryan Torain) that I really believe in." Shanahan said they'll see how practice goes and make a decision later this week.
Mon, 10 Oct 2011 13:01:51 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain said the coaches will determine if he will start in Week 6 but will be ready to handle the job if given the opportunity.
Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:18:14 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Tim Hightower said he is fine with competing with RBs Ryan Torain and Roy Helu Jr. for playing time because it will make him and the other running backs get better which will help the team.
Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:11:54 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he thought RB Tim Hightower looked sluggish during practice this week, which is why the team decided to put RB Ryan Torain into the game Week 4. Shanahan would not name a starter for Week 6 and said the best running back will be used.
Sun, 02 Oct 2011 15:28:22 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain rushed for 135 yards and one touchdown on 19 carries against the St. Louis Rams in Week 4.
Sat, 01 Oct 2011 06:12:02 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain has yet to receive a carry in three games this season; however, if RB Tim Hightower struggles in Week 4, don't be surprised if he gets some carries. Hightower is averaging just 3.5 yards on 59 carries. The Redskins also want to continue getting RB Roy Helu Jr. carries, too, because of his game-breaking ability.
Fri, 30 Sep 2011 21:14:13 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said Friday, Sept. 30, that he nearly benched RB Tim Hightower in favor of RB Ryan Torain in the Week 3 game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Sun, 11 Sep 2011 21:49:08 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain (hand) dressed for Week 1 against the New York Giants, but he did not get into the game. RB Roy Helu Jr. served as the primary backup to starter RB Tim Hightower.
