Fri, 24 May 2013 12:00:02 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles', toe) did not participate in organized team activities Thursday, May 23. Helu did get some work in on the side as he rehabs from a toe injury. Fantasy Tip: It was thought that Helu would be a full go for organized team activities, so Helu should be ready to go as training camp gets closer.
Sun, 19 May 2013 18:32:41 -0700 The Washington Redskins have seven running backs on the roster right now, with only RB Alfred Morris guaranteed of a job in Washington this season. Based on the current roster, it appears RB Evan Royster will be battling Jawan Jamison, and RB Roy Helu Jr. will be battling Chris Thompson for the two running back spots behind Morris.
Sun, 19 May 2013 12:18:49 -0700 Washington Redskins RBs Roy Helu, Evan Royster, Chris Thompson and Jawan Jamison are expected to compete for two roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp. Helu and Thompson are expected to compete for one spot while Royster and Jamison are expected to compete for the other roster spot.
Thu, 16 May 2013 12:19:54 -0700 The Washington Redskins are hoping RB Roy Helu (toe) will be a full participant once organized team activities start next week. Head coach Mike Shanahan said Helu recently had a setback in his recovery from offseason toe surgery.
Fri, 03 May 2013 13:46:07 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Chris Thompson (knee) could start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list because he is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament and could start the season on the list if the injury is still a factor. Thompson is expected to compete with RB Roy Helu for the change-of-pace running back role if he is able to take part in camp.
Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:35:22 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said RB Roy Helu (toe) suffered a setback in his recovery from a toe injury.
Sat, 13 Apr 2013 10:48:32 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu could beat RB Evan Royster for the No. 2 running back job next season because of his speed and pass-catching ability.
Fri, 05 Apr 2013 14:23:54 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (foot) had surgery on Feb. 5, to correct a lingering foot issue. Helu said he expects to be back at full speed for the start of organized team activities. Fantasy Tip: It does not sound like this will be much of an issue for Helu in the fall, but monitor his status the rest of the off season and adjust your draft boards accordingly.
Mon, 07 Jan 2013 06:27:46 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (toe) said he is improving and expects to be ready for offseason workouts.
Wed, 26 Sep 2012 09:04:36 -0700 The Washington Redskins have placed RB Roy Helu (toe) on Injured Reserve.
Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:41:11 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Ryan Grant will add depth to the running back corps with RBs Evan Royster (knee, toe) and Roy Helu Jr. (toe) dealing with injuries. Royster is day-to-day with a strained patella tendon in his right knee, and he also aggravated a pre-existing turf toe injury. Helu is dealing with turf toe and had been limited with an injured Achilles' tendon in the preseason. Royster was limping around Monday, Sept. 24. Helu was wearing a walking boot following the team's Week 3 game, but he's listed as day-to-day, too.
Mon, 24 Sep 2012 18:07:01 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (turf toe) aggravated his turf toe injury in the Week 3 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. It is a pre-existing injury, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Sun, 16 Sep 2012 23:47:37 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Alfred Morris had 16 carries for a game-high 89 yards in Week 2 against the St. Louis Rams. RB Evan Royster had just one carry for four yards, and two catches for seven yards, while RB Roy Helu Jr. did not even have one carry, and he had one catch for no gain. Fantasy Tip: Morris appears to have a strangehold on the top tailback job, but that can change at the drop of the hat with head coach Mike Shanahan. Still, fantasy owners can feel confident using Morris as an RB2 or 'flex' play heading into Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals in a very favorable matchup.
Mon, 10 Sep 2012 12:18:03 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan confirmed that RB Alfred Morris is the starting running back. Shanahan also said that he still believes in RBs Roy Helu and Evan Royster.
Sun, 09 Sep 2012 16:32:31 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. carried just two times for two yards in Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints, and he added three receptions for 25 yards. RB Evan Royster carried just two times for 10 yards. Fantasy Tip: Helu and Royster were definitely overshadowed by RB Alfred Morris, who rumbled for 96 yards and two touchdowns. If you're an unfortunate fantasy owner who has Helu or Royster on a roster, don't panic just yet. Head coach Mike Shanahan is very fickle with his RBs. However, the explosion by Morris likely gives him the majority of the carries in Week 2 against the St. Louis Rams, so Helu and Royster should be benched until further notice.
Sun, 09 Sep 2012 07:53:52 -0700 Washington Redskins rookie RB Alfred Morris is expected to start during Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints. Morris was the team's most impressive back during the preseason. Fantasy Tip: Don't get too excited. Coach Mike Shanahan is no stranger to using a committee approach during the game. Even if Morris starts, that doesn't guarantee he will be given the majority of the touches. He, Roy Helu and Evan Royster are all RB3 material with plenty of risk.
Mon, 03 Sep 2012 18:13:38 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu is listed as the second running back on the team's Week 1 depth chart released Monday, Sept. 3.
Sat, 01 Sep 2012 18:10:22 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan indicated Saturday, Sept. 1, that he has settled on a starting running back for Week 1, but he is keeping it a secret. He said RBs Roy Helu Jr. and Evan Royster have made "tremendous progession" in pass protection, so the starter is believed to be one of the two. Fantasy Tip: Helu, Royster and undrafted rookie RB Alfred Morris are each expected to see touches in the opener against the New Orleans Saints. This type of secretive behavior by Shanahan gives fantasy owners fits. Look for Shanny to play the hot hand throughout the season, so be prepared to shuffle your lineup accordingly.
Wed, 29 Aug 2012 23:07:12 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles') carried 15 times for 90 yards and a pair of rushing touchdowns in the preseason finale Wednesday, Aug. 29, against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He also added a pair of receptions for 34 yards.
Mon, 27 Aug 2012 12:22:13 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said RBs Evan Royster, Roy Helu, Tim Hightower and Alfred Morris still have a chance to win the starting running back job.
Thu, 23 Aug 2012 10:37:35 -0700 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said RBs Roy Helu (Achilles') and Evan Royster (knee) will not play in the third preseason game Saturday, Aug. 25, because of injuries.
Wed, 22 Aug 2012 13:07:05 -0700 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said RB Roy Helu (Achilles') did not do much in practice Wednesday, Aug. 22. "He didn't do too much today. A little bit, but not a lot," Shanahan said. RB Tim Hightower (knee) practiced with the scout team and did more.
Wed, 22 Aug 2012 12:19:56 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles') said he was doing a lot better, and took part in practice Wednesday, Aug. 22. Helu said he was able to do everything.
Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:47:08 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles') is likely to miss the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 18, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Mon, 13 Aug 2012 14:56:10 -0700 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (Achilles') missed practice Monday, Aug. 13, with Achilles' tendonitis, according to head coach Mike Shanahan.
Mon, 13 Aug 2012 12:39:53 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu (undisclosed) missed practice Monday, Aug. 13.
Tue, 07 Aug 2012 17:38:18 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Evan Royster looked like the best back in the team's training camp last week, according to ESPN.com's Dan Graziano. People from the organization have given Graziano the impression that they believe Royster has a higher ceiling than RB Roy Helu, if each is healthy. They also think highly of rookie RB Alfred Morris, who isn't out of the mix, in part because health is their chief concern regarding both Royster and Helu. Fantasy Tip: In other words, don't read too much into who's starting in the first preseason contest. Fantasy players should file the reported opinions of Washington personnel in their memory banks, however.
Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:02:21 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu has stood out early in training camp. He has a better burst than the team's other backs competing for the starting running back duties.
Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:01:56 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Evan Royster is trying to take over the team's No. 1 running back duties. To win the starting job, he has to outperform RBs Roy Helu and Tim Hightower. "We're all trying to do that. So it's going to be tough," Royster said. "You can't tackle him," head coach Mike Shanahan said about Royster. "He makes people miss. He knows how to cut and he knows when to cut." Royster said he feels comfortable in the offense. He did note that the one thing he wants to improve on is his conditioning, as he felt he wasn't as prepared physically as he needed to be last season.
Wed, 25 Jul 2012 07:14:36 -0700 Washington Redskins coaches still have some questions about RB Roy Helu. Helu struggles to consistently pick up chunks of yardage, and the team would like to see him do more than just take what's there and be able to make something out of nothing. There also are questions about his durability. Injuries hampered Helu late last season and kept him out of most of offseason workouts. Head coach Mike Shanahan said the questions about Helu's durability will remain until he can prove otherwise.
Mon, 25 Jun 2012 12:49:25 -0700 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu could be limited to 10 to 15 carries a game this season because the team is concerned about his durability.

Fri, 30 Dec 2011 13:53:58 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (knee, toe) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 30. He is listed as questionable for Week 17 but is expected to play.
Thu, 29 Dec 2011 18:50:12 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (knee, toe) was limited during practice Thursday, Dec. 29.

Wed, 28 Dec 2011 10:45:01 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (knee, toe) said he fully expects to play Week 17 after sitting out Week 16 with knee and toe injuries. Helu said both injuries are feeling a lot better than they did last week.
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.
Mon, 26 Dec 2011 22:18:18 -0800 Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said Monday, Dec. 26, that RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe, knee) was worked out before the Week 16 game, but he was scratched because he couldn't push off without pain.
Sat, 24 Dec 2011 18:30:26 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Evan Royster carried 19 times for 132 yards in Week 16 against the Minnesota Vikings in place of the injured RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe). Royster also added two receptions for 15 yards.
Sat, 24 Dec 2011 08:50:09 -0800 The Washington Redskins have declared WR David Anderson, DL Doug Worthington, C Erik Cook, DL Kentwan Balmer, LB Markus White, TE Robert Myers, RB Roy Helu Jr. inactive for Week 16.
Sat, 24 Dec 2011 08:44:08 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe) is inactive for Week 16. Fantasy Tip: Evan Royster will start, and Ryan Torain will be active. Royster is the better fantasy football play since he has been in Mike Shanahan's favor as the backup, but would it really surprise anyone if Torain gets more touches? Royster is a decent flex play, but the Minnesota Vikings defense hasn't been kind to RBs; Torain is a last-ditch flex option as well for the even more desperate.
Fri, 23 Dec 2011 13:01:27 -0800 Updating a previous report, Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe) should be able to play in Week 16 despite being listed as questionable for the game.
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, 22 Dec 2011 16:25:28 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe, knee) said Thursday, Dec. 22, that he feels "really good." He has been receiving treatment from team doctors all week. "I've been saying the last month that he's really turned it on this last month," said offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. "He's gotten some confidence to him. Yeah, he hasn't been scared at all. He's tough."
Thu, 22 Dec 2011 12:40:15 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe, knee) was limited in practice Thursday, Dec. 22.
Wed, 21 Dec 2011 18:36:44 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe, knee) is optimistic he'll be ready to play in Week 16 against the Minnesota Vikings. He was limited in practice Wednesday, Dec. 21.
Wed, 21 Dec 2011 18:12:55 -0800 Washington Redskins RB Evan Royster might see more chances in Week 16 with RB Roy Helu Jr. (toe, knee) still feeling banged up.
