Josh Norman (ribs) returns to practice Thursday for Washington

Washington Redskins defensive back Josh Norman (ribs) took part in individual drills at Thursday's practice.

What It Means:

Norman had been out since breaking a rib on October 2. If he plays in Week 7, Norman will likely primarily be responsible for Alshon Jeffery in Sunday's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Washington enters Week 7 ranked 12th in schedule-adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play. numberFire's models project Norman to record 41.3 tackles with 2.2 interceptions, 7.3 pass deflections, 0.6 fumbles forced, 0.2 fumbles recovered, and 0.34 touchdowns over the remainder of the year.
