Hawkins IR and Injury Settlement

[PennSkinsFan]

The Redskins placed cornerback Artrell Hawkins on the reserve/injured list, essentially releasing him in advance of an injury settlement. Vice President Vinny Cerrato said that the two sides have five days to work out a settlement. Hawkins hadn't practiced since the first week of training camp because of a hamstring injury. Before the injury, Hawkins -- who was expected to provide depth and contribute on special teams -- seemed to have an edge in the competition for fourth cornerback.

I think that puts our five CBs at Shawn Springs, Walt Harris, Carlos Rogers, Garnell Wilds, and Rufus Brown/Ade Jimoh (whichever plays better int he next two pre-season games)
