New 4 - Legged Addition to the Horton Family

NEW 4-LEGGED ADDITION TO THE HORTON FAMILY
With the long and arduous rehab process ahead, Chris could use some support in his corner. Kobe to the rescue! No, not that Kobe…
Chris recently got a new puppy, a fuzzy little Rottweiler he named Kobe.

Chris is very proud of his mini-predator.

PREDATOR SHEDS THE DREADS

It’s a transitional time for Chris, and part of that transition came in the form of a haircut a couple weeks ago. That’s right, Predator fans. Chris’s signature dreads hit the floor recently, and he had this to say about it:

“Well it's been a long time coming for the hair. Every year I tell myself I would cut it but never followed through. But when the season started this year, I told myself I would cut it at the end of the season. Well my season ended early, so I cut it. Just wanted some change.”

With the change this time of transition has become a time of transformation for the Predator. What will this mean for Chris going forward? Only time will tell, but fans can be assured that when the Predator returns to the gridiron, healthy and with his new look, his ball-hawking hunter mentality is unlikely to change.
Chris also went on to say that he is “really loving the new look now.”

HORTON ON THE IR

The Redskins placed Chris on Injured Reserve last week, cutting short what was shaping up to be a promising season for the Predator, his third in the NFL. Injured Reserve (IR) is a list of players who have been sidelined for the season due to an injury. Teams will place a player on the IR when they wish to keep him on the team without having to replace him to fill his spot on the depth chart. NFL teams are allowed 53 spots on the active roster.

The loss of Chris comes as a big blow to the Redskins’ secondary, for a team that’s ranked 31st in the league in passing yards allowed per game. Every man is valuable at this crucial point of the season, and losing a good talent like Chris to injury is never good. Chris will now focus on rehabilitating his injury in order to come back strong and healthy next year, and help the Redskins achieve their ultimate goal of winning a championship.

Predator's Way

This time last year things where much different for Chris and the Redskins but what a difference a year can make. The Redskins of late have been playing some of their best football, especially on the defensive side of the ball. In the NFC East you can't sit back and relax because next week everything could change. So look for Chris and the Redskins to keep preparing for every game as if it was their last and to keep fighting in order to make their mark in the NFL.
