Evans, Kendall Would Like to Return to Washington
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28 -- Two of the Washington Redskins' starters will be eligible for unrestricted free agency in March, with guard Pete Kendall and defensive end Demetric Evans both saying they hope to be back with Washington after a season-ending 27-24 defeat to the San Francisco 49ers at Candlestick Park.
Evans, who moved ahead of former Pro Bowler Jason Taylor at left end and tied Taylor for second on the team with 3 1/2 sacks, said he is eager to re-sign. 'I want to be back,' Evans said. 'I hope they want me back.' Evans, 29, came to the Redskins as a free agent in 2004, and is very valuable, able to play every position along the line in a pinch.

Shooting Themselves in the Foot
CINCINNATI, Dec. 14 -- Santana Moss's 10-yard touchdown catch shortly before halftime was one of the few bright spots for the Washington Redskins in their humbling 20-13 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. His score removed the zero next to Washington's name on the scoreboard, ended a five-game skid during which he hadn't reached the end zone and seemed to breathe life into a listless sideline.
But as with so many other plays on Sunday, what seemed like a jolt of positive news was tempered by the sight of yellow fabric fluttering to the ground. In this case, it was an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against Moss, who shined his cleats with a towel while still in the end zone and was whistled for using a prop to celebrate.
Just four days after spraining his left knee in the Redskins ' loss at Baltimore, right tackle Jon Jansen returned to the practice field Thursday.

Cornerback Shawn Springs sat out practice yesterday, and Redskins Coach Jim Zorn said Springs would be a game-time decision tomorrow against the Cleveland Browns at FedEx Field.
'He couldn't practice today because he had some tightness in his calf,' Zorn said of Springs, who participated fully in practice Thursday. 'That'll be a game-time deal. He says he wants to play. I don't know if he'll be fit to play, but we'll see.'
The fact that Springs suffered a setback Thursday probably does not bode well for his chances of playing against the Browns, Zorn acknowledged, 'but I'm the optimist,' he said. 'I'm hoping.'
