Redskins place Springs on IR
Football Betting Lines
12/27/2006 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins have placed cornerback Shawn Springs on injured reserve because of a fractured shoulder blade.
Springs, who suffered through an injury-filled 2006, was hurt in the first quarter of last Sunday's 37-31 overtime loss to the St. Louis Rams. He also missed the first five games of the campaign after abdominal surgery in August and sat out another contest with a hamstring injury.
The 10th-year veteran out of Ohio State had 38 tackles and one interception in nine games this season, his third with Washington. The native of nearby Silver Spring, Maryland spent his first seven NFL seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, who made him the third overall pick of the 1997 draft.
Washington also released cornerback Mike Rumph, a 2002 first-round pick of the San Francisco 49ers. He had 11 tackles in seven games this season, his first with the Redskins.
Cornerbacks John Eubanks and Leigh Torrance were signed to fill the vacant roster spots.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
