Though we’ve heard that Redskins receiver Devin Thomas is expected to miss only a couple of days with a mild hamstring strain, coach Jim Zorn said that the rookie second-rounder from Michigan State will be gone for as long as two weeks.

Such an absence would cause Thomas to miss the season-opening Hall of Fame game on August 3 against the Colts.

Thomas suffered the injury while running along the sideline, chasing a deep pass.

“My leg locked up on me like a cramp,” Thomas said, according to Redskins.com.  “I couldn’t really put any pressure on it.  I went inside to relax it and it feels a lot better.”
