Washington Redskins star Niles Paul out for season

Washington Redskins tight end Niles Paul has been ruled out for the entire 2015 season after dislocating his left ankle on Thursday night.

The injury came during the 20-17 win over the Cleveland Browns, when Paul was placed on a cart prior to the medical staff putting an air-tight cast on his left leg.

"This one is a tough pill to swallow. Finally got the opportunity I always wanted since I entered this league. Took me four years to get there," he wrote on Twitter.

Tight end Je'Ron Hamm also left the game with a left thigh injury, while backups Jordan Reed and Logan Paulsen are already both sidelined due to hamstring and foot problems respectively.
