DeAngelo Hall tears Achilles’ tendon again, which could add six to nine months to recovery time
By Mike Jones October 31 at 8:43 AM
Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall tore his left Achilles’ tendon for the second time in five weeks, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed. Hall had surgery to repair the tendon on Thursday.
Hall suffered the initial injury against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 21, ending his 11th season in the NFL. He had surgery shortly after and had yet to begin rehab while still recovering.
Hall then re-injured himself at home.
The exact timeline for his recovery following the second surgery remains unclear. It is believed, however, that it could take another six to nine months for him to recover.
Hall, 30, had re-signed with Washington in the offseason, agreeing to a four-year, $17 million deal with $5.65 million guaranteed.

Here's one straight from the "you gotta be kidding" files.
Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall tore his Achilles tendon -- for the second time in two months -- while trying to get to some pizza in his kitchen Thursday night.
At his press conference on Friday, Washington coach Jay Gruden said, "He had a late night getting some pizza or something in his kitchen and slipped and re-tore it."
The 11-year veteran was already sidelined for the season after tearing his Achilles in a game against the Eagles on Sept. 21. Hall will now undergo surgery for the second time in five weeks.
