PHILADELPHIA-(AP) – Only among actors is “break a leg” a good luck expression. For the Washington Redskins, it’s become an occupational hazard for quarterbacks. Coach Jay Gruden says Colt McCoy suffered a fractured fibula in his right leg in the second quarter of Monday night’s 28-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. McCoy was starting because a gruesome injury to Alex Smith’s leg weeks ago. Well-traveled veteran Mark Sanchez is calling plays now.
