Coach Mike Shanahan calls OLB Lorenzo Alexander "from top to bottom," the best special-teams player he's ever been around. | ||||||
"You don't find many guys like Lorenzo," said Shanahan. "If he's not in the Pro Bowl on special teams, I don't know who it'll be." Alexander has also taken over as the starting left outside linebacker, though he's splitting time with Andre Carter. | ||||||

Lorenzo Alexander is expected to start ahead of LOLB Andre Carter for the second game in a row this week. | ||||||
Carter is turning into a situational pass rusher in nickle packages while the Redskins take advantage of Alexander's better all-around skills on early downs. The two players are essentially splitting snaps now. | ||||||
