"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Washington linebacker Brian Orakpo said he expects to play Thursday night with a hard cast on his left hand, CSN Washington's Tarik El-Bashir reports.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Orakpo, who injured his hand during Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, said x-rays showed no break. But he does have a torn ligament.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022&amp;nbsp;\u200BBANKS: Tannehill's status uncertain ahead of Miami's London trip\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CI don\u2019t feel as bad this week as I did in the game so I can still play my normal right side,\u201D Orakpo said. \u201CI\u2019ll be fine.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CI don\u2019t know how it will affect me because I haven\u2019t been in that situation yet,\u201D he said. \u201CWe\u2019ll see. I should be fine. I\u2019m on the edge. I can hold the edge. I only need to grab [when I] tackle.\u201D\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 28-year-old has 10 tackles and half a sack this season. He had 10.0 sacks last season en route to making his third Pro Bowl.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cornerback DeAngelo Hall will miss the rest of the season after tearing his Achilles during Sunday's loss.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Washington is 1-2 on the season and hosts the New York Giants on Thursday night.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022&amp;nbsp;\u200BMcCANN: Bisciotti more candid than Goodell because of less liability\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Paul Palladino&lt;/em&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
