Offensive Line coach Joe Bugel has temporarily left the team to be with his daughter, who is battling an extremely rare and virulent form of cancer that has already claimed one of her arms. Expect Bugel to be gone for a few more days, at least, and I’m sure the Redskins will give him all the time he needs.
“Joe is going to be out a couple of days and I don’t know when he’s going to be back,” head coach Jim Zorn said. “I’ve given him the freedom to take care of the situation that he has at home.
“His daughter is very sick. She has been fighting a very rare bone cancer for several years, and he has gone home to visit her and take care of the difficult situation that is happening in their family.”
Bugel coached the Redskins’ offensive line in Saturday’s 17-14 win over the Buffalo Bills.
Immediataly after the game, Bugel took a flight to Phoenix on the plane owned by Redskins owner Daniel M. Snyder.
Like all Redskins fans, DC Pro Sports Report extends its warmest get-well wishes to the Bugel family.
