ASHBURN, Va. (AP) Defensive lineman Jason Hatcher and running back Chris Thompson are listed as questionable for the Washington Redskins' game against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

Also questionable are linebacker Keenan Robinson and safety Jeron Johnson. As expected, linebacker Perry Riley Jr. (foot) and wide receiver Andre Roberts (knee) are out.

Coach Jay Gruden said Friday that Roberts needs to decide whether to have season-ending surgery on his knee.

Hatcher has been dealing with a pinched nerve in his neck, while Thompson has a torn labrum in his left shoulder. If Thompson is unavailable, new running back Pierre Thomas would be active.

Another recent addition, Alex Smith, ''has got a chance to play a significant amount of time'' as the team's second tight end, Gruden said.
