LaVar Arrington, rehabbing his injured right knee, completed a conditioning test on Tuesday and passed "with flying colors," director of sports medicine Bubba Tyer said.


The three-time Pro Bowl linebacker could be practicing with the team, albeit on a limited basis, as early as next week.

"We're getting close," Tyer said. "LaVar's getting better."

Arrington is expected to continue through this week with his normal routine. That means Wednesday's schedule will include weight training for his legs, plus some field work in the afternoon. The Redskins have scheduled a closed practice on Wednesday evening. If there is no lingering soreness following workouts this week, the next step would be for Arrington to take part in limited practice, including agility drills, after the Redskins' first preseason game at Charlotte, N.C., this Saturday.
