An impressive training camp came to a screeching halt for Lloyd Harrison over the weekend. The former NC State cornerback, a third round selection of the Washington Redskins in this year's NFL Draft, will be sidelined for up to two weeks after suffering a sprained left ankle.

Harrison was injured as he tried to bring down receiver Michael Westbrook during a training camp drill at Redskins' Park in Ashburn, Virginia.

"He's got a ligament tear in his ankle that's going to take some days or a couple of weeks to resolve itself," Redskins trainer Bubba Tyer told the Washington Post.

Harrison, who was an All-American with the Wolfpack, is now wearing a protective boot to stabilize the ankle.
