    Redskins rookie safety Jordan Bernstine will miss the remainder of the season with a severe right knee injury, coach Mike Shanahan announced Monday afternoon.

    The team signed safety Jordan Pugh, a third-year pro out of Texas A&M.

    Bernstine, whom Washington drafted in the seventh round out of Iowa, tore the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee playing on the kickoff coverage team with roughly 11 minutes left in Sunday’s game at New Orleans.

    Bernstine had to be carted off, and immediately after the game, Shanahan said although an MRI hadn’t yet been conducted, the Redskins’ trainers knew that the injury was serious and that Bernstine would miss significant time.
