Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garcon is unlikely to play Sunday due to a right foot injury, though he wants to run and test it before the game against the St. Louis Rams, a team official told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Garcon was limited in practice again Friday and was listed as questionable. He was hurt in last week's win over the New Orleans Saints, when he also had an 88-yard reception for Robert Griffin III's first career touchdown pass.

Coach Mike Shanahan had said if Garcon "can go live with the pain, and he feels like he can go full speed, then you let him go."

Aldrick Robinson likely would start if Garcon can't play.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
