Joe Lefeged

[ColtJ82]

Haven't heard anything about Joe Lefeged this preseason. I don't believe he has played. Was he out with injury? Anyone have any updates? 

 

Last I heard was when he was running a 40 for having a .40. Everything just went quiet with him. Was he in training camp?

[pgt_rob]

I think he had a calf injury during the Bills game I believe?

[BlueShoe]

His chances of making this team do not look good right now.

OK, so he actually participated in camp and has played? It has been extremely quiet on his front and I couldn't find anything online. I wasn't able to attend camp this year either.

[Buck Showalter]

I was wondering about that guy during the Browns game, the dude made some killer ST plays last season...

[atapcl]

I believe he was injured then came back to practice too soon and was reinjured.

[Bluefire4]

Is he suspended for any games this season?

[Kyle]

i completely disagree.  His absence on special teams has been extremely noticeable and our backup safeties (until Boyett is healthy) are garbage.

 

We dont need to cut him, we need him to get healthy.

[James]

He's not that important.

Agreed. We don't need to cut the captain of ST.

[atapcl]

We have improved at the safety position and someone will have to be cut. We have Lefeged, Asante, Brown, Howell, Landry, and Bethea. 6 players for 4 positions. Landry and  Bethea are the starters. Brown and Lefeged were the gunners on ST last year. Howell has looked good on defense and ST this preseason. Asante ran an int back for a td against the Browns. Cutting two will be hard.

The players who named him captain on special teams would disagree with that statement

[shakedownstreet]

he was injured running from the police

[PrincetonTiger]

Is he suspended for any games this season?

yes but not sure how many

[jameszeigler834]

Why is Mcnary on the Exempt list.

[Gavin]

At this point I'd go with Howell or Asante over Lefeged, If we keep Lefeged then your burning a roster spot do to Lefegeds upcoming (supposedly....not sure anything has been handed down yet) suspension at a position that wont have much depth anyway, I figure we keep 4 Safeties 1 behind Landry and Bethea, if you keep Lefeged then your wasting a spot that could be filled with a player that can actually come in and play if Landry or Bethea get hurt which means we would have to get a FA Safety off the street since Boyett wont be playing anytime soon, I think Howell and Asante earned it, If either look bad, Fine cut one or both of them next year (they wont see alot of playing time anyway except on special teams barring injury) and if Boyett is healthy then you have a solid backup (potentially)

[HtownColt]

yes but not sure how many

No he's not

[PrincetonTiger]

No he's not

my bad

[1959Colts]

No he's not

Not yet.

[HtownColt]

Not yet.

I don't believe he will, I can name a lot of players to have their run in with police and not be suspended by the NFL.

Yeah he's had some nagging injuries..

Good news is that he returned to practice last week..

I expect him to see a lot of reps this last game.

[MR. Blueblood]

Not yet.

First to 1959, unless something actually comes from the charges that were filed against him I seriously doubt the league will step in and suspend Lefedge.

 

Second to HtownColt, while this has happened on plenty of occasions, the team can still impose a "suspension" itself, and not have to have the NFL do it.  My guess is nothing will come of it, and if he makes the 53 as soon as he's healthy enough he'll see time on the field.

Right, he was just stupid for running. He had a permit for the gun, just not in DC. MD And DC are basically the same area. He just panicked when stopped.

At least that's what's my understanding.

The team already sat and talked with him, so if the team was going to suspend him they would have announced that already. But yea he will be playing once that calf is good to go

Which is why Lefeged will have a tough time making the team. His best chance is to be put on PUP. He has not played, while others have, and he was not that good to begin with.

[Sova!]

Howell has been unbelievable this preseason. I think we keep 4 safties and the last spot is a fight between Lefeged and Asante

[coltsfanatic24]

Lefedged and Howell will both make the team.
