Colts ILB Pat Angerer is in danger of missing Week 1 due to concussion-like symptoms.

Angerer suffered the concussion in Indianapolis' preseason finale. The Colts could be down to their No. 4 inside linebacker next to Jerrell Freeman, as Kavell Conner (ankle) is out for Week 1. The No. 4 option is Kelvin Sheppard. Sep 6 - 1:16 PM

Apparently he sustained this hit in the Cincy game, played 22 more snaps and also practiced Monday-Wednesday. Why wouldn't he go to the trainers sooner? There is a quote on twitter of Pat saying "He just thought it would go away."

That is the big elephant in the room. Hits to the head can seriously affect ones judgement.

Because he knows he already has the injury prone label

So, Sheppard and who goes with Freeman?

Edit: I see now. Harvey is healthy as well. So Sheppard, Harvey, Freeman, & maybe Connor

@gregrakestraw: #Colts injury updates from today: Kavell Conner has been ruled out for Sunday's game.

@gregrakestraw: #Colts injuries: If Angerer can't go, Freeman and Shepherd will start at ILB, with Harvey as the backup.

If you watch any of the several plays where Pats man blows by him and is running free, you should be able to notice he is chasing them and looking very slow, on a right foot that does not look healthy.

 IMO, they are choosing to put an "OLSON" on the field. :dunno:

 

Seeing isn`t always believing here.

@gregrakestraw: #Colts injuries: Anthony Castonzo is full go. Pagano credits medical staff and Castonzo for putting in the time during rehab. Long hours.

 

So he will be playing at less than 100%. Oh boy!

Andrew knows what that means.

A decent LG & RT and run for your life. Save him Stanley, and Ahmad!! :rawr:

The tweet said "Full go" I don't believe that means anything less than 100%. I really don't think Pagano would out our franchise T out there in danger if he wasn't 100% against a team like the Raiders where we probably won't even need him. That would be pointless. If he wasn't ready to go on Sunday they would've ruled him out like they did Connor

Found this story over at ESPN.com....

Sounds reasonably serious.... I would have to speculate that Angerer is questionable at best....

Would not be surprised if he's held out...

Angerer needs a nickname at this point...."fragile Pat", "Mr. China Doll",  The S.A.M. (see angerer mend)...."Roy Hall" 

 

Help me out

 

So guys give 100% and wind up with broken down bodies because of the violent nature of the game (Roy Hall nearly killed Cedric Killings on the field on a kickoff hit, which also seriously injured him), and we give them mocking nicknames for it?

 

Why not rip on Eric LeGrand for having a glass spine while we're at it?

This makes me ANGRY! Really, though, that sucks. Hopefully it's not on the more serious side of concussions.

 

I, too, am beginning to worry about Angerer being injury prone. However, he's quite a talent and it's not worth giving him up on him yet. At the same time, the Colts need to have in the back of the minds that they don't need another Sanders/Stokely/Collie who hardly ever sees the field. He's hasn't reached that point, but if he does they'll need to pull the trigger.

 

Until then, let's just give Pat the benefit of the doubt, wish him a speedy recovery, and hope he can stay that way while playing hard.

Afterall, it isn't THE ANGRY DOME without him.

      2024 Post Draft Updated Roster + Cap Space Discussion Thread. **OP updated, Top 53 Locks page 4**

      By Scott Pennock · Posted

      In Young's case, he profiled as a Safety when he enrolled at Ohio State and then switched to Linebacker much like the draftee Jaylon Carlies enrolling as a CB then switched to the SS/LB role at Missouri.   Youngs two years as a starter at KU (Compares favorably to Carlies): 25 Games, 101 Tackles, 10.5 for loss, 6 sacks, 2 Ints, 6 PD, 1 FF - converted from S to LB at KU Key Measurables: 6'3" w/33" Arms, 4.56 40-yard dash   Carlies 3 years as a starter as a hybrid SS/LB at Missouri: 38 games, 212 Tackles, 11.5 for loss, 3 sacks, 9 Ints, 9 PD, 3 FF, 1 FR - converted from CB to hybrid SS/LB Key Measurables: 6'3" w/34.25" Arms, 4.50 40-yard dash   Key Measurables in the past for successful Colts Linebackers: Leonard: 6'2" w/34.375 Arms, 40-yard dash skewed due to injury but still ran a 4.70 (we know it was likely closer to 4.5) Okereke: 6'1" w/34.5" Arms, 4.58 40-yard dash Speed: 6'4" w/33.25 Arms, 4.60 40-yard dash   In comparison to LB's we let walk or cut due to low production: Anthony Walker: 6'1" w/30.375" Arms, 4.65 40-yard dash (decent stats) Matthew Adams: 6'0" w/31.25" Arms, 4.63 40-yard dash - pretty much drafted as a Special teamer only Jordan Glasgow: 6'0" w/30.625" Arms, Only drafted for special teams play   The one true outlier (as he said at the 2024 NFL Draft - he shouldn't be standing up there): Zaire Franklin: 6'0" w/31.75" Arms, 4.62 40-yard dash - All heart and soul   The Current crop of Back-up and/or PS linebackers on the roster from 2023: McGrone: 6'1" w/32.125" Arms, Injured so no 40-yard dash time (active roster in 23) Stuard: 6'0" w/30.25 Arms, Injured so no 40-yard dash time (only traded for to play special teams) Ajiake: 6'1" w/31.625 Arms, 4.60 40-yard dash time (PS player in 23) Anderson: 6'3" w/29.25" Arms, 4.53 40-yard dash time (PS player in 23 with 1-2 games as a ST's) Harrison: 6'2" w/33.375" Arms, 4.63 40-yard dash (50/50 player last year as he transitioned to LB on the PS) Olubi: 6'0" w/31.75" Arms, 4.45 40-yard dash (active roster in 23 with a couple starts)   Olubi (good speed) and Harrison (length) are likely keepers which gives Young a clear opportunity to take the 3rd back-up role as a core special teamer and possibly work his way into a 3rd and Passing Distance coverage backer like I envision Carlies being as well. So Speed and Franklin play the running downs and those two come in to play coverage.    Also makes me wonder if MAYBE they give Harrison run at SS/Box Safety and move Blackmon back to FS?    Not forgetting Pennix.........he is a BIG BOY at 6'2" & 234lbs who has lined up at RB, FB, HB, and TE in College and was productive that ran a 4.59 forty - only faster TE we have is Mallory and there is no RB bigger than him, but he is faster than Sermon though and they have eerily similar RAS score measurables except Pennix is WAY bigger, just sayin'. I'm going to say it was his versatility that caused him to go undrafted because he didn't do enough at any one position so evaluators had a hard time determining how he could be used!??! But a creative offensive mind like SS can certainly figure out how to use him all over the offense - short yardage back, fullback, HB/TE leaking out into the zones, in-line blocker as a TE. I am interested in seeing what they do with him in open practices and minicamp. Ultimately, he could take one of the back-up roles behind JT and maybe even make someone like Granson expendable (probably not but stranger things have happened)   ****Disclaimer, yes, I know I only focused on the measurements of the player and not what they have done in practice or pre-season games. Given this teams propensity to like certain measurements for certain positions I don't feel like this is a "bad take".......

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Has anyone who has been paying attention to Latu or to Gus Bradley learned if Latu will play the LEFT defensive end or the LEO, the RIGHT defensive end?      Has that been confirmed by anyone?!?      Asking for a few thousand friends here…..   Thanks in advance….

      Chad Kelly sighting

      By GoColts8818 · Posted

      Chad Kelly’s only real impact for the Colts was the pre-season, something Sam has been better at since he’s been here.  Even then we saw how over whelmed Sam looked playing in a real game.  The logically conclusion is Kelly would have too.  Don’t fall for the pre-season trap.  The jump from back up to third string pre-season QB to NFL starter in a regular season game is the size of the Grand Canyon.  Let’s not forget Curtis Painter once looked good enough in the pre-season that some fans actually thought he could be developed into Peyton’s replacement and we all saw how that played out.     Rather anyone likes Kelly or not is irrelevant to the fact he’s had a tone of tape out there for NFL teams to see.  We know NFL teams will give just about anyone they think can be a franchise QB a chance to at least look at him.  The fact no NFL teams have come calling for even a tryout since the Colts released him tells you what teams think of him.     Fans can like him all they want that and $20 will get you a “value meal” at McDonalds.  He’s not some superstar who never got his chance, he’s a pre-season darling who isn’t good enough for regular season football.  Those are a dime a dozen in the NFL.  It’s not that people don’t like or aren’t a fan, in fact I’d argue he’d be a major underdog that most people would cheer for, it’s they have seen this before and recognize it for what it is.

      Yeah, we both have a chance now. I'd love our teams to face in the NBA finals. Would be a lot of fun. Hopefully we keep winning.
