??? Why ???

@SandoESPN: #Seahawks camp: Percy Harvin limps off. Moving slowly.

[HtownColt]

@McClain_on_NFL: Texans Rookie NT Louis Nix III, who had a knee scope before camp and is crucial to what the defense wants to achieve, returned to practice.

His first training camp practice

Danny Trevathan broke his kneecap. Out 4-8 weeks.

Ooh that smarts.

Josina Anderson: Broncos LB Danny Trevathan in his own words to me on his injury: "They told me that my ACL and MCL are fine, but that I have a fracture in my knee. The doctor told me I was going to be out four to eight weeks, but I told him four to six. I'm not tripping. I will bounce back. I'm a soldier."

An automatic PUP candidate, right?

[HtownColt]

An automatic PUP candidate, right?

I don't think so, if he was put there he would have to miss the first 6 weeks. If there is a chance he would be back in 4-5 weeks they wouldn't do that

@McClain_on_NFL: Andre Johnson and Arian Foster remain sidelined with hamstring injuries http://t.co/QJfRs58LH3

Ouch

[mo0nlighting]

An automatic PUP candidate, right?

 

They have to be put on the PUP list prior to coming into TC. After camp starts, no one is eligible to be placed on the PUP list.

 

So no, not an automatic candidate.

[Bluefire4]

??? Why ???

Because Thigpen sucks. Grossman also knows the offense.

[buccolts]

Thigpen sucks is no reason, in my book. Grossman is equally sucky.

Familiarity? O.K., but................

Seemingly they already have their starter, and their back up.

Will they keep 3? I'm thinking not.

Neither Thigpen, nor Grossman are PS eligible.

Can't help but think Hoyer will be shopped.

That, or Grossman signed a cheaper 2 week contract than Thigpen had.

I believe they do keep 3. Grossman can help Manziel and Hoyer out with the offense and veteran knowledge.

Where does he fit

Where does he fit

I hear you. I was trying to find the emoticon for "head-scratcher" but could not find one. It is a bad move, JMO. He is one of the most selfish players around.

Slot WR

[BloodyChamp]

Analytic is replacing Elite as the most annoying, useless word in football imo.

[PrincetonTiger]

Falcons OT Sam Baker and Rams RB Isiah Peas suffered what could be serious knee injuries in their respective Week 2 Games

[Qwiz]

Sucks for the Falcons...hopefully this isn't the beginning of another injury-ridden season for them.

[HtownColt]

@MikeGarafolo: Cardinals believe DT Darnell Dockett tore his ACL today, sources tell @FOXSports1. Obviously a tough one for the Cards.
