Damn this guy really is so bad this year I wish we could trade him!! 

[NorthernBlue]

That's bad

 

Like really bad

[dodsworth]

We need so many pieces on defense and safety depth is definitely 

one of them.

[AwesomeAustin]

I heard TJ Green was available

Hell we need a starting SS lol not just depth 

[Calmack]

Honestly if this is a hip issue from his pre draft hip surgery then we should shut him down and schedule a corrective procedure ASAP. He needs time to heal

[CR91]

Im expecting a lot of passes over the top now

[LJpalmbeacher2]

The thing with Hooker is his game is SPEED & RANGE. He's not known for his physicality or tackling ability. Evidence on his whiff on Moncreif. 

So knee and hip injuries is concerning with him.

[Fisticuffs111]

Oof. Having Hooker out for the defense against the Raiders was like having Castonzo out for the offense. If Mariota has time, which it seems like he will with how our pass rush has been lately, he could torch us.

Time to cut the team's losses on this one.  Bob Sanders-like availability, without Bob Sanders-like ability.

I agree but I do hope he gets this injury bug figured out.

This is still only his second game missed this year

I was referring to his college time and rookie year. I thought it's been said same hip issue since college?

Sure but having only missed 2 games this year is totally fine with me others have missed more

Why would you cut someone who has shown production when healthy and is on a rookie deal? 

 

Rule of thumb is an ACL will see the player have a “down” year the season after. Chill.

 

Unless this was sarcasm?

You'd be surprised how many trade hooker people are on here it's horrible 

[Colt Overseas]

Hooker's health is still quite concerning. Yes, this is only his second game out but he seemly is always on the injury report. It looks like he has been carrying nagging injuries all season. Hip injuries are no joke, I hope he can get through this. I think he is having a solid season, but I feel these injuries are restraining him from playing to his best.

 

Would love for the guy just to have a full preseason and then regular season healthy. Think we would see him at his very best. I rate him very highly, he can be one of the best free safeties in the league.

[colt18]

I don't see why anyone is panicking. Hooker was great last season, has been a bit hobbled this season. R-E-L-A-X

[Derakynn]

Good thing Mike Mitchell is back then

[chrisfarley]

 

Please wait a second.....OK, i'm over it now, next man up.

He didn't even play half of the season. He seems to be hurt a lot this season. It is becoming a trend. He is no tackling machine by any stretch. I hope he is fully healthy next year and can play to a high level for the whole season.

I'm not ready to say we need to trade/cut etc him. However, with his injury history, it would be smart to get another high end safety. Whether that's thru FA or the draft, we need someone to not only step in when Hooker is hurt, but push him to be better

Getting hit in the knee at full speed and blowing your ACL isn't a sign of being injury prone.

No but nagging hip injuries are

[Jdubu]

Hooker is listed as out for today’s game. 

[needanoline63]

On an already bad pass defense. O boy this isn’t good

[Mr.ZapRowsdower]

The injury bug on this kid is a tick and it’s seems to be latched on pretty good. That being said I think he’ll shake it.

Possibly,, and that's why I only pointed out his knee injury that caused him to miss half of last season.

If you find a spider in your house, what do you do?  Burn down your house and move into a new one?

I actually like spiders.  They take care of all the things I really hate like gnats, mosquitoes and flies.  When I find one I put it near my doors and windows to keep those winged nuisances out of my house.  They are natures' answer to pestilence.
