Frank said yesterday he didn’t think it was anything to worry about.

I guess we’ll see when the first injury report comes out tomorrow.

[EastStreet]

Not sure I've ever been more interested in a week 1 injury report lol...

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

Nelson must be having a harder time with his foot.

 

 

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

This is not good if we don’t have Rhoades lol.

 

 

It’s Nelson’s back.

 

 

[JediXMan]

So Kenny Moore is practicing I assume?

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

Wonder if Rhodes got vaccinated and it’s just the effects. Weird it would be unspecified.

[JediXMan]

So there’s a small chance Fisher might play week 1 and not Nelson wth.

Still got 9.5 sacks as a DT what a beast.

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

Looks like Rhodes has a calf issue. Not good.

So that is what Reich was talking about when he said he was playing with one hand last season. That is amazing. Now think he is healthy.

What is a flare up? Weird injury designation. Before camp Nelson said he's had a couple of procedures/surgeries done this off season but refused to say what was operated on... I've seen some people speculate it was his back(this issue with his back has been popping up on injury reports for a while now). I really really hope this is not something serious. OLineman with a back problem doesn't sound good to me.

He has had back issues since he entered the league. Disc issue. Maybe the offseason surgeries were just minor to try and help elevate pain and maybe he will need a more evasive disk surgery in the future.

Campbell lol. I hold that wasn’t something that happened in practice.

Nelson is too damn big.   His listed weight is 330.   But I seriously doubt he’s ever been that.   Before his second season, a story I read, Nelson admitted he played his rookie season at….  345.   He was hoping to lose a little weight from that.  
 

That extra weight is putting tremendous pressure on an already shaky back.   I’d love for him to be at 325, but I’m not holding my breath.   Way too many young players are convinced bigger is better.   (Sigh…)

 

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

Thank goodness.

Calf injuries linger too... in the best of cases. Or get worse in the worst of cases. 

[TaylorTheStudMuffin]

Hopefully this isn’t a pre cursor to Campbell blowing his Achilles. Sounds like just precautionary.

He had the same problem before the season opener last year.

Alright….

Carrie and Rodgers gotta step up now sigh.

Really hope this calf injury isn’t something major. It could be worse though ask the Ravens.

Considering TY missed like 4 games with his it could be major. But the fact he hasn’t been put on IR I think is a good thing.

Providing he doesn't have a positive test. Or anybody else for that matter.I'm not going to get too excited about games until an hour before kick off. Lots can change up until that time.

[EastStreet]

He wasn’t on the inury report so he will be fine. Good thing he is a DB.

He's a DB who is known as a downhill enforcer, and struggles in coverage.

I'm sure he's a tough kid, but stiches in the hand just aren't good for an enforcer, or coverage guy.

Defensive backs have played with casts all the time. He just has stitches. It won’t effect his game.

OK lol.

Ever had stitches in your hand? Ever had you hand whack a helmet or get pinched on a hit. 

Hands/fingers are one of the most sensitive parts of the body. Mean he'll likely be numbed up. Numb hands aren't the best thing for a FS.
