Exactly. So maybe they IR Fisher aswell and he only misses 3 games . Or he just starts week 1

Not sure he will be ready(cleared) for week 1

[DougDew]

Ehlinger and Woods will be put on IR, needing one more out right cut to accommodate the three on the COVID list.

Fisher is on Covid list anyhow currently. and T.Y. couldnt have been put on PUP during the camp, he is gonna most likely get IRd

Man I completely forgot Fisher was on the covid list because of everything the past couple of days lol.

Would be nice to develop someone else as LS that could contribute in other ways.

Rhodes was signed as a LB

Luke Rhodes is a capable linebacker. Thats why he was originally signed but changed positions to retain a spot on the roster and is a terrific LS. You dont mess with a long snapper though. A bad one can ruin games, so keep a good one doing what hes doing.

Ehlinger, TY. Pinter are just a few that might end up on IR. Not sure how close carrie is.

I think Brown looked better than all three..

[coming on strong]

Cutting Vaughn’s is the biggest mistake he will go turn into a star somewhere else . Dulin is not a good wr at all I get he plays special teams but so could Vaughn

The injuries at some positions make things a little hazy

Exactly I am not sure if any LS in the league does anything but LS.

Most likely TY will be IR too. Just no reason to rush back from a neck issue

[John Hammonds]

I know I could look this up myself, but it's quicker just to ask.

Did we keep our string going signing a UDFA?

They do not, even in CFB you seee it veeeerrrrrrryyyyy rarely. And normally only out of necessity

Most LS only LS

None that I know of unless injuries occur

[RNGDShobby]

COVID:
Wentz
Kelly
Pascal
Fisher
So 4 guys to come off that 53.
Hilton
Patmon
Ehlinger 
Woods
Could all be going to IR
Perfect maffs!

 So what was it about him that got him fired?  I didn't see him play that much and didn't really notice him in the action. 

[Archer]

So, it looks like we avoided having to end some players’ season by possibly gaming that COVID list.  The four players on that list let us keep Ehlinger, Hilton, and Pinter, who can now make it to the IR without ending their season when the COVID players come back .  Hope it was not a violation of the rules!  Seems Belichikian…

@GoColts8818

     The last position player that I know of to long snap at the NFL Level was Ken Dilger and that only because of injury

Correction 23 years. 

 

We kept 7 last year due to just who they were, normally even keeping 6 with our base D isnt as normal, 

 

 

Special teams

While true, I just meant in general though keeping 7 is very weird, keeping 6 in our base, the bottom need to be ace ST

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Not that I am happy about TY injury but I am glad for now we get to keep Patmon and Dulin.  We should be able to get some of these young guys onto the PS.

[bertjones7]

I had the same thought.

 

2 others - 

1. Fisher - if Colts dont feel like he is ready, Fisher could also go on IR and be activated in like 3 weeks. 

2. Pinter - has been dealing with injuries as well.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

 

[Myles]

All in all, I'm pretty happy with the players we kept.  The 4 RB's I wanted to keep and the WR's I wanted to keep.   i liked the trade for Pryor.   A good day.

Are any of our Dlinemen hurt?  We kept a ton.  Wonder if any will be “injured” before those guys come off the COVID list…

Lewis had a shoulder injury but it seemed he returned to practice yesterday.

Maybe they wanted to buy some time to check Lewis injury for a few days, then cut one.

Yeah but Pittman, Patmon and Strachan can all do what Vaughns does.  We dont need a 4th big body receiver. 5th if you include Mo Cox at TE. Vaughns and Black will very likely be on the PS.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Does anyone know if Ballard typically does a presser after cuts?

Hope so. I could listen to him speak forever

But not overly surprising. Think he was always behind Fisher in his recovery.
