On the two CBs they picked up..... saw 2 they liked... 

 

They did not make any other claims

[EastStreet]

On Srachan...

 

small doses to start... will get more if he does well.

[RNGDShobby]

Watching as well. 

 

Players only being able to placed on IR after 4pm today answers the question of why Chachere and Tell were cut vs players being put on IR.

 

Wonder if Chachere & Tell clear waivers, they get added back to active roster once TY, Sam, others get put on IR?

Meh, at least one of them is going to get cut when the 3 on COVID-list return probably.

Presser done...

 

Too bad they waisted so much time on vax with the same old Qs....

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

TY had surgery and got immediate relief and Ballard said it was a minor procedure. Don’t know if Fisher will bo on IR until he is back in the building. Patmon may go on IR.

[EastStreet]

Summary for the TDLR

• TY had surgery. Instant relief. He's good. Going to IR
• Same old Vax Qs. He was clear he was pro-vax, and that he supports his guys. Will continue to educate.
• Sam Ehlinger to IR
• Pending update on Patmon, but he may go to IR
• Some players will move officially to IR later today
• Really like Fisher's progress, will make a clearer call when back from Covid.
• Strachan - will start with small doses, increase as his performance supports.
• Happy watching Ben have success

Those questions need to be asked. "Do you watch the playoffs" now that's a question I could have gone without in favor of something else about the team.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Such good news on TY. Wonder if Coutee will be put on the 53 for Seattle. Fisher is good news too. He would of been ready not for covid I bet.

I thoughthe made it clear. They will keep 3 on the active roster once Sam comes back. But right now the third one will be on the PS.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

If Patmon goes to IR that will be 3 spots for the covid guys most likely tomorrow.

It's the same questions over and over again.

Everyone on the planet knows Ballard will say the same thing...

1. He and Frank are both personally pro-vax
2. He has good men, that he trusts to follow protocols, and will support whatever their decision is
3. The organization will continue to educate

They've been asked ad nauseum. 

[LiveAndLetAddai]

  Ty, to the IR, seems like a recurring theme the past few years, and it sucks...I hope he comes back and stays healthy.  Sam, who cares, he is a practice squad player at best...atm.  Patmon to the IR hurts a little but Strachan can hopefully fill that void.  And lastly, the news on Fisher and Ben are good!  Go Colts!

I still think Fisher is going to start week 1.  Thought Ballard was trying hard to not sound excited about his progress.

It did sound that way.  But he won’t get enough practice in. He would just get one week.

Yeah, that would be a good thing.  Seems like that's what the undercurrent is trending towards.  Big surprise announcement the first week, IMO.

I could see week 2. What we dont know is what he was doing behind closed doors.

As we talked about it could depend on his medical clearance but I would agree

Hard hitting as usual.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Ballard wouldn’t commit to Wentz week one. Do you guys think they don’t know or are playing games to not let Seattle know.

[Four2itus]

After I listen to Ballard talk, I feel like..........
