This could save MAC getting the 4th spot on initial roster if Jelani is put to the i.r. No report how far along the injury is.

I would guess PuP. That would give Jelani 4 weeks to heal.

Thats rough

It’s an Ogletree and Granson show at TE, I guess.

 

Get well soon Mr. Woods!!!

Not a doctor but from what I gather a strain is actually a tear so it probably is still a strain but more severe?

[Scott Pennock]

Ogletree, Gransen and Mallory offer a lot of pass catching upside but Cox offers more inline blocking so my guess is all of them are safely on the 53 until Woods returns from IR or the PuP…..

I still wonder if CB is trying to move MAC before cutdowns?

A full tear normally requires surgery and up to three months to heal.

 

A strain which you are correct to say is technically a tear can take anywhere between three to eight weeks to heal.

He’s practiced so he can’t go on PUP.  They could put him on IR with designation to return after he makes the final 53.  If they do it before then he misses the season.

Yeah if it is a complete tear, he will be done for the season. A severe strain, he can be back in November.

I thought Steichen mentioned the other day the Woods was getting closer to returning?

Or perhaps Pharaoh Brown?

[Peter Nova]

I like Mallory. I guess he makes it for now.

He could be - like I said Carolina, Philly and Da Bears all would have strong ties to him at the very least.

A fully torn hamstring is a grade 3 strain. A partially torn is a Grade 2 strain. And a grade 1 strain is really just a pulled hammy. 

 

I am guessing it's at least grade 2 strain if they are using the word "torn." Not good for a bigger guy who is also a pass catcher. 

[Archer]

I’d IR him, since we have too many worthy TEs already.  Let him spend the year getting 100% healthy.  MAC stays for his blocking, which will help the run game and rookie QB…

If it was grade 3, we would know it because that would require surgery and someone would have reported it, my guess using the word torn is just because they didn't know which grade it was because even a grade 1 is a tear. Hamstrings take a very long time to heal though and can get re-aggravated easily. I know my tear took 6 months to fully recover and it was painful, after work I couldn't sleep with any pressure on that leg just because of the pain.

Makes sense why he has been out for so long just wish we would’ve been told something. Granson will be TE1 this year.

MAC is supposed to be a good in-line guy.  But he regressed last season.   
 

I like the idea of two bigs and two flex.  Granson has done real well this year and Mallory could be even better given time.

I really like the potential of Woods and AR in the red zone. When Richardson rolls out what does a LB do? Stick to Woods like glue and let Richardson potentially carry it in, or give Woods a step and make sure Richardson can’t take off with it? If he does the latter all he’s going to be able to do is watch helplessly as Richardson sails one directly over his head for Woods to go up and get. 
 

Have fun not getting the wrong answer on that test. 
 

Really hope to see Woods out there healthy soon!

I really like Woods, think Ogletee could create that some kind of mismatch and situation down at the goal line/

The worst part is that this was a reaggravation of a hamstring injury he suffered back in spring. Hamstring injuries are really tricky. And Woods is a huge person. Hopefully they give him plenty of time to heal up.
