Injury Update

[libertadrocks]

On Saffold: Good news, his ACL is ok. Bad news, he has a grade 3 MCL sprain. It's not season ending but he'll be out awhile.

Daniels pulled his hamstring. IMO makes him a prime candidate for IR with the return of Pettis.

I concur on Daniels, sir. Bad news about Saffold, what a freak play, but it could have been worse I guess.

Man ,,, Big Boy Saffold can't seem to catch a break. Jeeshh

 

[libertadrocks]

I guess the MCL is expected to take 4 weeks to heal.

I guess the MCL is expected to take 3 weeks to heal.

Really? That's it? We did catch a break there. I thought for sure this morning that his season was done.

Any idea how long he should be out?

Kind of.... After reading your response I realized I made a typo. It should be 4 weeks, not 3. BUt yeah we caught a break.

I thought Saffold's injury looked worse than both Carriker's and Orakpo's. They are both out for the year.

Daniels was hurt on the re-kick after he was called offsides. Only problem is that he wasn't offsides and there shouldn't have been any re-kick.

IDK, but too long to be 5th on the depth chart a safety. Especially when a spot needs to be freed for Pettis IMO.

What suck tho, is the injury should have never happened. He pulled his hamstring on the kickoff following the offsides call on the previous kickoff. Turns out, after watching the tape, we were not offsides on the first one.

Yeah, like many other calls Sunday, it sucks, particularily when it ends with an injury.
