Injuries around the league

[Kevin]

Don’t underestimate good technique as well. You see it in a lot of sports.

Yes, a lot of injuries to offensive linemen happen when they lose leverage or position, or bad footwork, and fall awkwardly, sometimes on their teammates legs.

No word on their #4 pick Denzel Ward yet

The #4 pick in the draft - Ward is out for the game. Not sure how serious it is other than that.

In my eyes text book tackling is becoming a lost art. These kids nowadays are looking for the kill shot rather than wrapping up the ball carrier.

Better chance at stopping the ball carrier if you go around the knees to feet . Going for the hips could get you steamrolled

As far as today's Rams vs Texans the only injuries that I noted on the field were to:

ER- Ryan Davis- left knee or lower leg, never returned
TE- Johnny Mundt- left hip lower back, never returned
DT- Ethan Westbrooks- Right shoulder/arm injury & went to the locker room.

I hope Westbrook is ok. He's looked fantastic this preseason

Yep. Easier to chop a guy down. With how strong all these guys are, less chance of you being embarrassed if you take their legs out.

Looked like Mindt turned his ankle but, I haven't heard anything about his injury.

Westbrook better be ok.
