I hate to be the one breaking the bad news, but I just saw this on the Post. Doesn't look serious though. Keep your fingers crossed.

Taylor hurts knee
 

Don't worry, doesn't seem too serious.

Happens all the time bro.....

Its not serious. But damn i was nervous there for a few seconds.

My stomach felt sick when I read that.

first day of PASSING camp? man..

Even if its not serious, just hearing it is enough to bring back memories of draft picks gone bad. Not saying this is, but for just a second I couldn't help but think about it.

I just read on redskins.com that Smoot said it didn't look serious at all. It just looks he twisted it a little.

Now who's wishing he would have held out longer? :silly:

I don't think that this is anything serious, though.

it doesnt seem to serious the way they talk about it, but if he sprained his knee hes going to miss camp I imagine. Whenever I sprained something it sucked for atleast a week.

if it really is sprained wont he miss camp though?

Sprains come in many degrees. I guess we will find out tonight or tomorrow. But if what Gibbs and Smoot say is true, he will probably be able to wrap it and go Friday.

Jesus, this guy can't catch a break.

Oh know we drafted an injury prone guy. lol

Yeah, if they said it looks minor than I'm not going to pay too much attention to it. I have had sprains that only hurt for a couple days at most and that is what it sounds like he has. If the sprain was more severe, then people would have made more note of it. For example, I sprained my ankle one time and it swelled up to the size of a grapefruit and I knew that was a pretty serious sprain. The symptoms were definitely there since I couldn't walk or put any weight on it.
Bottomline: Taylor is fine!

Sprains can become chronic though.

My main concern is that every moment on the field from now until gametime is crucial, esspecially if he's slated to start. The off the field downtime will probably end up being more serious than the injury itself.

:cussing: Thank God it's not that serious!! :httr:

man, i guess he's just star-crossed...

I think it's funny how Smoot has become like the press secretary for all the players. Taylor is fine, Coles' toe is fine

I didn't realize Smoot was being a press agent. I thought he was providing uw with his expert medical opinion... ;)

According to the local news, the MRI's came back negative, no tears or anything. He's being listed as "Day to Day"

Every player out there during the season is playing with something. I just hope he can suck it up.

I love it when players are listed as "day-to-day". Aren't we all here on a "day-to-day"basis? Here today; gone tomorrow...

For me, I'll be looking up at grass roots. For an NFL player, he'll be a contributor and then he'll be ... whatever... Day-to-day.

Sad, yet reflective Sportscurmudgeon. I agree.

It's been the surprise of the day lately with Taylor. Training camp should be this interesting.

Press agent? I thought he was the doctor? Dr. smootsmack that is. :laughing-

He's doing a pretty good job too. Can you imagine Smoot being a reporter? Would anyone understand what he's saying?

I heard good news that he will practice Sat. :)
