Training Camp Practice Report: Aug. 4

This is NOT good!

Doesn't sound too bad right now. No news about getting carted off or anything. All it says is he "may have hurt his knee."

I'm not going to worry until there's a reason to worry.

Let's not rush to judgment yet. MRI could show nothing

huntz · 08-04-2009, 01:11 PM

O-line can't afford this. Have to hope it's nothing major.

SmootSmack · 08-04-2009, 01:13 PM

If it is serious, I wonder if they'll start giving Bridges reps exclusively at T and put Lorenzo Alexander back on offense

Definitely possible given how deep the D-line is now. This got me thinking - with so many of our O-lineman north of 30/coming off surgery, if (when) injuries do occur, what kind of FAs are out there currently? I don't have a list, but I'd love to see one. Anyone?

Walking gingerly, but looks like it's not serious:

At this point I'd rather have Kendall than Thomas. This o-line has me concerned. If this team doesn't have a good year it will not be because of the defense, WRs, running game, coaches, or the QB; It will be because of the FO not drafting good OL men. I'm taking a wait and see approach and I hope my fears are groundless for Z, Soup, and the team's sake.

ahhhh....im so scared. not. relax, its a bruised knee

redsk1 · 08-04-2009, 01:41 PM

I'm not one to rush to a judgement but at the same time I'm getting a little concerned w/ our oline right now. There are going to be injuries throughout the year. The problem is our starting unit is not looking too good per reports. Now, we should have a real good D line, but guess what? NY, Phili, and Dal do too. Our starters are getting it handed to them. What happens when we have some backups in there? A little concerned...

Wait for the MRI just to be sure.

The Eagles lost Bradley for the season Sunday for a torn ACL and he left the field on his own two feet too.

They're just calling it a bruise, and haven't said definitively if he'll even need an MRI.

dont panic, yet

Monkeydad · 08-04-2009, 02:07 PM

"That means more reps for Chad Rinehart, the second-year offensive lineman out of Northern Iowa."

At first, I thought "Why not big Mike Williams?"

Then I read further down:

"Banged-up O-Line?

Stephon Heyer has a bruise on his knee, Jim Zorn said after practice.

"I don’t know what the extent of it is," Zorn said. "We’re looking at it."

Also, Mike Williams has injured his groin, Zorn said.

They join Randy Thomas and Casey Rabach in nursing injuries."
