Fant and Lucas limited participation. Looks like more Jerrell this week.

 

[bigskydoc]

Good. I really want to see what the kid has in his tank. He looked good last week.

 

[Gametime]

Fant and Lucas limited participation. Looks like more Jerrell this week.

Based on his performance on Sunday it's at least nice to feel ok with that rather than the alternative. Knowing Fant and Lucas likely won't be really ready until after the bye week per Mike Mac's interview, (at least in Lucas' case), it does show confidence in Jerrell placing Stone on IR. After the bye week we may be the healthiest we've been all season gearing up for the rematch against the Niners. Fingers crossed!

Cam Young, they've gotta be holding onto this guy because they see something in him. Has any fan seen what they're seeing? Personally, all I've seen is him on an injury report.

 

[nwHawk]

Cam Young is a developmental NT. But, he’s not explosive. His power is not there yet. Replaceable.

 

[Gametime]

Bills just announced both LB Bernard and DT Carter are out for Sunday. Kenneth Walker time! And any receiver being covered by the replacement LB should have an advantage now. Bernard being out is a big loss for them in the middle of the field.

 

[SeAhAwKeR4life]

If we get Woolen back, and with our new linebackers, I'm really wanting to believe in the upset. Even if Josh Allen has improved his turnover ratio, he's bound to cough one up, to us. I've even seen pundits call it, but still predict a Buffalo win, but with our D line mostly back together and (hopefully) a MAJOR midseason upgrade to the linebacking corps, we can't guess for sure what we'll see, but it's certainly cause for cautious optimism!

Our report should be out in a few hours. With our injury this list the Friday designations and the active list game days are always a question mark.

I wouldn't risk DK for this one, especially in the rain

it’s hard to say without knowing the extent of the injury. If he’s still experiencing pain I’d also err on the side of caution as if it becomes serious it could go from week to week to season ending.

It's supposed to rain? F#c%! It's bad enough we have to play at home with our huge home-field DISadvantage. Double whammy.

It’s a grade 1 MCL sprain. His risk of further injury to the knee is minimal. It’s just a question of whether he has too much pain to be effective.

I would be shocked if he played.

 

[GemCity]

Kenneth fcking Walker again?

Dude….

[bigskydoc]

I would be shocked if he played.

Typical return to practice from a grade 1 MCL sprain is 3-4 days, and return to play is 1-2 weeks, and that’s in people who aren’t in a highly anabolic state.

It’s certainly possible that DK is not in a highly anabolic state, but somewhat unlikely.

It really just comes down to how much pain he is experiencing.

Personally, I’d rest him up for the week (he doesn’t need the practice reps) shoot him up with Toradol for the game, and let him play as tolerated.

Um, Walker is playing on Sunday.

Well, it does rain at football games sometimes

I kid.........
