Well the good thing is he is a d lineman and they have magic dirt to rub on it used to filter Wilsons Miracle Water.

Hell of a lot better it happens now than later, and it could have been a lot worse.
We have 40 days until the Opener. Just under 6 weeks. Could be ready for the Cincy game.

ESPN is reporting it's a high ankle sprain.

I'll take that over an ACL.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

In a heartbeat

Guess it could have been a lot worse, but missing pre-season is never good for a rookie.

This.

High ankles is usually a six week heal time, so that put LJ right at our first or second game for return........and IMO the good news is if there's one position where the learning curve might not be as high as O-line, LB or WR it's D-line where Norton can dumb down LJ's assignments and just let him disrupt until he gets his feet under him.

Exactly what I was going to post.

I'm gonna revisit my rookie impact prediction where I accidentally left L.J. off the list.

Our first round picks have been so bad...be it not having one or hurt or whatever. Just what we need....

This sucks and puts Collier in the unknown quantity pile, but I trust Jn'P for recognizing good DLinemen, Collier will be back. Still am far from believing he's a write-off for this year. Sadly this puts him behind though.

Yeah, most likely when Collier does get back, he'll be limited snaps for several games. And we're facing some good passing teams early, too.

That's why we should always trade out of the first round... :twisted:

I thought they only did that to annoy fans. :twisted:

Sign Clowney to a one year deal with incentives. Allows Collier to heal 100% and learn.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

It's not quite that easy. Clowney is not a Free Agent. Even if the fans think the team is playing with Monopoly money, they would have to trade for him AND pay him a massive contract.

Seahawks get positive news on top rookie L.J. Collier in DE’s return from rare sprain

“He did visit with the docs, traveled to do that. And (they) gave him a really good update. Everything is in line,” Carroll said Wednesday. “He’s out of the (walking) boot. He’s moving. It should be a normal process now in bringing him back. As he can handle and tolerate, he’ll come back to us.”

Which, in coach-speak, means it'll be 3 months before he's in a game.
