Welp... Wasn't that our only potential FB?

Dang.

Yeah, we've got a couple of crossover DT's and the TE's can play there.

Big Willie is still a free agent as well. 32 years old, but he knows the team.

Cottom was almost being handed the job, which is very much unlike what is done in camps every year. Not good to hear.

One of the TEs or DLs that have been talked about now have a really big opportunity.

He was wearing a "sling." Guaranteed it's a shoulder. Could be a slight "sprain," but I would bet on something more significant.

The guy pretty much amassed less than two years combined playing time in four years of college.

He went Undrafted because of his injury history.

I agree that unavailability in training camp is as big an obstacle to his success as is his history of injury. Either way it's the same outcome. I bet he is done unless it was a small injury and he can get back to work in the next few days.

For obvious reasons, there are multiple examples of men with no college injury history who became injury magnets in the NFL. I am struggling to think of a list of guys who were injured for half of their college career or more and went on to be successful in the NFL.

No worries, b/c he's now on IR. Injury settlement could be possibly forthcoming.

Lots of college players were injury free until hitting the professional game, i.e.: Russell Okung and James Carpenter. Then those players hit the pros and are thereafter injury magnets. Some college players have injury problems throughout their college careers but manage as pros to be mostly injury free. Just because a player was injury prone as a college player doesn't mean that will be the case as a pro unless their knees or shoulders are so damaged they likely are barely able to make the initial medical clearance or they had serious concussion issues. I simply disagree about Tre Madden though I do understand where you are coming from in that regard.

I think it's still early, after 4 days of camp. Reality for him is he's probably facing an uphill fight to make the team. He will not lose out b/c of injuries but rather b/c he couldn't compete. Maybe it's a shoulder, maybe not, we don't know yet. If he shows enough talent, and he has talent, the team will keep him around to develop even if it's on the ghost roster or the PS. That will happen if the team thinks the injuries will resolve themselves.

Jarran Reed is still injured? He is 2nd round? Oh man.. He is probably a bust because he is an injured. We are waste to draft him for 2nd round. Make me sad. :(

Jordan Hill hurt again? Hope this doesn't become another thing in the regular season.

Not a good start for the uw kids. Lots of young guys with hammies, haven't learned to stretch properly yet. They aren't 18 anymore.

Wonder what the starting line will be. I imagine Gilliam-Glowinski-Britt-Evans-Ifedi
