Nwosu & Burns injury report - 08/25/24

[WmHBonney]

Thought I might start a thread to track any info we might get on the two injuries. I searched the net, and as of right now, there are no updates.

One important thing to note is that Nwosu later jogged off under his own power. Noting how much different our D was last year after losing him for the season I sure hate to see him have a setback again.

He also had his knee wrapped though...

Hoping it's minor

In post game presser Coach didn't seem pleased (rightfully so) also held his words back, as im sure he was thinking what most of us were and thats (that was bullshit!)

Probably will take some pics and an MRI before they want to say anything. Knees can be tough, of course.

Uchenna Nwosu's shoe didn't get hung up on the turf. Slid along the turf. Although, the chop block was downward directed. Didn't look that bad to me. Could have been a lot worse.

Artie Burns pulled up with a non contact injury.

#77 is a POS

He didn’t attempt to “tackle” he straight up just dove and Nwosu’s knee. SMH

WTF and F W.T. Hopefully, Nwosu is okay. The defense never recovered from his absence last year and that was with injecting Williams, Adams, and Clark into the mix highlighting how vital Nwosu was to the D.

Im hoping it’s just a bruise at best and a sprain at worst and he doesn’t miss more than a month.

However, it does seem like Jones, Mafe, and Hall can get the job done in tandem with a deeper, stronger DLine rotation and Sheriff being the dark horse candidate that might be better now than what we had in Taylor, Hall, Clark, and Tyreke Smith plus whomever last year.

Seahawks are saying that there won’t be any news on these guys before Monday.

Not surprising. Might be letting swelling go down or something. One good thing is opening day is 2 weeks away. If it's just minor he may be ready to go by then.

Honestly, how long has the chop block been banned from the NFL? 7 years or so? It didn't just happen overnight, leading me to believe it was 100% malicious on 77's part.

Dirty bitchass bitchassedness

That maggot mfer straight up DOVE at our dude like the effing Juggernaut.

In the next few days, we'll see if that chop block draws a fine. I would think the league would want to make a statement before week one of the regular season.

From the angle in the game day replay, it didn't look as scary. After reviewing the game day recording in slow motion, Nwosu reacted well in minimizing injury.

 

[sutz]

I've long believed that the league should suspend players for dirty hits, equal to the time the injured player is out.

Wyatt Teller is the POS's name... their starting RG.

Really wish someone would have dived at his knee. You can’t be out there taking shots at guys knees in the pre season, without retaliation

I absolutely LOVE this idea.

I absolutely LOVE this idea.

Yes been talked about for many years but the NFL is always slow on everything except finding a way to get more money out of the consumers pockets.
