Another Wr Out Of Thrusday Practice

[12th man]

Well here we go it's Demetrius William held out of thurday moring practice reported by mike Duffy of undesclosed reason, is anyone left?? I know mason and rookies

[neepo13]

Well if they've got to get hurt, I'd rather it be now then during the season when Flacco has come to rely on them. If they go down this gives the other guys time to step up, as opposed to during the season when they would just be thrown into action.

Sorry Mod didn't realize this was alread here

[SupaBwandin]

Most likely, its precautionary

Not surprising... guys are going to be in and out of Training Camp with bumps and bruises. As long as he's ready come Sept. 13th, I don't care.

Not surprised. I was surprised about Clayton being 4-6 weeks but I am used to D-will being injured. Theres still pre season to go through and you know people will be cutting WR's left and right and you know what is someones loss is somebody elses treasure.

Not many teams practice as hard as the Ravens do. When you go that hard, guys get banged up. I don't think it's anything serious with DWill.

There is a reason 30+ year old guys get every 3-4th day off, because guys get hurt. It's harder for 30 year olds to recover, so to try and aviod it they are given breaks.

Unfortunately for DWill every single time he gets a bump or bruise it will be news, people will make a huge deal out of nothing. It's FOOTBALL people not table tennis. Guys get banged up, it's only training camp. You can bet that if there was a game to be played Sunday, everyone of those guys being held out for "injury concerns" would be playing, with the exception of Terry and maybe Rolle.


lets not make a huge deal about nothing.

I agree with where you're coming from. I guess the fear is that when the season starts and he gets hit he'll go down with another injury. That is the nature of the sport and all we can do is hope he remains healthy all year. I want to see someone step up and I don't care who it is. It would be nice to see steady downfield production. The deep threat would be very welcome and make the offense that much better. Hopefully I'll get to see him take the field this saturday.

Ravens WR Demetrius Williams, who missed the morning practice because of a concussion, has passed his medical examination and returned to practice.

Ravens QB Joe Flacco just threw a 10-yard TD pass to WR Demetrius Williams.

Couldn't have been that serious.....

For the most part, I agree with you, but this is D-Will we're talking about. He's been injured what 2/3 of his career now? I can understand why people are worried.
I myself am not concerned; I already think he'll be on IR so these reports don't concern me. XD

We are fragile at the Receiver position. Lets make sure we have experienced depth to come in at any moment.

Fragile is being kind when talking about our receiving core depth.
