2014 Injury Thread

[Mt. Crushmore]

Tough injury for Ballard.  He tore his ACL early in the season last year.

[JO_75]

Per Schefter, 49ers RB Kendall Hunter has torn his ACL.

 

Another RB down... Lynch is probably thinking to extend his holdout for as long as he can. 2 RBs down so far.

 

 

49ers RB Kendall Hunter tore his ACL in yesterday's practice, per official familiar with injury.

 

Sunday 7/27/14 Update:

 

Panthers have lost rookie RB Tyler Gaffney for the year as he suffered a torn lateral meniscus in his left knee.

So many RBs getting injured. Seahawks RB Christine Michael left practice on Sunday with a shoulder injury.

While not as serious as the others, Carroll said he'll be back by Tuesday, Lynch has to be sitting at home thinking, he could have gotten injured by now as well.

Another Dallas defender down, and I'm guessing he was going to be a part of that rotation.

That is a tough break on the Cowboys, they wanted him to develop into that weakside DE for them. They do have Mincey and Spencer at least but that is a tough break for them.

Colts will likely lose LG Donald Thomas to another quad injury. He re-tore his quad in Wednesday's practice, which was the same injury that cost him 14 games of last season. So to put that in perspective, he signed a 4-year $14M deal in March 2013 and will have only played in two games.

The Browns have released G Jason Pinkston after reaching a settlement and whose career may be done with as he is battling blood clots in his lungs. Per Schefter.

 

 

 

"More than likely I'll have to retire," Pinkston texted this afternoon. "The Browns were great working with me and I would love to thank GM Ray Farmer and Owner Jimmy Haslam for my opportunity here in Cleveland. It's been an honor to be apart of the organization and city."

Looks like David Wilson's career is over. Very sad story.

Think we may need a suspension thread... Martellus Bennett has been suspended by the Bears for an "undetermined amount of time" after he body slammed rookie TE Kyle Fuller during practice. Video of the confrontation in the link.

Giants guard Eric Herman has been suspended for four games for violating the PED policy. One more suspension and I think I'm just gonna start a suspension thread. The numbers seem unusually high this year...

Impressive body slam.  Maybe he can be a guest on WWE while suspended.....

[MissK528]

Sooo I know I said new suspension thread if we got another suspension, but I also have an injury to report, so I'm already here.

Which means Jake Matthews to LT, where he was going to be next year anyways.

The Falcons signed him to a 6-year $41M deal in March 2013, only played 4 games last year before getting injured. Now he'll play no games this year.

And he can't be cut to save cap room until the 2016 season.  (They could pst June 1st cut him next year and save 2.7 million though.)

Anybody heard any news on Jalen Saunders? Jets say he is in hospital for the observation following a one car accident but there are police reports that he had a "medical condition" while driving.
