Great detective work Shamus!

I notice his pads cover his knees also. Could be covering areas frequently effected by psoriasis. 😜 

Next up: why is Von Miller always so upbeat and Diggs often moody? Enquiring minds want to know. 

 

 

Laugh all you want to but he has not practiced without sleeves since the stretching “incident”. We’re talking about a guy who said he almost didn’t wear sleeves during the Patriots wildcard playoffs game which was 0 degrees outside. Now he where’s sleeves to every practice in 80 degree heat and just coincidentally started wearing them every practice, which hasn’t been the case all of training camp until that point. Maybe it’s nothing and I hope it’s nothing but being that I’ve partially torn my own UCL, from experience I can tell you it took almost 2 years to get to 100%

So obviously need a thread speculating on what is ACTUALLY wrong! 🤔  🤣 

The question is why he’s only wearing long sleeve shirts now to practice which he’s never done in the past. Clearly it doesn’t appear anything is wrong based on visual evidence but I’m concerned for lingering issues during the season

Could be just to keep everything loosened up, like MLB pitchers do.  Throwing a football isn't a "natural" motion, and it can be hard on your joints, ligaments, and muscles.  

Even if that’s the case, why wear long sleeves exclusively? Could the elbow be taped and he doesn’t want people to see?

[Question About Josh Allen’s Elbow]

Let’s have a discussion about Josh Allen’s elbow and whether we should be concerned at all moving forward.

 

As of now, all we know is that he left the practice field for 20min or so a couple weeks back to get “Stretched out” and then he returned to practice and resumed his normal activities after that. Since then we have been told that there are no issues and that everything is fine, which includes fully practicing and practicing well.

 

What I have noticed though is that since Josh was removed from practice he has exclusively practiced with a white long sleeved shirt, effectively not showing us his elbow at all. He played the Red & Blue scrimmage with short sleeves which was right before the incident the next Monday. Let’s remember last year, as soon as Josh hurt his elbow against the Jets, he played with a long sleeve shirt in every single game after that because he was wearing a brace. It doesn’t appear during practice that he’s wearing anything under the sleeve, but why has he’s been wearing long sleeves when it’s been 80 degrees out? He’s never done that in the past. He barely ever wore long sleeves during the previously 4.5 seasons in his career.
 

Just wondering….Sorry to be negative but it’s a legit concern for me
