Kelly the Dog Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I didnt see where he got hurt and he played a lot of the game on Thursday. I think he is suffering from the dreaded "He's-too-raw-to-keep-but-too-good-to-risk-release-itis. They could use the IR exemption on him later in the season, in case of serious injury to one of the tackles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed83HOF Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I think you are on to something Kelly. Unless I'm wrong if he is IR'd he can't "practice". I assume he can still attend meetings and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I just looked it up. He needs to be designated at the time he is placed on IR, and he wouldn't have been eligible anyway, because the player has to be put on IR after September 4th to qualify.

Ramius Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I asked Chris Brown on twitter, and he said that he doesn't know but will find out tomorrow. all he knew if that Zerbie missed some practice time this week. I agree with the above, in that they didn't want to risk losing him and he probably just had a minor injury, so they probably just stashed him on IR.

Captain Caveman Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I didnt see where he got hurt and he played a lot of the game on Thursday. I think he is suffering from the dreaded "He's-too-raw-to-keep-but-too-good-to-risk-release-itis. They could use the IR exemption on him later in the season, in case of serious injury to one of the tackles. My understanding is that in order to use that exemption he can't be placed on IR until September 4th. So he's done for this year. Never mind, just saw you fixed it.

MARCELL DAREUS POWER Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 what in the blue !@#$ is up with brooks... i know mcgee needs a few weeks to get ready... brooks???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Probably just a stubbed toe. Just so they can protect him from other teams. But a year without even practicing can't be good for player development. Is he going to be this generation's Easley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed83HOF Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Pats* just Ir'd Jeff Demps, he was listed as Fine on an injury report yesterday and was all of sudden IR'd today. The more I think about it, in George Costanza'a mind, why can't Sanders or even Demp's "practice"? It is only a violation if you get caught. It isn't like the league is there watching all of your practices... Go Bills Good call on the stash Kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
