Now we will dick around not getting another QB in here in time and we will be playing Petterman or Allen in parts of preseason games that are very dangerous. Having to have Petterman innthere in the 4th quarter of that last game was careless. We need just a nobody that we can stick in there. Once Mccarron got hurt, Petterman became very important. Then he was sent out behind a line that was dangerous in situations that could have really hurt our season.

 

People can get hurt at any time - I’m shocked if they don’t bring in another arm now. But I suspect next weeks game will have starters in there most of the time

Hairline Fxs are hard to diagnose.  The clavicle is one of the last bones to fully fuse... around age 21.  He could still be very sore, bone bruise etc.  Assuming he had a high res CT scan after the xray with bone window that would give a more definitive answer with respect to the nature of the trauma.  Lots of ligaments and muscles in the chest and shoulder attach to the clavicle. As well newly fused growth plates can look like fractures. He is not that old. Bone window in CT with 3d post processing can better id if indeed a fracture or not

He’s considered “day to day” with shoulder soreness. With playing Sunday, he may be able to take some snaps in the game if he’s back by say, Thursday.
