Dawson Knox concussion

[YoloinOhio]

His injury status is critical for this game imo. He hasn’t had a lot of production so far but he creates. Big mismatch for the rams LBs and secondary when you look at their personnel. He’s on the bike today which means he should be in at least stage 2. We will see how he progresses. 

[Seasons1992]

Hmm. Did this happen on the invisible fumble we didn't see on Sunday?

His ability to get down the seam creates a lot of opportunity for our wideouts in the middle of the field.  His blocking ability isnt talked about a lot here, but it's very good for a second year player who a lot of people see as more of a receiving weapon.  

[GunnerBill]

He is also blocking pretty nicely. Which means they don't need to tip their hand with personnel groups.

The fumble is on the All-22, and he hopped right on up afterward, so my guess would be that it happened on a subsequent play, but who knows?

Someone said Dion Dawkins accidentally hit him in the head after a play

Are we sure it was an accident and not retribution for the fumble?

I agree Knox is important but Kroft isn't a bad player. Not sure if that is as big of a downgrade as you think.

Yikes not sure - Dion needs to pay his ***** bills!

The current thinking is it was actually "friendly fire" - there was a play in the 3Q where he went down on a block and Dawkins kicked him in the helmet pretty hard.

He got up looking a bit dazed.

Injury news from our favorite Glab sounds a whole lot better today than it did yesterday.

May not have Moss & Knox, but the rest sound mostly ok.

[2003Contenders]

I doubt that the injury came on the elusive fumble play. Remember, after the video resumed (which was after the fumble), Knox had a near-catch down the seam that was stripped at the last second as he was hitting the ground. It was a great throw by Josh and a nice play by the defender to get the ball out before Knox could secure it. I wonder if that was the play in which he got hurt?

This musta been on "One Bills Live"?  What's up with Moss?  I hope it's not the dread "turf toe"

[Ed_Formerly_of_Roch]

Agree he's needed.  His blocking has improved quite a bit from last year and he is a big strong gtarget.  So many here want to replace him already, but in this offense, the TE isn't going to see that many targets anyway especially if Davis continues to shine with a 4 WR set, so at the least he serves as a good decoy that defenses have to account for.

Send a 6th round pick to the Bucs for Gronk! A return home to Buffalo.

if he has toes, I think thats a good thing, no? Why would having a toe keep him out of practice?

I can't think of many things that would make me hate the Bills, but this would get me close. He is a dirty POS.

[JMF2006]

I remember an NHL player getting concussed and when the trainer told the coach that the player got dinged good and couldn't remember who he was the coach responded " tell him he's Gretzky"

 

Time to tell Knox he is Tony G

How do get turf toe playing on grass?

Doesn't it mean that if he is out on the bike he has cleared the first part of concussion protocol?

I don’t know if it is actually turf toe. Just a toe injury as far as we know

Yes that’s why I said he should be at least stage 2

His blocking is and has been below average borderline terrible

I actually like this idea.  Gronk doesn't have much left in the tank, but he still can play a little bit and Allen has more to offer him than Brady at this point.  The Bucs have depth at the position and he's not the main guy by any means.  Can he block as well as Smith?  He'd probably be excited to play for his hometown team before he retires.  That said, without fans this year, it wouldn't be the same experience for him.

No no and NO.  Why don't you go ask Tre about this genius idea of yours?

[GoBills808]

@YoloinOhio 

@Blaise321 

 

I submit the missed block on Judon last year that cost the sack fumble, the missed block on the QB sweep vs Texans that might have won the game, and most recently the missed block on Miami DE first drive of second half last game that resulted in third down sack as proof. He is lost as a blocker

 

I am open to evidence to the contrary

[Jerome007]

He had been blocking well, often playing almost as a FB

Critical? At least half the roster is more important than he is. 

 

I'll admit he's shown some potential and has a few very exciting plays. However, if we're judging him on his overall play the guy is one of the worst starting TE in the league

He’s a difference maker when put in the position 80% of the time.  20% of the time he sucks
