VaMilBill Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 10 minutes ago, NickelCity said: Will feel a lot better when we know what is or isn't up with Taron. Agree. Rasul and Taron are the most important players by far on the injury report. If we have those two playing I’d feel a lot better about our chances. If not, it’s gonna be a long game for the defense. 1 hour ago, Process said: Meniscus tear is probably good news right? Isnt it common for guys to play through those?

The presser should be posted shortly. I believe Wawro interjected “so all day to day” after the long list and McD concurred but I can’t recall exactly how it was all phrased. After milano and dequans cart-level injuries he said “does not look good” the day after. He did not say that for Bernard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakAttack Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 4 hours ago, Big Turk said: Doesn't mean they won't have guys drop like flies during the game tho as we have seen the last few weeks... Players are always overly optimistic about their ability to play...it's the trainers that sometimes need to "save players from themselves" in those ways. Likely would have been a prime candidate to re-injure during the game if he played. The extra rest and treatments should allow for much lower chances of that. I never see that happen with them. Have you? I agree that it should happen from time to time; every team goes through it once in a while, but they do not. And when someone does go down, they are back in a series or two. Rashee Rice went down against Miami and was back in a couple series. Meanwhile, Miami must have had at least 3-4 players go down during the game. On a side note, the fact that I found myself passionately rooting for Miami in that game was a realization of how deep my hatred for KC has become 😆 So admittedly, that factors into my bitterness on this subject, but either way, it remains a fact. Since Mahomes entered the league, I don't remember KC dealing with any "significant" injuries on their entire team in the playoffs except for Honey Badger. And the fact that it's just ONE GUY over 7 playoff runs is just.... 🤦♂️ forget it 8 minutes ago, WhitewalkerInPhilly said: Word from reporters, so it wasn't just a fever dream That is AWESOME news on Bernard.

BillsSbSoon Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Taron being out would be a huge loss, it’s still possible he could get cleared in time though. There were a couple of guys that got concussions this year and had short turnarounds and then played less than a week later. So it can happen Edited January 16 by BillsSbSoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatloaf63 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 2 hours ago, ScottLaw said: Really depends on the type of tear. Range of motion can be really inhibited with some tears where the meniscus gets caught and locks the knee in which case he would need surgery. I had that, along with ACL certain motions with cause the piece to flip up, i’d have to push the knee straight to pop it back in.🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 4 hours ago, HappyDays said: Here's the update I got on a few of the injuries suffered yesterday: -Spector is totally fine, will have no issues. -Benford has a small tear in his meniscus but may be able to play through it. TBD -Bernard I got less clarity on. My source believes it is a high ankle sprain, but not 100% sure since they were still testing it as of when my source got the information. TBD on if he can definitely return this year or what the return time would look like but thankfully it appears he avoided a truly serious injury. I have no update on Taron Johnson, or the players that were out against the Steelers. I'll pass along any further updates if I receive them. Couple updates: -Sam Martin has a grade 2 hamstring strain. He was shot up at halftime of the Steelers game just to be able to execute his punts in the 2nd half, but that is a temporary solution before the swelling sets in. Unlikely he will be available on Sunday. -Spector may have what's called a "transverse process fracture" in his back (someone more medically educated than me can maybe explain what this is) which is just a pain management issue. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
