This guy seems to have more credibility than someone calling themself 'the thigh doctor'. 🤔

 

I think this dude used to be the team doc for the Chargers

I am sure Brandon Beane is on the phone right now willing to give up a 6th rounder

Yes, he did.

I'm probably in the minority here, but when we lose a player for the season (likely, in this case), it saps all of the joy from a big win.

Oliver was playing his best ball this season. Best I've ever seen him play. This just sucks and takes almost all of the excitement out of a 40-9 win for me.

 

Yeah, yeah I'm the Debbie Downer. It is what it is.

 

If KC has a similar injury to Mahomes, Chris Jones, McDuffie or Kelce, I will feel 100x better actually, but when does that ever happen?

Oliver is done for the season. Maybe he gets back if we make a deep playoff run. It’s a classic mechanism of injury for a biceps tendon tear and there’s not much else that can go wrong in the elbow. He reached out to grab a RB while he was going down and it popped. If it was Milano, he’d pop his pec. Just another in a long line of Glass players we’ve unfortunately signed to big bucks. Milano, Oliver, Bernard. The All Glass Team. Frustrating.

No 6th next year.  He does have 2 7ths.

That totally sucks for Oliver but now it's time to earn your draft status young buck or anyone getting elivated. 

 

The only one to earn their Draft status left on the Roster is Deone Walker. He's been doing that. But he doesn't play Oliver's position. He lines up at 1T. 

 

When Jones returns (whenever that will be), maybe they start Jones and move Walker over to 3T (as he has flexibility). But until then it's Ogunjobi at 3 and Walker at 1. God forbid either get hurt. All we have is Practice Squad DT's underneath them right now.

Jackson Hawes is as well.

Does he play Defensive Tackle?

Back in the early '90's, Bills players would be stretching on the field, before a game. A LOT of stretching, at that! 

Injuries are (of course) a part of the game. That being said, I've been very critical of the strength & conditioning staff, because I don't think that they do enough to minimize player injuries before they can happen.

Was he the one that punctured Tyrod's lung?

I believe he was. You would be surprised how often that happens though. I'm a nurse and I've seen it happen many, many times on routine thoracentesis'
