I would imagine, with the very short week, just about anyone with a non-trivial injury missing any time is likely not going to play on Thursday.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Hats off to Njoku.... he stepped up in a way he hasn't since being here.
It wasn't enough to matter in the end, but he took care of business on his end.

... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

Players can come off injured reserve after three weeks. But that is a big blow for Njoku’s contract year.

Glad its only a few weeks, but still sucks

I have read nothing that says it will only be a few weeks. He is eligible to come back in three weeks but it hasn’t been said that he will.

As soon as I posted my last reply Ian Rapoport said it’s a minor injury and he is expected back in 3 to 4 weeks

Surprised Wills wasn’t a DNP

Conklin hurt too. We need a new strength and conditioning team

I understand that the injury bug can hit any team. However when you run a camp cupcake, the odds are going to be higher that this will happen.

Hopefully we get some more good news with Phillips and Njoku Doesn't "still being evaluated ", usually mean they are waiting for the swelling to go down so they can take a mri? Either that or the player is getting a second opinion

I mentioned this in another thread... if we can get out of this game relatively unscathed health-wise, the longer break could do wonders for our injury list.

Bad news if Conklin can't play. Carlos Dunlap ate Hubbard's lunch last year.

Greedy Williams has been out more games than he has played I believe. I don't see Conklin being someone who would miss time with a minor injury. I would imagine Landry is going to be limited in practice for most of the year. His surgery was not a minor thing.

I think a lot of our O-line injury issues are mitigated by Geno Atkins being out. They still have talent on that line, but a major piece missing makes playing them much simpler.
Plus, the guys we have should still be able to run the ball... just sayin.

Greedy seems to be one of “those” guys who spends more time in the tub

Sometimes you can't even sleep, much less tackle somebody. i don’t doubt it ... but some people get hurt more easily. He seems to be one of them. Whether it’s from technique, genetics, or whatever

Whether it’s from technique, genetics, or whatever It's a pretty limited sample size, and it was a weird off-season. It stinks, but injuries happen. It's hard to tell if he's injury prone or if something happened that was likely to injury anyone.

Dave's response is dead on...shoulder injuries are painful and it can take longer to recover and rehab them than other types of injuries.
Greedy is 6-2 and listed as 185 lbs. The best thing Greedy can do to protect himself from injury, GET BIGGER.
Putting on muscle around the joints helps to protect the body from injury. Greedy is only 22 yrs old and he will develop his body if he puts in the time and work needed to improve his body.
Using proper techniques and being smart about how he plays the position can help.
