Brandon Lloyd injury (1 Viewer)

Rotoworld saying it was his hip. Pretty big difference between a tweaked hip and a broken clavicle.http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/449/brandon-lloyd
That's interesting...it really looked like he landed hard on his shoulder...
 
Who would pick up the slack? Deion Branch? We won't know the extent of Lloyd's separated shoulder until mid way thru the 2nd Q of the next game so maybe we should just concentrate on who fills the void.

I would go with Edelman (just posted this in the WW thread)...he practiced this week so the guess is he will be back next week...he was pretty involved in the O prior to his injury and actually looked pretty good...
 
Watched it live. Looked like a broken collarbone or separated shoulder type of injury. He went fully extended, made the catch but was out of bounds. I didn't see a hip at all.

I don't envision him playing Lloyd's spot. I would think Branch would be more equipped to run those routes. I see Edelman more in the slots, middle of the field, underneath, but maybe I'm wrong.
 
Rotoworld is now acknowledging that it is a shoulder injury. Their game charter must be blind...

The Boston Globe believes that Brandon Lloyd's late-game injury against the Seahawks was to Lloyd's left shoulder.

Our game charter thought it was to Lloyd's hip. The Patriots say nothing about injuries aside from listing them on the weekly injury report, so don't expect any concrete details until we see that on Wednesday.

Someone tweeted this after the game --

Just watched the replay of 4th down..Brandon Lloyd was back on the field, so it looks like he avoided serious injury (i.e break, separation)

Came up on a search for Brandon Lloyd, don't know how credible this is.

ETA - here is a conversation on twitter about this --

@NEPD_Loyko I believe i seen him back on the left side on that 4th down play.

@TalkOfThe_Town yoru absolutely right.. I just watched the replay.. Lloyd was on the field for the 4th down play

(RotoWire) Lloyd said Wednesday that he's "fine" after leaving Week 6's game briefly with what appeared to be a shoulder issue, the Boston Herald reports. Analysis: Don't be surprised to see Lloyd's name on the team's practice participation/injury report, but that fact that he is addressing the issue at all is a good sign within the framework of the way the Patriots typically handle injury reporting.
 
Any updates?

While clearly not a serious injury (as far as anyone can tell) do we know what is up as of today (Friday 10/19)

 
It will figure that he blows up this week because I am 99% benching him. He's been my flex but not this week!
