Definitely trending in the wrong direction. Injury may be more serious than they are letting on.
Sounds like he missed practice again, given they are coming off the bye it is concerning and this could even be a mulitple week thing.
Nah, if it were more serious he would have been re-scheduled for a MRI at some point. The fact that he didn't need it originally speaks volumes. Even relatively mild soft tissue injuries can linger, though.
What do you think now?
Seems like Foster really wasn't even close to playing this week.
We heard a report Foster did not have a MRI. We do not know if that is true. O'Brien is clearly trying to hide the true severity of the injury here.
That it's somewhere in between a grade 1 and 3 sprain. He wasn't able to shake it off in a week but I also don't believe he tore the muscle off of the bone like Ball/Fjax.
Remember the report that he didn't have an MRI came from Ian Rapoport who has to be the least hooked in "NFL expert". He was the same guy who reported Gio Bernard was going to be "OK" when every other reporter was reporting Gio would probably be out.
At this point no info coming from Ian should be taken as reliable.Arian probably has had an MRI.
Yeah, he was also incorrect on Jimmy Graham, he's been all around pretty ####ty this year. Let's say he did have the MRI though, do you think O'Brien is withholding the info that Foster is slated to miss a month+ with a high grade groin tear? I suppose it's possible but I feel like it's more plausible that he's just slowly coming back from a less serious injury
well, next week will be 3 weeks since the injury and if he misses that it will be 4 weeks. so its pretty much gonna be around a month of recovery time. id say hes at best 5050 to play next week.
and for the haters, it turns out i was indeed quite incorrect about his odds of missing this week. 65% chance to sit was obv way too low and it shoulda been around 85. still hoping for 5050 for next week but im an optimist.
