Sean Lee possible heading to (1 Viewer)

Is this a question or a statement? Any sources saying anything like this? I see nothing but he will try to play with a cast likely.

 
Terrible thread title. Add a "?" for now

(Rotoworld) Cowboys ILB Sean Lee will try to play through his dislocated left wrist.

Analysis: Lee visited a hand and wrist specialist on Monday, and hopes to avoid surgery. An operation could end his season, but the expectation for now is that Lee will play with a cast on the wrist. The Cowboys remain hopeful because backup Keith Brooking has clearly lost a step and was exposed in Sunday night's loss.
 
Lee (wrist) will not play Sunday against Seattle and could miss more games as well, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Sucks, cause now I have to put Rocky McIntosh in. Woodley and Lee getting hurt in a 3 hour span hampered my LBs. At least I have D'Qwell Jackson.

 
Now they're reporting that some doctors are telling him to undergo season ending surgery while others are suggesting he cast it up and play. Decision hasn't been made yet. - this also coming from ESPN's Schefter.

 
This sucks. He was killing it for me too. I already dropped him. With a cast on his wrist, whether he comes back or not, I would hate to take a chance.

 
it must not be as bad as Urlacher/Dallas Clark dislocation recently b/c it seemed they were immediately ruled out for the year and had to have a procedure done for it to properly heal. or maybe specialist know more about this type of injury and recovery now to allow him to play for the time being

If Sean were to go on IR i'd say Bradie James could jump maybe back upto LB3 range. if Lee plays hurt he may still be a decent matchup LB4 going forward. in either case i'd guess Bradie gets somewhat of a increase in snapcount.

Even if Brooking and James both suck (mostly in coverage), they're going to play a lot and from an IDP standpoint they are both going to see an increase in tackles. Are they both playing full time now, with a little Bruce Carter sprinkled in? If Carter surprises, which of those two will he take playing time away from? I'm assuming Lee is out in this scenario, which is the case this weekend and possibly the rest of the year.

Agreed. For one, there's always the chance he plays a quarter and they decide to take him out. The other thing is that a lot of his value was from his pass defense--passes defended and interceptions. While he could still potentially get some passes defended, I don't see him getting any more INT's with a cast on one hand.
 
He practiced yesterday and today so it looks like he's going to be starting this weekend. He's got a cast on his wrist though, I haven't seen how big it is but I assume the chances of him continuing to get a bunch of INTs like he was doing with that on is slim to none. Bramel or anyone got any idea if we should expect him to only be on the field for running downs?

 
The cast he was wearing was a clubby, bulky cast.. looked like Mega Man.

That said, the INT value drops WAY down, but he can still defend passes and he was the leading tackler on that team, so if you're in a tackle heavy league, he might still be a viable option if his hand holds up.
