Week 8 Injury Thread - If You See Something, Say Something (1 Viewer)

We talked about having one big Injury thread vs a new thread each week here and most folks said they'd rather have a new thread each week. So here we are!

I'll start one each Thursday.

A couple of things to please keep in mind that would be really helpful if everyone can do.

1. Please use the players real name when you're posting. And please be specific as you can about the injury. If you don't know, say you don't know.

In other words, "A-Rob just got blown up!!!!!" sucks. "Allen Robinson in on the ground with what looks like a knee injury" is way better.

2. Please let us know the source and share a link if possible. If you're watching the game and saw the injury, please say that. If you read it on Twitter, please say that and give a link. If you got a Sleeper Alert, please say that and click through on Sleeper to the source that's usually a tweet and share that link.

3. Please let us know what happened after the injury. This is super important. Was he:

Carted off

Helped off with assistance

Walked off with a limp or something

4. Please update if they come back to the game or sidelines. Hopefully it's a "He's back in the game and looks ok". Or it may be "He's on the sideline without his helmet". That kind of thing.

You get the idea.

 
D Hopkins is on the sidelines questionable to return.  ReAggrevated the Hammy that had him questionable for this game

Tonyan went out with a calf or hamstring injury.  Was limping pretty badly heading down the tunnel...

 
Seemed like Chase Edmonds was holding his shoulder after a hit on the last drive. Anyone else see that? 

 
Not INJ, but surprise (breaking) news... Calvin Ridley is INACTIVE week 8 for personal reasons.

 
Derrick Henry on the sideline with his cleat off, getting checked out. Walked off field gingerly. Testing out ankle

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet

Jameis Winston with an apparent ACL injury, as well as potential damage to the MCL. A frustrating win for New Orleans.

 
Derrick Henry is undergoing an MRI to see the extent of the damage to his foot.

Potential season ender is the early word, hope that's not true. 

 
Crazy thing is how do you keep playing through a season-ending injury?
Funny thing is that I’m actually sitting with my daughter at her post op appointment for surgery on her foot. She tore a tendon in a soccer game and played the rest of the game in it. She’s out 4 months.  It’s very possible.

Wasn't there a NE RB that played on a broken leg circa 2002, give or take?
I decided to google and this one is my favorite...

Larry Wilson, a HOF'er who played safety through the 1960's, once intercepted a pass after breaking both wrists and having casts on both hands!

 
After commercial ESPN announcer just said something about Kadarius not on the field for 2nd & goal in the 4th because of a hand injury.

ETA: left hand Heading to the locker room.

TMZ reports Henry Ruggs was involved in a "serious car accident" in Las Vegas early Tuesday morning.

Per TMZ Sports, 22-year-old Ruggs was involved in a wreck in the central Las Vegas Valley area around 3:40 AM. It's still unclear what Ruggs' condition is, though local newscasts are reporting there was at least one fatality in the crash. We will update this story as it develops.
