That MRSA is not gone.

Good to hear and I hope he plays.

Play. No excuses when you get rolled up by Jordan, Hicks and Jenkins

Grubbs needs to remind us of why we don't need him. The Bucs haven't gotten much out of Nicks so far.........let's keep it that way.

I know, seriously! If I were the coach, I'd be planning to roll up in the team bus with everybody already in cleats and pads, ready to go straight to the field, like a high school game. And then straight back out to the bus after the final gun. They have safe showers and clean places to hold postgame interviews back at the hotel. That MRSA stuff is nasty and could derail a team's whole season.

Prophylactic injections of Vancomycin night before and upon departure...

And you know some offensive lineman is going wipe/snot his forearm before the first play...

Agree- 'practiced' does not mean he is in any kind of shape

Probably smoke and mirrors. I would think they have to get him back and ready to go and that would take a week or two. Maybe I am wrong

According to the Mayo Clinic:
Risk factors for CA-MRSA
Participating in contact sports. MRSA can spread easily through cuts and abrasions and skin-to-skin contact.

Maybe they use him as a way to open up holes if no one wants to touch/block him due to the infections potential...
