No one outside of the facility knows the real severity of his injury but turf toe can sideline most athletes for MONTHS if not the season.

A good friend of ours (played at Georgia & later with the Giants) was telling us some horror stories about his TT. So many ligaments involved, so many moving parts, then boom it rears it's ugly head again.

I'd be shocked to see Michael on the field anytime soon in 2022.

There are three grades of turf toe injury. Grade one has a short 2-3 week turnaround. Grade two is 4-6 weeks. Neither of these require surgery. Grade three requires surgery and is the one that can end a season unless is occurs early. The latter is what Penning had and he's supposed getting close to being able to begin practice.

If Thomas had anything more severe than grade two he would have been placed on IR. I'd be shocked if he doesn't return within the next couple of weeks.


Dunnells is saying that he thinks Thomas may even return to practice this week. We'll see. It is still well within the timeframe for recovery.

So Predictable!!

"THE GUIDO SHUFFLE"

1. Chastise posters for what they write because you don't agree.

REMEMBER?

2. Turn around and do exactly what you tell others not to do.

"Not shocked at all." Should I be?" (SEE #3 )

You are one very odd individual.

I was not shocked for a couple of reasons. First, after 65 years on this planet nothing truly shocks me anymore, regardless of using the literary phrase. Second, the fact that they finally DID place him on IR while sharing the fact that he had dislocated the toe instead of suffering a more mild injury implied earlier changed the parameters and made the decision clearer.

How about a heavy dose of Rashid as the #2 K.

FACTS. Tell me this Who Dat ... on two touches, Rashid has 2 TDs & averages over 40 yards per catch. Any reason why we aren't getting playmakers more involved?

Same goes for Taysom Hill. I just don't understand why Pete is not playing these guys more in 2nd half of games.

Utilize them like Patterson & Debo. Shaheed could be the truth but we won't know unless he gets more targets.

The offensive game plan needs to change & become more creative.

INSANITY

But I digress ...
