Nobody ****ing knows. It was for undisclosed reasons. Surprise surprise. Probably another trumped up charge.

Was wondering the same thing. The link don't say.

I thought I read somewhere he failed a drug test? Not sure though...

TXGSP · 08-20-2012, 05:20 PM

I thought a drug test failure was a 4 game suspension.

Danno · 08-20-2012, 05:23 PM

Ramon's are notorious for failing drug tests.

What the hell?!? So Lofton's going to be questionable for a little while with that high ankle sprain (which is always a nagging injury that lasts ages) and now his main back-up is out of the mix for a bit. Who the hell plays MLB come week 1 if Lofton's still not 100%??

Ok just found out that Hawthorn is injured too and had surgery. Anyone else know about this? I somehow missed it. We just might as well not have a LB corps.

ChrisXVI · 08-20-2012, 05:38 PM

Yep... Every LB we brought in to re-vamp the position is hurt now. All we can hope for is that Lofton can be back by week 1. I'm hoping that Casillas can stay healthy enough to fill in for Hawthorne at WLB if he needs to.

I edited your other post to link where Vitt said in conference today that....

Linebacker David Hawthorne also missed practice today with a meniscus tear and will not play Saturday against the Texans. Said Vitt, "the diagnosis on David is encouraging. He hurt it early in the game and played on it." Vitt said he thinks Hawthorne also has a good chance to be back in time for the regular season opener.

Also....

Vitt also hinted that wide receiver Andy Tanner may not play again this preseason after suffering a sprained ankle.

My memory isn't what it used to be, but I don't remember everyone freaking out as much in previous years about minor training camp injuries.

It was practically suicide watch 2 weeks ago about our CB's, now LB's.

I believe the only serious injury we had was Chamberlain, who was a likely back-up/ST player anyway.
