Jarius Byrd to IR

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Byrd injury sucks. A lot of posters have mentioned Marcus Ball's name but my bigger question is if he's healthy? I don't think he has been active in any games thus far....

Ball has been practicing this week, so I guess he is

Maybe he doesn't want to stink it up in front his dad on Sunday in the Superdome?

So, we have to pay Byrd even though he may never play another game for us? Wow! Then what insurance do teams have that players won't fake an injury? Apparently, some injuries are only diagnose-able by reporting of symptoms.

That's an age old problem. Teams have doctors to try to diagnose problems but you're right, some problems like lower back pain, whiplash and foot pain, many times, don't show signs of damage.

The Portland Trailblazers said privately for years that Bill Walton was faking his foot injuries.

They have injury clauses in all contracts to protect teams from just that. He will still get paid something, but it won't be 54 mil.

Looks like Bush is coming out of the bush this Sunday !

Re: Jarius Byrd to IR

Plantar fasciitis ain't no joke; it is hard to run and sometimes hard to walk. I got it in both feet and I ain't got flat feet. I just ran a whole bunch over 2 decades.

And we were getting ready to see what Sunseri could do. So here's your chance, kid.

Re: Jarius Byrd to IR

With Byrd going down who comes up on the 53 man roster?

Also, after some though, letting SJB take over at CB for White may not be a bad idea. White could slide in and play the nickle role and SJB would get his shot to prove it.
