Hopefully the injuries remain minor and the guys can return healthy for the actual season.

Seems like the whole team is laying on their leg.

Not good at all... he wasn't as good as he could've been last year because of a leg injury that slowed him down all year... hope he can overcome this quickly.

Nice thought but disagree. I think any of our guys going down with a knee injury should stay the heck down until they receive so much help they place absolutely zero additional stress on their knee.

Think of how many times you've seen a guy walk off on his own power only to hear later he completely tore his ACL. I believe partial tears became worse or complete tears as they stressed it during that proud walk.

Like sand in the gears...rub, rub, saw, rip. Stay down already and heal a few days/weeks/months earlier for it.
