CB Damian Swann placed on Reserve, Injured

Looks like it's down to Cortland Finnegan vs Brian Dixon for that fifth CB spot...

Like I said in the roster thread... Rest up Swann, we could use you further down the road. He'd be a good candidate to be our IR player we activate.

I'm leaning towards Finnegan over Dixon. Lasco's special teams prowess renders Dixon expendable. Finnegan has that dog in him and will bring the nasty to our secondary.

Well darn. I like Swann and think he can become really good. However it might be a blessing in disguise if it gives his brain a longer period of time to recover from last years concussions.

I said earlier in a previous post I didn't count him being able to make it all season. I really like his play when he's able to play though.

I never was a fan of Swann. I always felt that if PJ had been healthy last year Swann may not have made last years 53 man squad. But I wish him the best of luck getting healthy and coming back next year to compete.

Crawley and Harris have played well in his absence too

So was it mentioned what the injury was? Was it concussion related again?

Not too upset. I saw this coming and pretty much figured. Hell of a lot of heart but his body doesn't hold up.
