Of course he's hurt. It's clearly written in his contract to miss significant time every year.

Well pshaw!

I saw the Mister Glass reference. Maybe Bruce Willis can come out & play for us!

We need two players on the left side of the line. I don't believe that we will resign him. I like Armstead but availability trumps ability. That's tough to find in one year with limited resources(no second round draft pick). We also have quite a few players to resign or find their replacement as well.

Armstead is signed thru 2021. He will likely play out his contract here, and re-sign relatively cheaply

I get the frustration, but I think people are too hard on him. He's a big man, agile for his size. It's not like hes faking it.

It's frustrating he's hurt, but stuff happens. O-linemen have been particularly fragile all around the league this year. Get better soon TA.

I, for one, don't think he's faking it. But he is way too fragile. Being injury prone isn't just bad luck, it's also a bit of clumsiness. Poor body control leads to awkward falls and injuries. Which is exactly what happened yesterday. Sometimes you can't avoid it, but it's ridiculous how often he's hurt.

Cow fans sort of feel that way about Tyron Smith. All Pro tackle but he too has missed a lot of meaningful games due to injury over his career.

Unfortunate.

Unfortunate.

What position does La'el Collins play again?

I think he hurt himself trying to avoid plummeting on top of Brees. Good job big fella for not injuring your QB. Too bad he got hurt in the process. Get well SOON, your team needs you.
