Training camp injuries list?

Spike said:
Ravens TE Crockett Gillmore will undergo meniscus surgery and is out indefinitely.

The extent of Gillmore's meniscus tear won't be known until doctors look beneath the skin, but it would be a surprise if he were ready for Week 1. The Ravens did sign Larry Donnell on Sunday, but they may have to look into free agent Gary Barnidge as well. At least in terms of injury luck, no NFL team has had a worse offseason than Baltimore. Maxx Williams has reportedly been struggling in his return from knee surgery.

This is interesting to me. 9 out of 10 times NFL players elect to do a 'C' cut and cut out the tear, so they can return to playing in 4 weeks. Big Ben has done this twice in his career. The repair surgery is better for the long term health of the knee, but it's a much longer recovery time. Either the player is interested in his long term health, or the tear is the most severe I have heard about, that it can't physically be cut out.
 
hopefully nothing serious on Conner.
 
Ravens - WR Breshad Perriman left Tuesday's practice early with what appeared to be a hamstring injury.

Perriman reportedly pulled up while running a route. He stayed on the field for a while to stretch his right leg, but he ended up going inside with a trainer. Coach John Harbaugh said the issue is not serious after practice, but any setback is notable considering Perriman's injury history

I'm really thinking about banning that web site from this board. All they do is openly steal other people's work and steal word for word and post click bait links so that you'll click on their site so they make money off all the ads.

And I don't mean to direct that at you, Ron. That site just makes my blood boil with their click bait posts on Facebook. Unfollowed them. Somehow they have 1 million followers.

Anyway, here is where they stole their **** from. A real web site.

By Gerry Dulac / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

The Steelers received some good news about rookie running back James Conner of Pitt, who injured his left shoulder on Sunday and had his arm in a sling the past two days.

The injury is considered minor and Conner could return to practice later this week.

Meantime, cornerback Senquez Golson, a No. 2 draft choice in 2015 who has missed each of the past two seasons with injuries, will be out longer after injuring his hamstring on Sunday. Conner and Golson were each sent to Pittsburgh on Monday to be evaluated, coach Mike Tomlin said.

This is one player many here TRUELY are rooting for, I being one of them. I hope he is just a good rest away from returning and NO future problems. I think he has a very good chance at an NFL career if he chooses.



Salute the nation

No offense taken. I won't link them any more. It just shows up in my feed more than the P-G does, plus I'm still used to the death penalty for posting P-G links. Old habits are hard to break.
 
They just drive me nuts.

24/7 sports headline - "Steelers add veteran FA"

People click in... "Steelers sign journeymen BW Webb.

No names or anything. Always trying to get you to click. The one headline "the Steelers have the best chance to sign Revis"

And its based off odds from Vegas.
 
Golson can't afford to miss a couple weeks. Feel bad for the kid but this may be it for him unless no one else steps up.
 
Conner sprained A/C joint, day to day per Will Graves
 
How's Carnell holding up? ;)
 
Apparently Ben hurt his ankle and stood out the rest of practice. Dobbs too all first team snaps afterwards. Link to follow.

Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger: Hurts ankle Thursday
RotowireAug 3 2017, 19:17
Roethlisberger injured his right ankle Thursday and was unable to finish practice, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Analysis:

After taking a low hit during team drills, Roethlisberger walked with his well-known limp to the back of the field, but he stuck around to watch the remainder of practice. Head coach Mike Tomlin later downplayed the ailment, calling Roethlisberger "great" and terming the hit "nothing." Clearly, Roethlisberger's boss doesn't believe the issue is a concern, meaning any absence in the next few days could just be a precautionary measure. With No. 2 QB Landry Jones (abdomen) also sidelined, rookie Josh Dobbs took on the remaining reps with the first-team offense Thursday.

apparently Dobbs did very well, I'm really surprised even acknowledging it's just training camp
 
Good for Dobbs,......does he have the potential to replace Ben in a meaningful way??? I take Dobbs as more of a back up to unseat Laundry.

I think it is that he doesnt like answering tge questions but Tomlin certainly downplays any Ben injury.
 
Ben broke his leg?
