Skoobydum Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Bills head coach Chan Gailey said after practice that the injury that’s kept Ed Wang out of practice Monday, may also require surgery. “Ed has something that they may have to operate on and it might take him out for quite a few weeks,” said Gailey. ”We’ll have to wait and see what the doctors say about that. That decision will be made tomorrow.” Wang was out at practice this evening with a wrap on his right calf. No word as to whether that is in the injury that could require surgery. Gailey did say this is not related to his ankle injury suffered in the spring. http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2010/08/02/w...t-need-surgery/
BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Batten also has a "fairly significant" shoulder injury. http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2010/08/02/b...miss-some-time/ The only amusing part of all of this is in Chris Brown's rush to get this news posted on his BB.com blog, he left in some pretty good misspellings. “Danny hit his shoulder nad it’s a fairly significant injury and we’re going to have to look and see how long that takes for him to get back,” Gailey said. Poor guy, I wouldnt want anyone to ever hit my shoulder nad.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well that's football. But it seems we had just as many dinged-up players at Camp Jauron. PTR
BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well that's football. But it seems we had just as many dinged-up players at Camp Jauron. PTR Its the lack of depth that is scaring the hell out of me right now. Not so much at LB but our Tackle position right now is god-awful, regardless of who starts. I know Wang was a rookie, but that now leaves us with Jamon Meredith and Nick Hennessey as our primary backups. Ugh. I dont know what Levi Jones did to make people think he can't play in the NFL, maybe he re-injured his knee in the offseason and thats why everyone is staying away from the guy, but he was Washington's best O-Lineman over the last half of 2009 and has experience at LT. I'd at least bring him in for a visit and a physical, I"m amazed he's still a FA. At best, he'll start. At worst, he's depth.
UpperDeck Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 "Wang might need surgery" Skooby, sorry to hear it. That sounds painful dude.
MattyT Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 This sucks. I was really hoping Wang would make a push to start...but that would require significant reps. BTW, do we EVER get good news any more?
Skoobydum Posted August 3, 2010 Author Posted August 3, 2010 "Wang might need surgery" Skooby, sorry to hear it. That sounds painful dude. I knew I should of wore my hat that night, LOL.
UpperDeck Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 This will be a setback but its not like he would have had a huge impact in the early part of the season anyway. Lets just hope he isn't out too long.
saundena Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well that's football. But it seems we had just as many dinged-up players at Camp Jauron. PTR ....and probably just about as many as other teams had, currently have, and/or will have.
Nuncha Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 ....and probably just about as many as other teams had, currently have, and/or will have. THE WANG IS SOFT....sorry had to say it...He is going to be injury prone I'm afraid....
Bills#23Iowa Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 We need to just trade Schobel for a backup LT that's all the OT guys on the roster are anyway backups.
saundena Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 THE WANG IS SOFT....sorry had to say it...He is going to be injury prone I'm afraid.... We've all heard the term limp D**K. Well, what if Wang hurts his leg and begins walking with a limp. ... or if he gets bruised
GaryPinC Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Well that's football. But it seems we had just as many dinged-up players at Camp Jauron. PTR You're right. Let's fire the trainers and S&C coaches, it must be their fault.
billsfan in n.h Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 it is too early to start raiding practice squad players,oh yea there arent any yet,hopefully chan doesnt come out and say"our wang is broken"
nick in* england Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 This only reinforces our need to pick up a fairly expendable but reasonable guy who can play LT for us. Think Langston Walker.
H2o Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 I remember Wang having some injury issues while @ VT also. I know that one time was an ACL. As far as the "injury bug" goes? It's biting alot of teams. I honestly didn't expect much from Batten or Wang this year, but hopefully our starters can stay healthy through camp. There are still some experienced FA guys that could serve as depth if we need to go that route.
