billsfan in n.h Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 he will be fine.he can use the cast as a club.illegal object as gordon solie used to say
3rdand12 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 agreed. we are gonna need this kid. A true 34 nose, and from all reports has been performing well in camp. Both he and Carrington are guys i have hope to be consistent and also have some big plays this year
BUFFALOTONE Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Shhh, didn't you know this guys a bust already? We don't need him anyways.
Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 “I think it just got caught in Wood’s shoulder pads,” Troup told Buffalobills.com. “I went to long arm him and I couldn’t really tell when it happened. I just went back to the sideline and I just felt the pain. I thought I may have jammed a finger or something, but they told me I had to go get it x-rayed.” Here's a link: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Troup-has-cracked-bone-in-hand/fd78720f-05b9-44dc-a4ad-b4d8e8132fa0
DrDawkinstein Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Not too bad, shouldnt miss much time for a little hand bone. Not like he's a QB
eball Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Sounds like he'll be able to practice and play, and the cast will be off before the regular season starts. Dodged a bullet there.

Zulu Cthulhu Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 BUST. Obviously a bust along with all our other draft picks this year and last. Gailey? Dumbass. Nix? Hillbilly. They don't know sh*t about football. Tim Tebow? Oh he'll be awesome just give him time. 3-4 years should be enough.
billsfan89 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 A bit concerning they should shut him down for 7-10 days and then bring him back slowly. They should be very careful about this don't want it to get anyworse. Also if he could wear a club on his hand and hit Tom Brady in the face with it it would be awesome.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 See more Jasper? I wouldn't mind. Just showed my Pats buddy the Jasper workout video and his jaw hung open the entire length. PTR

Thanks for the diagnosis, doc. Do you really think Chan is a complete moron? They'll do what they think is needed (and recommended by actual team doctors) to have Troup ready to play on 9/11.
aussiebills Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 When i saw Troup cracks a bone I thought it was like a broken leg, but broken hand, he will play against KC
Dorkington Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 It'll be annoying for him, but at the same time, he might adapt and learn some new moves to balance it. Also... maybe it'll give Jasper some more time/opportunity to learn Really could end up being an odd silver lining.
Captain Caveman Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Haven't seen any updates on who's taking his place. Is KW back at NT, or is Jasper in with the 1st team now?
drinkTHEkoolaid Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I'm hoping he has a big year in his development and this could be a setback...
3rdand12 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 It'll be annoying for him, but at the same time, he might adapt and learn some new moves to balance it. Also... maybe it'll give Jasper some more time/opportunity to learn Really could end up being an odd silver lining. That kind of optimism is revolting and weak.Troup was developing his hand work very well was the report from Chan or some Dee coach. So of course he broke his new found hands. Very Buffalo Billsish. He will play hurt this season and again not reach his potential. Hold on, i am going to need to work on my pessimisms and bashing. I m not ready yet. I have a lot of hope for Troup to succeed for us..He's another good kid on our team.
Doc Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 The good news is that Troup practiced today with a cast, and wants to play this weekend. But the coaches likely won't let him, for obvious reasons. He'll be fine.
