They should let you take the hits.

No, EJ at RB is a great idea. He can't play QB but we used a 1st on him. He's gotta be good for camp fodder at least!

Rice had a bad hip injury ,when he was trying to play. He`s healed now.

 

What we do know is that he was a between the tackles runner.

 

Definite step-down in explosiveness from Frank Gore but if he was back to health........

Yeah Rodney Harrison said Ray Rice tried to tough it out,which hurt his game. Couldn`t even get into his car after a game. Took a lot of shots for the pain. He is healed now and eager to play.

I'm not a medical guy, could you elaborate about time frame?

Healing Time

The healing time for a hamstring injury varies. The main type of injuries for hamstrings are pulls and strains. Different degrees of each injury will determine the actual healing time.

Hamstring Injury Grade 1

A grade 1 strain will take about a week of recovery time. A grade 1 strain hurts minimally, there is no pain walking, and motion isn't hindered. But it is imperative that you not play golf or exercise your leg. Increased work and stress can be put on the leg after week one. If you jump into swinging or exercising immediately after the injury, there is a good chance of increased severity.

Hamstring Injury grade 2

A grade 2 hamstring strain will take two to three weeks of recovery for proper healing to occur. Do not allow yourself to put too much stress on the leg during this time because it will just increase the length of recovery time. With a grade 2 strain, you will have pain when walking, constricted range of motion, and tingling and pulling sensations in your leg. Until these symptoms are almost diminished, avoid physical activity.

Hamstring Injury Grade 3

A grade 3 hamstring strain will take three to five weeks for proper recovery. A person with a grade 3 strain may have trouble walking without assistance, i.e., crutches. Also there will heavy swelling in the area of the strain. Do not play golf or perform any activity during this recovery time. If you re-strain the muscle the recovery time wil have to start all over again.

Decreasing Recovery Time

To have the minimum recovery time possible, seek physical therapy. Also, it is important to ice the muscle to reduce swelling and allow blood flow. Any rehab exercises will be beneficial to recovery as long as you don't put too much stress on the leg at first. The quicker you recover the faster you can be back on the golf course in top form.

Hoping its only a Grade 1 but considering that he looked like he needed some assistance from the field its looking like a Grade 2 or 3

Hate playing the JV team vs Colts and Pats, critical AFC home games, due to preseason injuries

Remind me which starters you anticipate missing September due to injury?

Yep. None so far.

 

Amazing that our top five running backs have been hurt and probably all five of them for two weeks or more.
