Also, is Aaron Williams out for the season? What's the update on him

no, he is on Short term IR and can come back as soon as the Eagles game. If cleared.

 

Edit: Update

 

@SalSports: Update on Aaron Williams from Rex: Progressing, but still stiff. Hopefully back by end of season (eligible to return to games on Dec 13)

Kyle Williams is very good at penetrating OL forcing teams to adjust schemes usually trying to put a faster player on him; with "big stuff" they tend to double team but it is a different method of containing him which is why when both are in there and healthy it is a very good interior DL. Bryant is good but not on Kyle's level yet.

 

One thing mentioned in news reports is how his leadership is missing; it does not appear to be something preventing him from being on sideline unlike some injuries where they want to keep players off sideline in case they aggravate injury

So WHY?

I think it should be clearly stated that the fact that our defense has stayed on track in Kyle's absence has everything to do with Corbin Bryant's stepping up, and nothing to do with Kyle not being talented, and therefore replaceable.

He will be back for playoffs

i could see that

and? He's been out since the middle of the game in week 6. The DL has been together for only 4 out of 9 games this year.

For a 4 man unit playing in the NFL - that's probably about normal

I agree with this statement.

I miss Kyle though.

Love to watch his hustle!

Why waste the roster spot? It makes no sense, He is expected to be back.

Bryant is better at holding up blockers. Bryant is JAG but when Kyle has been bad in his career it's been when he isn't being allowed to pick a gap and attack it. That's the reality of this D. IMO the worst fit in this scheme of all the starters and most likely starter to not be back(along with Aaron Williams and his chronic neck issues).

No team is completely healthy after 10 weeks, the Pats will be without Edelman and Collins. Injuries are no excuse. The Steelers have won games with Vick And Landry Jones starting. Good teams rise above it, bad team make excuses.
