hemma Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 Watching him last Thursday, I had a feeling he'd be out this Sunday. Ankle injuries are common when you wear roller skates and try to block.
bobobonators Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 Again with the trade Glenn posts Glenn is in his prime and the guy is a great LT when healthy. He has started every game the last 3 seasons. Every. Game. He misses some games this year and trade his ass. Ludicrous. 1

Expand Exactly. And its not like very good LT are easily replaceable. Considering we have Wood who is on the wrong side of 30; Incognito who is going to be 35; and then garbage at RG and RT, the thought of trading Glenn may be the single dumbest idea in a while.

We can all put our opinions out there but none of us knows what goes on behind closed doors. We don't know his medical reports or the staffs analysis on how they feel the injury is.

Expand I don't know, it would seem more of an individual deal but you can say players get injured, that's a fact. how they recover/come back is more on the extent/type of injury that varies. my point, not really knowing the extent of his but being feet/ankles at that position can not be good obviously and also hurts the team if you continue to be injured. such is the case here where this will be his 3rd missed game. my main point is what good is talent if you can not stay healthy?

Except for 2014, when he missed half the season, he has missed very little time in his seven years in Jax despite playing a highly injury-prone position (LB).

SaviorPeterman Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 I'm still trying to figure out exactly what happened to Glenn between the Raiders and Jets game because he literally went from one of the best performances of his career to one of the worse. Either way McD values guys you can depend on a weekly basis and Glenn has had way to many issues the last few years to justify keeping him around beyond this season. Best case we can land a 3rd or 4th round pick for him in a trade during the offseason.

HuSeYiN_NYC Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 On 11/9/2017 at 3:04 PM, BringBackFergy said: I hear ya. I also shut the Jets game off in the 4th quarter. Couldn't enjoy the game after the build up, etc. My point in comparing Luck to say Sammy Watkins (for example) was that Luck had a torn labrum but still went out there and gave it a shot (albeit he played like **** given his injury). That injury affected his ability to throw. Some could argue that Sammy's foot injury limited his ability to run a route effectively but our staff said it was a "pain tolerance issue". Not sure I trust Rex but that's what he was told. Take another example...Ramon Humber broke his hand in the Falcons game and was later seen on the field playing LB. Some players have pain tolerance at a 9-10...some have a tolerance at 5-6. I suppose it isn't criticism of those at the 5-6 level, but more so admiration for a guy who can (still wants to) play at the 9-10 level. Expand I got stabbed in my 20s and took it like a champ. Didn't feel pain til 30 minutes after. But I turn into a little girl if I get a papercut. 1
