He's got Contract Ankle. You know it and I know it. And Shady's all washed up, anyway. 2

Can you imagine how exciting draft day would be? Ever more exciting than the most exciting event all year for bills fans???

blacklabel Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 Some of these comments are insane. I hate the way some fans dehumanize these players and act like they should be out there even if their arms are falling off. They're friggin' human beings. They aren't superheroes. Yeah, they get paid a lot of money but getting a fat salary doesn't justify playing while far less than 100%. You're more of a detriment than an asset if you're out there playing hurt because you're not going to be as effective. It's like some people just have no problem speaking so ill of these guys and they always wanna justify by pointing out how much money they make. Or if they aren't performing as well as they can, the name-calling and calls to be cut and kicked out of the league, it's just like, blech. Is that fandom? I don't see it that way. At the end of the day, these guys are all just a bunch of human beings with a really interesting job. They aren't invincible. I dunno, maybe that's just me but I'm not in the habit of degrading any player for any football-related reason. 1
MDH Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 Since it's the same injury shouldn't the topic read: Cordy Glenn's Injury not healed YET.

I dunno, maybe that's just me but I'm not in the habit of degrading any player for any football-related reason. I'm as guilty of doubting some injuries as the next guy. When you have Andrew Luck playing with a shredded shoulder you realize some players have a higher pain tolerance than others (I think it was our own medical staff that said Sammy's foot injury was more of a pain tolerance issue before the surgery). The other thing many of us have experienced is "Jairus Byrd Syndrome" (when he had plantar fasciatis, didn't play but then signed with the Saints, many here were po'd). Then you have Marcel's hammy during the first week of training camp...the list goes on and on.

Nick the Greek Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 Shadys big game against Oakland was compliments of Glenn. We need Glenn healthy to have a great running game.
HOUSE Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 I think you will find he skipped surgery till the off season

There is nothing new here. I thought Glenn had a new injury. But, no, just someone recycling an old story but with a misleading title. Seems like you needed an excuse to start a thread. EXACTLY why they shoulda traded him. Look at you, making strides toward logical thought.

If a player can't stay healthy, it doesn't matter if they are as skilled as Brady, all the talent in the world won't help you sitting on IR Sure seemed healthy vs the Jets!

Glenn has had three DIFFERENT injuries over the past two years. Not one 'chronic condition.' He got a high ankle sprain in the preseason of 2016. He hurt his back in week 12 and missed the final three games of 2016. And this year, he hurt his other foot in spring workouts and he's been battling THAT injury through the first half of the year. You can have you own (half-baked) thoughts, but that doesn't make them logical...
