Ugh this means I get to watch Vernon Butler pee down his leg some more and be useless.

 

Yes that is exactly what it means.

 

Also probably means more of the punchless DT combos of Phillips and Butler on the field at the same time.

Won't matter much this week against the Jets but we are going to get ate alive by the Colts and their physical run game next week..

I like Zimmer’s hustle.  This year it doesn’t seem like he’s making the big plays he had in 2020

When Butler plays smart he can handle the 1 tech position fine.........he did it against the Ravens last season when they shut their run game down in the playoffs.    I'm more concerned about what they lose in terms of getting into the backfield by not having Zimmer.    Zimmer also has an awareness for making plays on the football that they don't otherwise have at the DT position.

But you don’t get Webb + another player for Tribusky. Or is there another spot. Zimmer to IR was the only real open slot and that was filled with Lewis. 

Kumerow is also on the covid list

Didn’t like him coming out of college and I’ve liked him even less in the NFL. Didn’t like the signing when it happened and still don’t like it.

Ya well I didn’t like him when he was born, didn’t like him in kindergarten and still don’t like him 😂

Should be - Zimmer = Lewis; Tribusky = Webb; Kumerow = OBJ

Only if OBJ can be our starting HB.

Very sad news. Let’s hope Harrison Phillips steps up.

Yea Butler blows…. He was actually one of the ex Carolina Panthers signings I liked but he’s sucked ever since getting paid by McBeane.

Kinda like Daryl Williams....money, the great motivator.

Time for JAG Harry to finally do something. Get well, Zim.

Stinks for Zimmer, other guys need to step up.

 

Leaves us with 1 roster spot after all these moves, correct? 

We called up Cam Lewis.

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Let’s see if Boogie Basham can get on the field now.

[JerseyBills]

Stinks.

Give big Ed more playing time. He has quietly had a great season.

Torn ACL per McDermott

I am a huge Zimmer fan… hate this for him. I hope he has a full recovery and is back next year.

According to an article, he had the knee issue all year. He was still something to behold when running free to get to a ball carrier. He's so fast for his size.
