Wow.  I’m eating a big old plate of crow right now.  Figured there was no way he’d start.

 

You guys don’t think McD would start Keenum and make Allen the backup for tomorrow, do you?

I doubt it but the dolphins did that recently with bridgewater/Thompson so I guess it does happen.  Thompson got the start with teddy banged up but teddy was active

I imagine they just have to inform the league by 4pm and it could take a while to be made public??

 

Agreed. Should wait a few before celebrating.

 

@YoloinOhio keep us updated!!!

Someone will be elevated, at least a DT.

 

Just no announcement yet, it's been filed with the league already.

[Blank Stare]

Minute to minute 

[Turbo44]

Rhodes and/ or a DT would likely be elevated so with nobody announced as of yet we’re definitely not out of the woods

yeah true.  Makes sense.  The wait continues!

[Frez]

I can’t take it ! 
 

My guess, he’s not playing.

I’ve never seen anything like this!

Unlike the specifics of Allen’s actual injury, this is something I expect to be leaked quickly

You could write a psychological study on the various ways that humans deal with unknown potentially bad news just based upon this thread alone.

Pure guess... that we elevate Mike Love and Matt Barkley.

Is there more anxiety behind this or the Mario Williams signing thread?

I’d be pretty surprised if Barkley doesn’t get elevated either way

I feel like once they file it with the league someone leaks it or it’s easy to find.

This is such a good point, we still have no idea officially what the injury actually is.

 

The closest we have is Lloyd Christmas on Twitter saying he knows Allen’s girlfriend, and Will Whatever his name is saying he has a source.

 

Rapoport mentioned grip numerous times so hoping for just the nerve.

Dude went from his career potentially being over to playing the next game in 6 days lol not only does that mean he’s playing…it probably means he’s very close to fine 

 

if Allen was playing through a semi serious injury that they weren’t sure how he’d respond to in a game they would’ve dressed Barkley
