PIZ Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 49ers | Jennings Dinged - from www.KFFL.comFri, 3 Jun 2005 05:47:46 -0700 Roger Phillips, of InsideBayArea.com, reports San Francisco 49ers LT Jonas Jennings (ankle) twisted an ankle this week and did not practice Thursday, June 2. Head coach Mike Nolan said the injury is not serious. No, it's not serious, but the 49ers should count on this happening multiple times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 12 million bonus. And 37 million total. Wow, that's a lot for a guy to play 12 games per year and not even be at the Ogen, Thomas or Pace level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richNjoisy Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 I was under the impression that LAST year was JJ's best in terms of injuries. I got the impression he played through more injuries than he typicaly did. Couldn't be that it was ue to it being his contract year, could it?

It is optional and Mike Mularkey said Travis Henry, Willis McGahee, Mike Williams, Shane Matthews, Sam Adams and Takeo Spikes chose not to come." http://www.wgr550.com/fullstory.php?id=0870 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d_wag Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 What does that have to do with Jonas' injury history? 350388[/snapback] it has about as much to do with his history as this "twisted ankle" does......it's not serious and a complete non-story......if he was sitting home on his a** (ala the buffalo stars) then we wouldn't even hear about it........

Fake-Fat Sunny Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 it has about as much to do with his history as this "twisted ankle" does......it's not serious and a complete non-story......if he was sitting home on his a** (ala the buffalo stars) then we wouldn't even hear about it........ 350436[/snapback] I appreciated the post which noted the Jennings twisted ankle. The sense it is not serious does make this fall far short of being THE story regarding JJ. However, I would disagree that it is a non-story because: 1. He got a huge contract from SF and some advocated the Bills should have given a huge contract to JJ because of the hole we have at LT. 2. From my view JJ was not worth a huge contract from the Bills because he has never started all 16 at any point in his career and last year saw him not only fail again to start 16, but he actually proved unable to finish play in a couple of games due to injury. I think we fans are too quick to label a player injury prone because this label is falsely thrown around after a player get injured even once (ex. claims that JP is injury prone after his break last year are silly). However, though i did not devolve to the shorthand of describing JJ that way because I don't think the facts support that claim, it is simply true that the facts say he never has started all 16 and that it a real issue when it comes to the $ numbers the market would force the Bills to have paid to keep him. However, I do think it will be legit to lay the injury prone labol on JJif he agains suffers a serious injury which causes him to miss real game time this season. The twisted ankle is NOT this story because real games have not started yet and the injury was not serious. However, this occurence is not a non-story or in anyway the same as a player deciding not to appear at a "voluntary" workout because of his injury history and big contract.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 at least he showed up for mini-camp....... Maybe he SHOULDN'T have, and he'd still be healthy (...for a few more weeks)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, JJ got hurt during the "optional" summer practice. 49ers minicamp was in early May. It would be helpful if people got the terminology right.
