Word from reporters, so it wasn't just a fever dream

 

 

 

Hmmmm...why isn't Benford listed?

 

Is he alright?

However, I did not see Taron Johnson on that list.

 

Wouldn't he technically be day-to-day, as well?

 

Or did he not have a concussion?

Usually that is just "he's in the protocol".   Taron has been through this 4 times previously and usually exits in record time, hopefully that continues and he is good.

I never see that happen with them.  Have you?  I agree that it should happen from time to time; every team goes through it once in a while, but they do not.  

 

And when someone does go down, they are back in a series or two.  Rashee Rice went down against Miami and was back in a couple series.

 

Meanwhile, Miami must have had at least 3-4 players go down during the game.

 

On a side note, the fact that I found myself passionately rooting for Miami in that game was a realization of how deep my hatred for KC has become 😆 So admittedly, that factors into my bitterness on this subject, but either way, it remains a fact.  Since Mahomes entered the league, I don't remember KC dealing with any "significant" injuries on their entire team in the playoffs except for Honey Badger.  And the fact that it's just ONE GUY over 7 playoff runs is just.... 🤦‍♂️ forget it

 

 

That is AWESOME news on Bernard.

He's officially in concussion protocol which means that it's out of the Bills hands. That said, it is possible he gets through the stages fast.

He is in concussion protocol...gonna be hard for him to go thru all the steps needed and be back in 6 days...that's a killer with the move of the game...CP requires a step by step process that needs time to get thru before clearing

McDermott said Taron is in concussion protocol.

 

Players in concussion protocol are never "day to day".  There's a specific process they have to go through.

Joe Giles Harris "listed" on NFL.com as member of Bills but other sites list him elsewhere.  No dates listed on NFL.com.

I'm not sure why Katherine Fitzgerald didn't list him.  He was the last guy McDermott listed, with a knee, before saying we'll just take it day by day and see how it goes.

Ok I couldn't listen. Good to hear, and it jives with what @HappyDayswas saying.

Giles Harris is on the Patriots practice squad.

Taron being out would be a huge loss, it’s still possible he could get cleared in time though. There were a couple of guys that got concussions this year and had short turnarounds and then played less than a week later. So it can happen

Really depends on the type of tear. Range of motion can be really inhibited with some tears where the meniscus gets caught and locks the knee in which case he would need surgery. 

I had that, along with ACL certain motions with cause the piece to flip up, i’d have to push the knee straight to pop it back in.🤦‍♂️

Figured as much but someone was asking if he had played for Bills.  Some sites like NFL.com just do not seem to do much updating wanting you to see ads even if info is out of date.

I understand. Just thought that process technically qualified as “day to day” as well, since, it kind of is, even though it’s behind the scenes.

Brady walked off the field after he tore his ACL. Maybe he’s upset TayTay wasn’t at his game?  

 

 

 

P.S. - When my son tore his ACL/MCL and then saw Brady walk off he said “that was not the same injury.”

If he’s limited tomorrow it’s a good first step.

Here's the update I got on a few of the injuries suffered yesterday:

 

-Spector is totally fine, will have no issues.

 

-Benford has a small tear in his meniscus but may be able to play through it. TBD

 

-Bernard I got less clarity on. My source believes it is a high ankle sprain, but not 100% sure since they were still testing it as of when my source got the information. TBD on if he can definitely return this year or what the return time would look like but thankfully it appears he avoided a truly serious injury.

 

I have no update on Taron Johnson, or the players that were out against the Steelers. I'll pass along any further updates if I receive them.

 

 

Couple updates:

 

-Sam Martin has a grade 2 hamstring strain. He was shot up at halftime of the Steelers game just to be able to execute his punts in the 2nd half, but that is a temporary solution before the swelling sets in. Unlikely he will be available on Sunday.

 

-Spector may have what's called a "transverse process fracture" in his back (someone more medically educated than me can maybe explain what this is) which is just a pain management issue.

So what are our options for a punter?
