Elam always seems to perform well when called upon.

 

Very surprised that Taylor Rapp's injury may not be as serious.  He looked done last night.

 

Elam does well as a boundary corner against the chiefs because they often play to the middle and find the seams meaning he does decent at pushing the play inside and outside/to the hash. 

 

His speed makes the difference to make it work.

hate to say this, but I have to think the Taylor rapp is “day to day” is the same thing as zay flowers being “questionable.” Rapp was carted off the field! 
 

 

I was wondering what kind of injury goes from dude can’t walk to nah I’m good overnight? Deep bone bruise?

 

Also re: Benford in the protocol, do we know he actually sustained a concussion? Players can work through the protocol without actually haven’t gotten concussed.

I don't think anyone said Rapp "can't walk".  He walked to the sidelines, got evaluated then was carted off.  Absolutely no need to make that walk to locker room, if in pain/trainers didn't know severity.  He also wasn't ruled out immediately.  It could very well be a bruise/jammed his hip.

 

We only know Benford is in protocol.  He was interviewed after game in locker room, and some noted he wasn't even acting like he had a head injury.

 

Who knows, but I'd expect both these guys are ready for Sunday.

Funny you mentioned bone bruise. That’s what I guessed when it happened. That’s based on zero medical knowledge!

They thought it might be a torn labrum.  Seems like that has been ruled out, unless the day-to-day is BS.

The last I remember of Milano he was one on one vs a 300+olinemen and trying to will his way through him. Not sure if he wore himself out there

It was really strange- Saw the replay last night. His last play happened and then I believe it was the 2 minute warning.

 

So I'm not sure if it was a fatigue issue, since he would have had rest after the 2 minute warning, unless he truly had nothing left.

But the weird part when he was out-  I saw him on the sidelines with his helmet on. Not near the injury tent or anything.

 

So who knows what happened, bit of a strange one
