He apparently was injured last week and is not practicing until he is evaluated by the doctor. Zac said they don't know the extent of his injury. Not knowing Zac's definition of "dinged" it leaves a lot of room for nervous speculation
Sounds like he got hurt last week; Taylor won't confirm how bad the I I jury is until doctors get a full look at it.
Well, I guess this will be telling.
Used to, with Marvin, a "dinged up" high draft pick meant we wouldn't see him until the playoffs were out of the picture. I always wondered if that was Marvin, or the organization.
And so our franchise tradition of losing our first round pick to injury before we get anything useful out of them may be continuing...
Evaluated by a doctor doesn't sound good. Given the injury took place last week.
If we go by the past, "dinged up" probably means he's done for the year.
Not a good start to minicamp.
Eh...I think it would have leaked if it was really bad.
But, that's probably why they signed Jerry. Glenn would shift back to Tackle.
Cincy Jungle is speculating that it's a concussion because of the week long evaluation.

Concussion, while not great news is also not terrible news.
How would he get a concussion in OTA's though as they don't wear pads?

concussion in no contact drills...
He must be like bill Goldberg.
Shh don't tell the league if it really is a concussion. That sounds like trouble.

you can get a concussion by hitting the sled wrong or falling wrong with your head bouncing off the ground or in an accidental elbow to the head..even with no contact
Doesn't sound to serious else he would've been looked at immediately.
He's at practice with no outward (boot, crutches, sling, brace, bandages) sign of injury which does lead some credence to a potential concussion

or just caution..... playing it safe for mini camp.

Carlos Dunlap had a concussion in training camp his rookie season, and he got 9.5 sacks that year.

Have they even install the new offense? Seems like it would be a work in progress for all of them at this point.
If he meant he struggled with the playbook last year that is not good. 2018 was his third season.
So our first round pick is cutting practices with no visible injury?
Sounds like a spoiled "Prima-Jonah" to me.
