I heard a rumor that Kirkpatrick hurt himself. I am definitely not trying to start any bad rumors .....
Was just curious if anyone can confirm this info???
Hopefully it is a garbage rumor!

Must be bogus "rumor", as I searched using several different key words, nothing. And if there were something going on, it would most definitely be news, as they just signed him to a 5 year deal.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Was hoping it was a head injury and it knocked the drama out of him so he could be something better than an overrated field queen. Guess we are stuck with the dancing and arm waving after every single play.

It was a tweet from someone, and I saw some video of what looked like Dre in a sling during some drills. Really seemed like a crap rumor to me... figured if it was for real, you guys would know about it.

Looks like he might have his arm in a sling, but it is minor
Yeah, no big deal.
To Harley, Dre actually played very good last year to my surprise.
Best deep ball CB in the NFL last year.
I have hated on the guy every year until last. He shut me up for a bit. Just hope he continues that play.

He surprised me as well. His drama drives me crazy. I think we overpaid him and I'm skeptical of his talent. I'll give him another year to prove me wrong.

I think if he humbles himself and takes the drama out of his game, he will get to another level. However, he's got guaranteed money now so I don't see that happening unless he believes in the hype and wants to go down in history as one of the best in the game. Would be a lot of work.

I have spoke before of my concern of Dre going back to his poor play from before once he gets paid.
Hope i am wrong but he did play very well last year and he has said he wants to be the best. We will see with Dre.
Happy we have Shaw, Dennard and WJ3 in case.

Excellent point. I'm excited to see what these guys can do as well.

That physical style helps him as a nickel corner, but i also like that physical style on the outside. In the AFC North you need physical players.

Personally, I love a physical CB on our team. However, the league seems to be getting more and more critical of defense putting their hands on offensive players. As long as Shaw has the ability to dial it up, or gage it back down, according to how the officials are calling it on any particular day, he should be fine.

I can't remember Shaw getting called for any penalties last year. All the big hits he made were clean from what i saw.
Might of missed a play or two though. Still, i am with you love that physicality in a CB.

Maybe he hurt his arm pounding on hotel room doors with Pacman.
