Xavier Su'a-Filo to IR

[*pally*]

He will be out at least 3 weeks. Time for Billy Price to show he can get it done. But looks like the weak right side just got weaker.

Geno and Shawn Williams also not practicing again. I can't see either of them playing Thursday without practice in over 2 weeks but who knows. I don't know why I am already getting an AJ situation feeling with Geno's injury. At least with Williams they said when he was injured it would be about a month from the time of the injury before he could play.

Mike Daniels also missed practice. If he can't go we are really really thin at DT. I can already see Kahild McKenzie being a PS active player

Geno Atkins disappeared a long time ago.

Time for Billy to show he isn't a complete bust.

He had a healthy off season for the first time in his career, if I recall correctly, and he added weight so he should be able to compete.

If he has any talent, that is.

Where is this Fred Johnson guy I heard so much about??

Yeah, I guess that is why his fellow NFL players voted him to the Pro Bowl last year.

In the depth chat Shaq Calhoun is the back up right guard so maybe he'll start. Price may have come in on Sunday because he was more familiar with the offense at that point

I don't think he has been taking any snaps at OG, but if Price struggles I would no be surprised to see him get a shot at RG.

He was working at OG when the Steelers released him last year.

I think I saw him at lunch with Armon Binns.

Billy did fine against the bolts and beefed up. I'll give him one more chance..

Here we go again...

First Waynes now Filo. Every stinking season we get gutted by injuries.

I thought he was carted off with cramps? if so, drink some freaken Gatorade. So now I have 2 questions:

1. If not cramps, what is the injury?

2. Is this one of our famous mysterious injuries where they make it sound like a player will be ready in a week or so and then 10 weeks later they are DTD?

The cramps belonged to DJ Reader.  XSF sprained an ankle.  The ankle injury was announced during the broadcast and Zac said after the game it was a multi week injury

I was genuinely surprised that during the last offseason the medical staff didn't get the boot.
But, honestly, what NFL team doesn't have to endure significant absences due to injury? This isn't the ridiculous injury list that we have had in years past, like last year with Green and Jonah out for the season before week 1.

Right? Amazing how a guy who disappeared "a long time ago" was named to the all-decade team.

[NATI BENGALS]

I’m not sure we can afford to lose an OL to IR and replace him on the roster with a shitty kicker. Come on now.

Damn, your heavy negative early this year. Don't fall off the wagon yet.

[CorpusChristiBengal]

There must be something we don't know about Ron Leary for him not to be signed by a team yet.

Billy Price, Fred Johnson, and Shaq Calhoun all play guard.  Plus they can active Keaton Sutherland from the PS for the game.  On a short week adding someone who doesn't know the offense won't help much

Fred Johnson was taking snaps with the first team at RG during training camp
