I feel something very very wrong with Jonathan Stewart

[Sam Mills Fan]

There are two letters that I'm afraid may be in his future that Fox has been keeping from us this preseason. They are......IR.

[Lt Pinkerton]

What evidence do you have of that?

[PanthersAlv]

hush your mouth!

[Fireball77]

I'm not worried about IR. I think they are just being overly cautious.

[Sam Mills Fan]

What evidence do you have of that?

Whispers from Gantt on Twitter. Absolutely no interviews with anyone from the organization about his condition lately. Not even suiting up for any game only to be held out like players like Thomas Davis have. No one talking about him being ready for Philly.

Just a feeling I have. It just seems something is up there.

That would be horrible even with goodson looking very good. But I doubt that is the case in any event we would certainly put him on PUP prior to IR to at least have a shot after week 6.

keep philly guessing

[Mr. Scot]

Hate to say it, but it's a legit concern. The idea that he was excused from practice to look for a second opinion is a distinct possibility, and a concerning one.

May prove not to be later, but based on what we know now, there is at least the possibility.

[Mr. Scot]

Double posts are a sign of intelligence

[Sam Mills Fan]

Apparently he's not eligible for PUP according to Gantt.

I highly doubt that is the case, but in any event if that did happen that means a lot more carries for DWill until he get healthy....which is never a bad thing. If he was going to be going on IR he would have had surgery or something by now, and we would have heard about it. I think that they are just being cautious. They are just keeping one of their thoroughbreds safe till the real bullets start flying.

i hope your wrong but i think you might be right. if it wasn't something serious i could understand being held out of games but you would think he would at least practice a couple days a week.

i was also just listening to the frank and buck show and one the guys on there said they had heard that stewart went to a personal doctor and was told that the injury was more serious than originally thought. i doubt there's any truth to it cause he didn't say who the source was, so as of right now its just a rumor.

[Fireball77]

Well to play into what SMF fears, it would make sense if they were extra concerned about Stewart why they wouldn't play Williams at all vs Balt.

It seems like this Achilles thing has been bothering him a great deal for months and they kept thinking it would heal on its own with rest and that obviously isn't happening. I'm guessing it's giving him a tremendous amount of pain when he tries to make a cut.
