This foot re-injury story does not add up....it's a smokescreen.

Cam showed no signs of an injury in the game. 

If he was injured the Panthers were obligated to provide an In-Game Injury Report (there was none).

Cam walked normally after the game, wore his normal street shoes, no boot was required.

If there really is a tweak/injury it must be WAY less serious than the original sprain, this is the good news.

Last time there were x-rays taken, a boot was utilized, the GM provided an update the next day ("We are cautiously optimistic he will be ready for Week 1.") including a probable time-line for return.  Cam returned to practice, albeit with limited participation, 4-days after the Patriots game.

We've established that if there is a tweak of the sprain it's less serious than the original injury and here we are just finding out about it on day-5?  And he can't practice and there's zero disclosure on a probable time-frame, etc...?

Doesn't add up.  This is a smokescreen....

....eventually the smoke will clear and we will learn the truth.

Smokescreen for what?

I can think of two options:

1. He really has fallen out of love with the game and the team is using the foot as cover to give him time to figure what he wants to do. It going public that he is have mental issues would not be good for him. He admitted to battling some depression last year.

2. It’s actually the shoulder and we don’t want other teams to know it’s the shoulder.

I really hope it’s option 3 and it’s just the foot, but the OP is right that foot thing doesn’t really add up. Possible he did hurt it a little but I have a hard time seeing it being hurt enough to completely prevent him from playing.

teams simply  don't disclose all injuries on an injury report.  We know that is a fact.  As our own players when the season has ended have then admitted to all sorts of injuries that they played with for weeks.  And team clearly was aware.

How long is the mod crew planning on letting OP drag this alt out? How much idiocy do you need to see?

If the team was aware of injuries and didn’t report it the union would have a field day

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By CRA · Posted

      Ravens mixing it up with a random Mark Andrew tush push last year isn't a similar situation.  Lamar has run QB sneaks his entire career.  And often instead of a traditional sneak will even employ a 4th and 1 direct snap to Lamar simply because of how athletic he is (which even Cam did a lot of) and let him pick his own holes.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By CRA · Posted

      height being an issue doesn't just mean batted balls.  You could argue Bryce minimizes batted balls by adopting other poor habits such as his jump passing and leaving the pocket.   As I said, there are plays you can point to where he clearly was blind to parts of the field/players....which kills plays and opportunity. Which actually means some of the shorter/hot throws when things break down are where his vision gets blocked (and he had below average production all around the line of scrimmage).   has he figured it out? I mean, he improved off a trainwreck start.  But Bryce Young since arriving in the league (even while figuring it out)......doesn't generate much offensive production vs his peers.  I just think his ceiling is low.   And that's not in the grand scheme what you want in the NFL.  I think he can develop into a serviceable QB, that will largely always been a middle of the pack or low end starter.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      People make a lot of noise about his footwork and I think it is overblown. Whether he takes 3 steps backwards or 5 small steps doesn't matter as long as he ends up at the right depth and is in sync with  the receiver regarding timing. If he does that consistently who cares as long as he has a firm stable base as he delivers the ball. Which he does need to work on. However even that is somewhat overblown given that often QBs have to throw off balance or from different arm angles to fit the ball around defenders. He is considered very accurate so apparently it isn't hurting him that much.
