CMC Update: Possibly out this week.

Remember, Rhule came here because in part he was promised a sports science department. Would make no sense for him to want that then ignore science.

Having experienced a shoulder injury in college on a nearly identical fall, I can tell you that I think its worse than a stinger.  Stingers hurt immediately, but the shoulder injury may not be noticed immediately---the adrenaline, the fact that the shoulder is loose, etc.  When it tightens, or when it gets in just the right position, the injury can be felt.  It seemed that is what was happening in the 4-second sideline shots--I am guessing that he is done for the year---

Understand that I am not an expert and only saw what you saw--but the hunch I have is not a good one.

And it could be something totally different.  I say bench him until you get an OL.

This. 

We are in the business of looking at the roster and figuring out who fits in moving forward, not making a playoff run this year.  Honestly, I think that is where we have been since day one.  CMC is a known commodity for next year and does not need to be part of that evaluation process, especially the way the injury train has gone for him this year.

And so it begins. Never draft a RB that high and def don’t pay them like superstars

not necessarily.   adrenaline is a helluva drug.   and he was hurt before the diving out of bounds play.  he shouldn't have been put back in.

he also could have separated his collarbone.   not much you can do about that or it happening again and again.

Collarbone is what I thought at first--hoping it was not a shoulder. 

I did not know he was put back in, but a lot of that involves communication.  If he did not say a lot...

From everything I have read and seen, Rhule has zero influence on what happens in the trainers room. They inform him of when players can play, and he listens. No push back. 

This is the way it should be IMO. Let medical people make medical decisions. 

[WarHeel]

Anybody have a gif or video of the play in which he was injured?

That only works if the medical people are given honest information from the players - IE Cam admitting he hid the severity of his foot injury from the team.

Anyone that watched him play and thought he was healthy is crazy. These guys have been told to tough it out their whole lives. I think younger players are getting past this, but for sure those in their late 20s or older, admitting to injury basically equates to being soft.

[Snake]

That's why you don't pay RBs mega deals.

Dude looked like he was in significant pain. Couldn't tell if it was his neck, shoulder, or ribs. Hopefully it's not similar to KK's issue.

Time for the $3M Man to rumble again!

3 million dollar man regressing every week where the hell is Reggie we need him back ASAP . Trenton cannon should never see the field as a running back ever . 

[uncfan888]

Sucks but its the risk you run when you pay running backs
