I mean, I'm not complaining. I think it was smart player management IMO. It's just dumb to have your best players out there when you're out of contention if they're already banged up. It's a different story if you're fighting for a playoff berth.

I agree with it and it’s likely why 2022 CMC was all of a sudden healthy all year.

Horn doesn’t seem to be in the same bucket yet since he’s 3 for 3 for not being healthy. Hopefully, this isn’t a multi-gamer and he proves us wrong but none of us were surprised when he got hurt in camp and hurt again yesterday. Just imagine having Parsons on the opposite side of Burns or having Slater at LT so we could have used pick 6 on Garrett Wilson instead of Iky or having Surtain as a healthy CB. Out of the 4 “choices” we had at Horn’s pick, we seemed to have picked the worst one.

So Fitts should be fired for drafting a shut down corner. 

Not a take I would have expected even from the huddle.

Can't blame the GM for the injury bug that has bit Horn... I don't think Horn had a serious injury history in college, did he?

Hopefully he comes back from this quick, but I'm not exactly hopeful for his longevity.

So still no update on the severity of the injury?...why does it seem like our team takes so long to report these things where other teams provide updates almost right away? Does this mean it's not a severe injury?

It's just weird to see other teams report their injuries especially when significant versus p**** footing around it like our organization does

This organization thinks they need to keep everything close to the vest because other teams are trying sooooo hard to get a competitive advantage over these bums lol

It was arguably a bad pick at the time simply due to team needs, and it's now compounding by his lack of availability. The team is accountable for the former, and the latter just makes it appear that much worse.

So far, the most fitting definition of that "shutdown" moniker for Horn has been his status on Sundays.

He's keeping that urgent care office from shutting down too.

We needed a corner. If he wasn't on the roster,  we'd need another corner.  So your argument that he didn't fill a need just doesn't hold a drop of water. 

ThIs in the NFL.  He didn't have a history of injuries, so there was zero red flags.  

Just seems to me you and others were just waiting for any injury to happen to harp more on him. I find that quite amusing that CB's often struggle with minor injuries. That's what this one is. A soft tissue injury that is extremely common throughout the league when real games start getting played. 

It does suck not to have such a great talent on the field. That's aways the case when a stud player gets hurt.  Once again this is the NFL. 

Perhaps you should watch table tennis instead.

This x100

i followed horn his entire college career and every gamecock who is also miserable enough to be a panther fan is surprised at how his professional career has gone so far. Injuries happen, but this is a bizarre run of random things popping up left and right for a guy who had no prior injury history
