Pilares has high ankle sprain

Increases his chances of making it through waivers and thus getting to our practice squad while he heals up. I doubt very many teams want to use up a roster spot on a player that has an injury that could keep him out for an unknown period of time (we have seen some high ankle sprains take months and months to heal)

From Men'sHealth.com

Recovery can take much longer than the common ankle sprain. If the injury is stable, a doctor will typically put the player in a cast for 6 weeks. If unstable, a syndesmotic screw may be placed between the tibia and fibula ligaments to hold them in position while the ligament heels. Rest here is crucial: these screws stay in place for three months—if walked on, they can break. Expect a player to be out for at least 3 months.

You'd think all the injuries we have had, it'd force Hurney to finally make a move on somebody..instead he still does nothing.

I'm not suggesting we prioritize a WR in FA...but I'm getting tired of seeing players we could use in the FA pool and us doing nothing, especially with more injuries mounting..

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
