Recommended Posts

According to an inside source, CBSSports has learned that no one really knows when Jonathan Stewart will return.

Stewart continues to have ankle problems, and a source told CBSSports.com's Dave Richard that the team doesn't know when he'll return to the practice field.
 
Stewart is on the Physically Unable to Perform list, and he'll stay there for the time being. In fact, the team has “no idea” when he'll be ready to come off it.
 
"It could be any day or it could carry on into the regular season," the source told Richard.

That's fine, if the offense from the end of last season we need a bellcow and not a tandem. Dwill getting 20+ carries and not only breaking 100 but 200 yards convinced me of that. People also seem to forget we have Tolbert and Barner who are both going to be change of pace backs. Let Stew stew, and let him come back good as new, we will start to look like the Greek mythological dog with 4 heads. Whose gonna eat you is the question.

Until its Offical i'm counting on Stewart to be ready by the season....maybe they are taking extra caution to heal the injury 100% before risking anything.

That is a novel concept. $35 mil running back injured in camp because he wasn't 100%. Who wants to make that mistake.

From a source close to the situation

 

Stewart: I'll do what I do every year, man. I ain't really into that summer heat, all that work? Heck no. When Training Camp starts to come to a close, I may get back out there, provided coach doesn't have us doing too much, but until then, I'm really enjoying my spot on the bike this year. They got these little areas underneath the seat where you can put your water bottle this year, and they even let us take our iPods out there so we can listen to music and stuff, and it's really just a much better overall experience this year. I'll just keep working hard, doing what I do, you know?

    • I didn't hold my tongue...I was out on Bryce LONG before he was drafted by the Panthers. Bryce's game did not translate well to the NFL. I vividly remember the 2022 Texas vs. Alabama game as the prime example of why Bryce would never translate well to the NFL. That was one of the best defeses Alabama played that season, a big chunk of players from that Texas defense are playing in the NFL now, and Bryce struggled all game. If Quinn Ewers didn't get hurt in that game, Texas would have won and the entire Bryce narrative changes.  If anyone wants a reminder, here's the highlights of the game. He looks like EXACTLY the same QB now. Nothing has changed.         
    • Did they have a backup QB active who has a "broken thumb' on his throwing hand?  Yeah that's on Dave too. Im not even sure they had another active option or why Dalton isn't on IR yet still. 
    • There is something quite similar though about the losses to the Cardinals and Saints. The blowouts tell me something different - I think the team losses confidence against complete teams rapidly.  That is a coaching aspect, but also young players.  Tbh, I can live with that for now if they beat the teams they're supposed to and give a good fight in other games (as they did). But the Cardinals and Saints games were stories of the offense either giving the game away or being unable to do ... Well, anything. While that is on Canales, too, both those games also featured standout (or truthfully standard) performances from our QB early and sometimes across the entire game. I do think it's hard to evaluate Canales when he has a QB that can't or won't execute an NFL offense for huge stretches or entire games. But there are signs of concern. Still, the very fact we had a win streak being a predictable as we were indicates the team has come along. And most of the team showed up vs the Saints, and I really think it's clear that was an incredibly winnable game with a different QB.
