Wow, lot's of shoulder and knee surgeries throughout the team. That was a bunch of players that were playing hurt with a good chance of doing much better (given proper recuperation and rehab.)
I mean, until all of the next round of injuries...

Wow...Frederick didn't even play last year, but he needs shoulder surgery? Was this an injury that happened pre-Gullain-Barre?
I wouldn't be surprised if he tweaked it lifting.

He could have had a strained rotator cuff for the last 10 years, and then pulled it a bit when the muscles around the shoulder got weaker. Surgery doesn't necessarily mean it's a serious injury, especially since he will be ready to go by July.

Not all that good of relayed news/ knowledge,,, to be hearing,,,:(,,, although,I wasn't fully sold in the thought concept that our #72 was gonna' rebound back to his ol' godlike awesome self of old,either.
Worry not unless ye of weak bowel and gutteral movements to a southern netherworld. Fred will regain flapjack pounders of the preordained kind in no time.

Half an nfl roster has some surgery each off season
Like changing the oil in your car it’s so common

Hopefully, just from shoulder rehab. His 90% is better than most players 100%.

Not worried about fredbeard at all. Looney played just fine and should start with the 1's untill fred can earn his job back. Same for Witten with the TE group. You don't play for a year you earn your spot back.

You should be. He's been out of the game for a year with an autoimmune disease which causes weakness and tingling. His job is to move 300lb+ defensive tackles. Looney was okay last year, but Beard might never be the same.

Yeah, there's always several getting knocked out in TC and preseason. Hopefully, not the OLine starters or Dlaw.
"Hopefully" being the operative word, lol.

The reality is that, by week 17, everyone is banged up. It's odd that the Cowboys have had a number of shoulder surgeries, specifically, but it's not rare for teams to have several players getting surgery after the season ends.

Even a torn labrum won't delay him very long.

Very true. Just a matter of degree. They just gotta keep suckin' down the Rx 'roids and opiods.

So that's why McGovern was working at Center. Fredrick and Collins should be out during OTAs n Mini-camp...would be cool to hear CWill getting reps at RT instead of say Fleming.
Time to plug and play. Find out who's where.

That sound you hear is the first nail in the Garrett coffin for 2019. Guy has already lost the team for the year...if he ever had it. I think the players see through the charade...and their just not gotta sacrifice themselves any longer. It's every man for themselves...Sad it's come to this because there is some talent here. :(

:rolleyes:

Good news

Last thing he needs is to get hurt early and also looney can get more reps it’s a win win
