Of course he deserves much respect, and gratitude to go with it! But that doesn't solve the Cowboy's problem that they
STILL NEED A LT! We keep nursing Tyron along year after limping year and STILL no good solution in sight. When is Jerry and co. ever going to do something about it? :angry:
This thread changed. My comment was st the original poster calling out TS on his health.
Do we need another LT...absolutely. No disputing that

You realize he won’t be 100% all season if he’s having these issues now, right? His body doesn’t recover during the season anymore. Pain becomes tolerable at certain points but he always begins a downhill descent once the injuries start. Usually it’s about 2 months later.

He awkwardly tweaked his knee and now he’s fine. I do that once a month getting out of my truck. What are you even talking about?

Just because he didn’t blow out his knee doesn’t mean he’s fine. How many times getting out of your truck do you have 275 pound guys running 4.6 at you that you need to be able to bend to stop?

Have you watched Tyron’s injury history the last 5 years? He doesn’t just bounce back anymore

Sure, when he’s actually injured. By all accounts he isn’t injured.

I tweak a knee every once in a while and limp for a few days :(, but there's no way in hades I go out afterwards and try to play 17 hellish football games on it.

Even if he is fine, although the way he went down did not look like he is fine, we have got to be concerned that he went down without anyone touching him. It does not look good from that perspective.

But, for those people thinking we should trade for another LT, be real. No one trades away competent LT 2 weeks before the season begins. They may find someone who is mediocre and then plan on giving him some help but there are no great LTs out there to be had.

Maybe they have to consider moving Tyler Smith to LT and going with McGovern at LG. It is not ideal but when you lose your starting LT the line is going to suffer.

People don’t just go for MRIs when they’re completely healthy. At best there’s likely some sort of sprain. Remember he had to leave practice with the Broncos 2 weeks ago also.

Now saying it's a severe hamstring injury that could cost him months

So they are saying that he could have a torn Hamstring? If that is the case he is one tough SOB walking off on his own power and not even a slight limp?? Wow

He’s completely done. Go watch the Cardinals late in the year and 49er playoff game. He is DONE.
