Reported MCL sprain last night. Nothing more yet
MRI today. They're all "sprains" until they're not.

Dallas may have to give a 1st for Trent Williams the way this is headed.

Why, can Trent Williams play DT?

You want Cameron Fleming and Brandon Knight at tackle?

I was exagerrating to make a point, but it's becoming a glaring and growing concern.

Tyron has a bad ankle and a bad back.

La'el has a tight back and now a sprained knee.

Zack Martin has a back issue.

Frederick isn't his old self yet. Not nearly as strong as he was.

Williams is simply not that good.

Problems abound.

Why? The season is looking like a washout any way. Besides this juggernaut coaching staff will figure out how to cover up the injury.

And sadly, the OL is not the worst of our problems.

Lael was walking into the xray room under his own power. Mickey's radio report he is saying it " looks" like a medium sprain ,which these are 2 weeks at the least,
and four weeks at the worse. I'm breathing a sigh of relief that it's a sprain MCL and not the tear MCL.
even before the knee sprain, Collins was already struggling, which tells me that bad back is bothersome and worse than they are letting on.

Rest assure they are getting Brandon Knight ready - and there isn't any one on practice squad they could bring up except - er, Mitch Ryatt (Yikes!!)

I was honestly surprised that Brandon Knight didn't get exposed. He seemed to hold his own, which surprised me. Hopefully Collins is ready for the Eagles, any team is going to get killed with both starting OTs out of the game.

He was able to run DE wide. But the interior line saved him because they allowed Dak to step up several times.

Knight played better than Flemmings.
