ARLINGTON, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl right guard Zack Martinsuffered a knee injury in the second quarter of Saturday's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Martin, who will undergo an MRI on Sunday, was hurt on a 7-yard run by Rod Smith, on which it appeared that the helmet of a Cincinnati defender hit Martin's knee. Martin limped off the field and spent a good portion of time in the medical tent before heading to the locker room.

He returned to the sideline in the second half but was not in uniform.

He’ll get an MRI tomorrow I’m sure, but if the medical staff had ANY clinical suspicion for any significant ligament injury he would not have been walking around without any knee support.

Garrett just said that MRI tomorrow, but indications are "positive." (I took that to mean positive that it won't be a long term injury)

Garrett also said that after initial check, doctors are optimistic about the injury, but we'll know more after MRI tomorrow.

Possible Lose Lose situation. If Zach is OUT, The Clapping Carrot is IN for another season. You know, the injury excuse thingy.

So your problem with Garrett is that he’s a redhead? :muttley:

Garrett said MRI tomorrow. First impression though was positive. Will evaluate more tomorrow.

Oh Christ, not this quack doc again.

With his track record, if he's saying Martin might be OK, then expect amputation tomorrow.

This ding dong is notorious for making bad diagnoses from far away. He's the clown who would say he thought Smith would never be able to play with a brace (which he did) and that he probably would never get enough nerve regeneration to play with out one (he has).

He isn’t always right but he sure did nail Wynn’s torn achilles moments after it happend.

I hate preseason games. If Goodell were truly interested in player safety, he would get rid of these games........... players, fans, and season ticket holders would rejoice.

That was a pretty obvious guess right there when you see the play and how Wynn reacted.

He's a quack. He essentially got fired by the Chargers. He had medical license issues in California. And he's notorious for getting his diagnoses wrong.

No, he is inept as HC and will ALWAYS get out coached when the stage gets big.
