Barber xrays negative....per mickey *Merge*

[SDogo]

When did Barber get injured? He scored a TD in the 2nd quarter with only 26 seconds left and looked perfectly fine afterwards.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

I thought the same.....I watch every play and did not see him act hurt

 

[Boyzmamacita]

He didn't act hurt, but didn't the announcers mention something about that second effort dive he did in the first half? That might be where it happened, but he kept playing.

Well good grief, if that last minute TD run in the second quarter in any indication of how serious the injury is then I guess we have nothing to worry about.

He did bounce really hard on that play.

 

[the big 88]

They were probably just being cautious, we had a descent lead no need to risk him further injuring himself

 

[irvin88]

any news ?

 

[newlander]

kevwun is right: he landed super hard on that somersault for a first down. What a player: hope he's ok. But I think he landed on the ball.............

 

[sbark]

Going to need a vet back there to help pickup on Jim Johnson's blitz packages next Mon. nite.......

X Rays negative......may be cartilage. More tomorrow...
Could probably put on a flack jacket and ..but why take the chance

 

[Joe71]

Micky just said on the post game show x-rays are negative.May have to do with cartilage.

 

[LarryCanadian]

Mickey just said Xray negative, although Mickey said he (mickey) speculates it could be cartiledge which can be as bad if that would be the case. At least not broken/fractured ribs seen in Xray.

 

[mullet]

is barber hurt?

mickey just said on post game that MRI is negative for broken ribs --- damage is most likely to cartlidge.

 

[Eddie]

Now I understand why we took Felix and Tashard.

 

[kojak]

Good news indeed.

 

[tomson75]

*tears of joy*

 

[FanSince61]

Spagnola just said the X-rays on his ribs were negative, but it may be a cartilage injury. They will look at it tomorrow.

I don't know much about this, is it common for players to play with a rib cartilage injury? Is it some thing that lingers all season?
