Brandon Carr Broken Bone in Hand

[DanManJ]

Similar to Demarco last year. Having surgery on monday. Per Garrett.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Not that big of a deal, I'd rather Claiborne, Jones, White and Patmon get the reps

 

[reddyuta]

so no Carr and Oscan -phillips rivers is going to shred us again,i am just thankful its a preseason game.

 

[IAmLegend]

Because, of course.

 

[Bungarian]

How long?

 

[Bluefin]

How long?

It's believed to be similar to DeMarco Murray's hand injury last year and he was able to play through it without missing a game.

There's no need to rush Brandon Carr back, but he should be able to play late in the pre-season and be ready to go for the regular season opener, IMO.

 

[Bowdown27]

Dez McFadden McClain Carr Dunbar oscan all out. But Garrett said none are long term. McFadden will be back at practice after San Diego. That's what Garrett said

Why is Scan missing the game?

Why is Scan missing the game?

Sore knee, considered day to day.

Dallas Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick has a sore knee and is day to day.

This might explain his lackluster camp so far. I was watching him on Thursday when I was there, and he looked pissed off and slow.

Well, then he might get a few reps on Thursday.

It's possible, but I doubt Orlando Scandrick was going to play in the game anyway.

Why push him out there with a tender knee?

There's no upside in doing so.

I bet he looks p'd offed often...he seems like he can be kind of surly.

 

[Bungarian]

Rooks and backups the first preseason game anyway.

Day to day. Knee doesn't sound too serious. But ya, doubt he plays.

Unlikely Rivers even plays.

Starters generally aren't throw into preseason game 1.

Those 2 werent gonna get much playing time regardless. 1st preseason game and 4th basically none of the starters see any real time.

I imagine the game may be low scoring. Apparently from the looks of camp, we are a lot deeper right now on D than on O

 

[AsthmaField]

It won't be a problem for him or the Cowboys. He'll be back pretty quickly.

I had a similar injury back when I was playing and never missed much of anything. They'll just put a little protection around it and it'll be fine. Really, the only issue will likely be catching the ball.

There certainly are plenty of camp bodies at CB to take the reps. White and Jones can probably use as many reps as they can get.

If the Cowboys were considering cutting Carr because of the performances of Jones, Patmon, White, the injury would make that much more difficult.

From what I've seen, Jones looks like the best CB in camp and Patmon looks that the guy that had the most success covering Beasley.
