It's been well over a week. and STILL NO x-ray or MRI. Everyone keeps telling us it;s not serious but at what point do you do a further exam just to make sure? What I fear is this goes on another week, then they do an exam and it shows they missed something that could have been taken care of much earlier.

Thoughts?

He got an MRI today.

I agree with you tho, this team seems to handle injuries very slowly.

Stephen semi-calls him out last year, now this. Mo might just be a little soft.

Do you really want him to "tough it out" on a bum knee? I would rather he get it right first. I don't want them to take a chance on a knee injury.

Good cover corner...but he can't tackle worth a damn. He's as bad in that area as escobar is at blocking.

His lack of physicality leads me to think he's a bit soft.

What did Stephen say?

"Mo Claiborne's got to get out there," he told the radio station. "The times he's been out there, it's been impressive. But he certainly can't make the club in the tub, if you will. He's got to get out there. It's time. We got to start having a mentality that we're going to play through things."

MRI was done and there was no structural damage however you want him ready for week 1 so no need to rush him back... Calm down people, LOL

So...there's not really a Claiborne situation, after all? Or, at least, the situation is that there's not any structural damage?

To hear Dez tell it, he's becoming quite a good CB this camp. I'd prefer he get as many reps as possible, obviously, but the guy's a good player for us, and we're lucky to have him. Well worth the cost we gave up to land him as far as I'm concerned.

Well we was compared to Deion Sanders. If he can cover half as good as Deion did, we will be good.

Very soft.

Wasn't worth a top 10 selection

So....can you tell us where everyone else from last year's class finish their career? Who is going to the Hall? When will they finish playing? Which one of the players get into broadcasting? Who goes on to be a position coach?

I'm just asking because you seem very good at seeing the future 1 year into the draft classes' pro career.

wow, people IMMEDIATELY turn sour on someone at the slightest provocation....maybe, just maybe, they want him ready for the giants game and were not concerned with him getting beaten up by Dez in practice every day...not worried

I'm glad to hear they did the MRI. At least WR know there isn't any damage.

thank you, I understand we have to talk about something. But making a post every time someone misses a PRE SEASON game is over the top. Yes ppl are going down but 95 percent of the folks will be ready for week 1. Correct me if im wrong but we've only lost one player for the season. Vets are smart they know how to take a sprained knee and milk it. We will be ready for New York.
