Twitter: Escobar out for year with torn achilles

[Nightman]

Nothing personal but he is never involved on offense. He can't be missed.

 

[fifaguy]

Who?

 

[Jerryrage]

I don't even know who your talking about. Is he on the 53?

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I'd be really surprised if he doesn't come back next year.

The last decade has made me stop thinking of the injury as a career ender.

 

[coult44]

According to Garrett just now in his post game presser. Sigh..

Kind of injury that happens from lack of practice.

 

[Beast_from_East]

I feel bad for the guy, but he only had 8 catches on the season for 64 yards............not a big loss from an X and O perspective.

Of course a lot of that is on the coaches that don't know how to properly use him.

 

[rags747]

Won't be ready till at least Dec nxt year which obviously means he's done for 2016.

 

[Leadbelly]

Rumor has it Witten also blew out his achilles tonight. He rubbed some dirt on it and went back in the game.

That's right. Witten brings his own dirt to games played on artificial turf, Gavin. That's how prepared he is.

/s

Sadly he was never used correctly and we have seen the last of him.

Someone else will pick him up and use him right.

 

[StylisticS]

Please tell me It wasn't on this play...

oh man...I'm sorry but I did laugh.

 

[Staubacher]

Thus endeth the Escobar era.

Look for him to excel elsewhere in 2017.

Thus endeth the Escobar era.

Look for him to excel elsewhere in 2017.

And the odds of us selecting a TE in the upcoming draft just went up.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

So will this keep him out part of next year as well?

That seems awful late into a season to be getting that injury.


Not that it matters cause he's honestly absolutely useless to this team anyway.

 

[rockj7]

I consistently forget he is a member of this football team.

Who is Escobar? Does he play for us?

 

[John813]

Watch him excel under a coach like Payton.

 

[Avery]

If we pick another TE in the second day, I'll have no choice but to burn down VR.

4th time is a charm.

 

[lwehlers]

well that is to bad for escobar. now we will have to draft another tightend with the second round pick next year to replace him.

 

[rynochop]

Is his Achilles made out of Tony Romos collarbone? Wth

 

[StarBoyz83]

I like the guy but he was/is never going to be relevant on this team.

He fits right in then. This team won't be relevant for another 10 years. Hey 3 out of the last 20 ain't bad lol
