Jerry - Overshown will require season-ending surgery

[kumizi]

Really sucks. Ideally, you need great players at each level to be a good defense. With his injury history, the LB core is a big question mark.

Just a brutal hit on every level… can’t catch a break this season

Thx Dr Jerry

And just like that, LB becomes a need again in the draft. Kendricks is likely gone, Overshown may never play again at this level, and Liafau Marist may still develop but he has been just ok at best so far.

Add LB now to the very loooooooong list of needs his team has.

And here some of us thought the curse had been lifted with Jimmy's Ring of Honor induction.

WERE acting like this injury occurred in week 3!! Sheesh

This was a potential player who had a chance to be outstanding. He may never be the same. We just don't know.

Nick Bolton needs to come home.

I kind of saw this coming with his play style . It’s unsustainable

Isn't all linebacker play unsustainable over 17 games?

It'll be interesting to see what we choose to do coachingwise. I still think Parsons would benefit from being a 3-4 OLB. If we hired a coach who went to that system, we'd have Parsons at one OLB spot, possibly Kendricks/Williams at the other one and probably Liufua at one ILB spot. Another ILB and some depth definitely would rise in priority.

Jerry “Skeletor” Jones laughs at our misery

 

[Shannon1]

That is no surprise.

The only question is how much will his injury impact 2025.

Want play in 2025

 

[MonsterD]

So in 2026 we can expect Jaylon Smith 2.0? Ugh this is the worst news ever.

you saw a fatty rolling up his leg?

There is no news. He will have surgery and will start his rehab. That's it. We won't know anything until he goes through his recovery. He has a history of coming back strong.

Lol

 

[tomokawan]

Feel bad for him. We now have such a list of needs that we just have to draft best player available besides QB in the first round. LB's, RB, WR, Safety, RT, Guard, Coach, Special teams coach, OC, DC, GM, etc..

 

[Ranching]

I feel so bad for the kid. Was having a spectacular season and hasn’t even scratched the surface of his potential. I pray he makes a full recovery and has a long prosperous career.

And then some get pissed when they try to maximize their salary....this kid may never get a chance at a big payday....reality is a beech

 

[Einstein]

Have to proceed like he's not an option. Team still needs two starting LB next year, on top of everything else.

Maybe, the rookie we have might be something. And we really only play 2 LBs in most packages.

 

[Ranching]

Thanks for the update, Coach Jerry.

He's the one signing his checks.....and it's GM not coach
