Josh Ball out 2 months

[charron]

And now you don't have to worry about waiving/cutting him. In 8 weeks of all are healthy they can worry about it then or stash him on ir

Does that mean they can’t cut him like they rightfully should?

Welcome TJ Bass

I think bass would have beat him out anyway so really the injury may help ball in the long run

He’s probably out for the season lol
Every year we have an injury that takes a month or so that turns into a whole year.
Like a second PS

Good thing we just made a splash trade for a back-up QB.

Odds weren't in his favor to make the team anyway.

 

[Praxit]

..slot opened up for Richards or Bass.

Ball was one of the two best OL during the Preseason with Richards being the other. He was a lock to make the roster. They will likely keep him on the 53 for a day then go on IR to return later.

Clearly this makes keeping Bass a no brainer now, but all of the backups outside of Richards shouldn't buy any homes in the area just yet.

We should just cut Ball and let him focus on his real passion….finding that ex GF of his.

They could cut him outright and stash him on IR, but he would be subject to waivers. If they want to avoid the waiver wire, they'll have to keep him on the initial 53-man roster for a day before putting him on IR, which will probably expose a younger player to waivers.

this is just the beginning of our OL injuries...do we not learn from our past?

 

[Hardline]

2 months could easily turn into 4 months.

Cowboys injuries always turn into more serious injuries .

I have never heard of this type of injury...hmm lets see...between the hip and groin area?

My guess...upper thigh
○ back of the thigh - just below the buttock; or
○ front of the thigh - just below the abdomen; or
○ inside of the thigh - next to the male genitals

Gelhken had him among a group that were possibly on the way out. He has pretty good sources.

It is a league wide thing. We need to have good luck with Richards and Bass.

Yup. Except I'm thinking they want to keep the option of him returning open for now. Just in case they need him but it'll be off to or if they don't.

 

[RS12]

Was he hurt prior to this play? If not this is the epitome of bing put on skates right here.

 

[Rockport]

Seems if the OL injuries continue Dallas will need to start looking at a mobile starting QB.

Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak DAAAAAAKKKKKK!!!!
