News: Latest on LVE injury

[_sturt_]

Correct me if I'm wrong but this conversation as-if LVE was drafted in the 1st round even though considered an injury risk seems to be misplaced.... I remember zero concerns, and just looked it up to make sure I wasn't just completely brain cramping on that.

I vaguely remember after the injury year 2/3 news broke the cowboys knew about the issue but still took him. Remember around the draft and the red medical flags popped up. That was the spinal issue being leaked around the nfl iirc.

I don't even vaguely remember that. Anyone who would like to educate me, please feel welcome... my intellectual humility abounds, so no problem learning that I missed something.

Barr is a pass rushing outside LB, not a middle linebacker.

He’s not even a pass rushing outside LB.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

A lot of folks have theorized his neck issues were the cause of his decline post-2018.

If there’s any truth to that (which I think there is), he may be done for good.

Anthony hitchens.


Almost reminds me of dat Nguyen’s exit. Neck issues that never went away.

Having an MRI today and they are “concerned”. Haven’t seen it posted but this is a huge blow if he can’t play folks…

Heard anything on Armstrong?

 

[big dog cowboy]

Hope we get good news.

 

[conner01]

It was always going to just be a matter of time with LVE.

I hope for his health, but the Cowboys need to finally move on.

Sadly for him this season was gonna get him a nice payday and that just went away

Heard anything on Armstrong?

He seemed to be walking fine off the field but I got nada. He was supposedly in a walking boot after the game last week but he evidently got over that.

 

[conner01]

Time to figure out what they got with Clark and Cox… Barr looks like he should have retired 2 years ago. Joseph looks to be flamed out before he ever flashed anything!

Clark has shown real potential

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Dude was having a great season.

But I think we just saw his last game.

He needs to stop screwing around with this. Not worth it.

Agree, not worth it at all.

It looked like his knee in the replay but I didn’t see him come back out to the bench later
He may have and I just didn’t see it

 

[DasTex]

Dang, hope he's ok
Definitely agree he needs to hang it up. It's not worth his future health.

With that said, the defense is falling apart...be it injuries, fatigue or just bad play.

Probably gonna have to win via shootouts from here on out and that doesn't look too promising with an INT happy QB.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Turns out to be a shoulder issue not his neck.

 

[SiCk_DiAbLo]

Anyone see what happened on the play, all I seen was LVE jump in the air like Superman...

 

[exciter]

Clark has shown real potential

Yup! Going to be interesting to see where he’s at after a training camp!

[CT Dal Fan]

So basically it's probably a pinched nerve, which can linger around if I'm not mistaken. With the Cowboys basically locked in as the 5th seed it might be wise to shut LVE down until the playoffs.
