Twitter: Malik Davis receiving hip surgery on Saturday

[Reid1boys]

They went short at RB and are now punished for it.

are they?

 

[zrinkill]

Always something with this guy ........ feel bad for him.

It is fairly apparent that we do not have a RB2 at this time, right? Heaven forbid Javonte goes down with any sort of injury, the current guys we have are nowhere near RB1's. Do we not need to act sooner rather than later? A quick search came up with the following; I assume they are still unsigned?

Notable Available Running Backs

• • Joe Mixon (Former Houston Texans / Cincinnati Bengals)- don't think he is an option due to foot
  • Kareem Hunt (Former Kansas City Chiefs / Houston Texans)
  • Austin Ekeler (Former Washington Commanders)- healthy, but for how long?
  • Antonio Gibson (Former New England Patriots)- worth a shot
  • Raheem Mostert (Former Las Vegas Raiders / Miami Dolphins)- not on LAR? Worth a shot if not
  • Alexander Mattison-
  • Miles Sanders-
  • Cam Akers [1, 2, 3, 4]

Kareem Hunt is still available ,practice squads have slim pickings.

More likely that they go with what they have and bring back Phil Mafah.

After telling him that they may not want him back on the PS? And now, the expectation is that he is promoted to RB2? That would be a bold move, lol

 

[DandyDon52]

that is the 2nd guy who suddenly need surgery ! 1st was tyler smith.
Just out of the blue, not even playing a game and lose 2 guys.

bring duece back and let him return kicks and punts, he might break one.

Wrong.

I didn't say he would be the 2.

Bring Deuce Vaughn back

I'm hoping they give Zeke Elliot another call up.

Our long snapper is fine…

I like this idea. He knows the offense. At least sign him to the PS. I wish we could bring back Blue but just to the PS and not to the 53.

Malik Davis receiving

This is a family forum.

 

[gimmesix]

I wouldn’t panic much. I’m more concerned about special teams than I am RB2

Emari isn’t terrible and Izzy will get promoted. Likely means Mafah comes back to the PS

That's what I would expect, with us signing another player to the practice squad. Could be a vet or a player like Mafah.

 

[Kingofholland]

Feel for the guy, looked like he was finally getting his chance and then it's taken away.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Damn... I feel for Malik. Just when he was really making a name for himself.

Everyone moves up. Emari to the 46, Izzy to the 53, and they'll probably make a PS addition — my guess is Mafah.

 

[big dog cowboy]

They went short at RB and are now punished for it.

How so?

 

[VaqueroTD]

Damn. Life is definitely not fair. Davis finally gets his shot to start the year on the roster with significant snaps and now his career is probably over.

Bo knows RBs don't come back from hip replacements.

Mostert is 34, have to think he's pretty cooked. I think out of anyone on that list Sanders makes the most sense.
