Aikman just said that he heard Jones has torn ligaments in his ribs...but apparently that must count as an injury to Parcells

Did he say ribs or wrist?

I believe he said wrist. Depends on where it is and what hand. Still not good news though.

........I guess it most of been ribs. That's a loooonng injury for a FB player.

julius jones - torn ligaments in his ribs? that's what troy is suggesting. i didn't think he looked like he was "winded" monday nite.

You could tell he was hurt way before he was taken out.

It sounds like the same thing happened to Peterman. :mad:

remember he looked bothered during consecutive plays and tried to "tap helmet"? - it didn't look like your typical case of "wind knocked outta him". that would explain alot.

It's gotta be his ribs. Jones suited up for the game and wore extra padding to protect his ribcage. He wasn't wearing any protection on his wrists, hands, etc., or even wraps.

Keith Davis... just... demolished that sweep four yards in the backfield.

He was holding his ribs Monday during his last drive.

Can't say I've ever heard of torn rib ligaments before. I don't think ribs have any ligaments. OTOH, there are quite a few important ligaments in the wrist. When he got up from that injury, he was holding his arm kind of funny - that probably what has happened.

No offense, but Parcells is a ferking moron sometimes.

Seems like BP needs to pay attention when someone says that they need to come out unless they have a history of wussing out.

Geez!

Very thick ligaments between and surrounding ribs. Also cartilage between breast bone and ribs.
