Rapsheet: Tyron not expected to play Sunday?

Another season where our supposed best O lineman isn't helping us much.

 

[Bullflop]

Whoa . . . if true, it looks like Terence Steele might be the one to take Tyron's place!
Not good news but reality sometimes isn't. First, he'll play, then he won't.

Obviously, the staff tried their best to get him prepared to play and it didn't work out.

 

[stinkface]

SI says he is playing. Bottom line is we will know during warm ups who is doing what. I wouldn't be surprised if he plays today and then sits Thanksgiving day. It might be a case of either or.

Tyron is a Hall Of Famer but the guy is held together with glue and tape

 

[Risen Star]

Safety and protection.

It's what's really important these days.

 

[baltcowboy]

The guy is 3rd best offensive linemen in football this season. Played the same amount of games as Gregory and way more games then Tank. You all want to cut him?

[Brooksey]

If that's the case it's probably not a good game to start McGovern. Now the whole left side becomes a target and potential liability.
Not that McGov can't hold his own but he may miss a few assignments on his first start plus Steele can beat on the outside.

Not good.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

So.........we're starting Steele, McGovern, Biadasz, Martin, and Collins ( let's go lol )

 

[nightrain]

Need him for the Saints game. That DL is a challenge.

 

[Cowboy-33]

These guys better be full go when we get to the playoffs. We can’t put a bunch of guys made of glass out there when it counts.

 

[Daillest88]

Wth?

 

[Carson]

Typical 3 games missed. I expect him back after NO

Typical 3 games missed. I expect him back after NO

Often said at this point in his career, if we can get a min 12-14 games season from him........we're doing pretty good. We're never getting 16-17 games.......

 

[Zordon]

Where did this ankle issue come from?

 

[Titleist]

Ankle injury? I thought he was dealing with back issues...?

 

[Carson]

Ankle injury? I thought he was dealing with back issues...?

It is bone spurs in the ankle

 

[Jipper]

Literallythe same discussions as last year with a different injury....have loved this guy but time to replace....which we also said the last few years

It's groundhogs day unfortunately

IMO…. As soon as it was diagnosed as bone spurs, the team should have gone with surgery. Yes, he would be out 4-6 weeks, but when he came back he would be 100%

Now— with their “management” approach— he has contributed nothing for 3 games, and is still obviously hindered and hampered by pain— and we are still 4-6 weeks away from having him be at optimal health bc spurs don’t just magically go away lol.

This team drags it’s feet on medical decisions and crosses it’s fingers and hopes for the best. Just bite the bullet and do the surgery already
