Zack Martin potentially hurt ***bad stinger per team***

Not to make this bigger than it is, but stingers are serious business. A stinger in effect ended Daryl Johnston's career (he was more prone to them after his neck surgery), and severely limited Mean Joe Greene in his final seasons as a Steeler. DeMarcus Ware has been plagued with stinger issues for the past six seasons.

Fortunately, there is a big difference between a guard having one and a defensive lineman.

Tackling, or getting tackled, typically causes stingers. Shoulder to shoulder contact at high speed. Blocking from close range usually doesn't result in that type of hit.
 
Yeah, after Spencer's "It's just a sore knee" debacle, I've grown leery of the injury status updates around VR.

Exactly. But also watching the video the way he went down is worrisome.

I'm thinking he misses a few regular season games.
 
OK JG lets close camp down for a couple of days. Go to the beach or something. At this point EVERYONE seem to be getting hurt or ding up missing time for a couple of days.

When they went to the beach a year or two ago, Randle tried to dive in when the water was only 2 feet deep. They might not be safe anywhere.

Good news !!!
 
Bumped into Zack Martin, asked if he was ok and shook his head yes. -Todd Archer

I love how he worded that tweet to get the maximum amount of eyeballs on it. Most people would say he "nodded his head yes", but "shook his head" could go either way. Well done, Archer.

At least he can shake his head! I would be really worried if he couldn't do that.

I can't believe that Archer attempted to injure Martin further by bumping into him!
