Zeke Not Practicing

[MRV52]

Put some dirt on it. He is okay just resting him doesn't need to practice.

Todd Gurley just retired.

Can't believe he's only 28. Hasn't played since 2020 though.

 

[sacase]

Rest zeke this week. Let that knee heal

 

[Joe Realist]

Give him a full 2 weeks to rest it. Pollard can handle the main back role against Chicago.

And Play Davis too

I would like to see Malik Davis play

in the next preseason game ...or meaningless games perhaps ? ...

 

[loublue22]

So many other teams pull RBs out of their behinds. His blocking would be missed most.

 

[quickccc]

Pre-cautionary measure.

Still so very fortunate as it only looked worse than what it was.
Most would've been ACL and out of remaining year.

Didn't he return to power his way into goal line for a rushing TD ?

 

[jrumann59]

He took a heck of a shot on that knee. He managed to play through but it had to hurt Monday morning. Hopefully, it just needs some rest.

Worst case, I hope, he misses or plays limited snaps Sunday then the bye week heals it up. I don't want to see what we saw last season.

hyper extensions can take a 2-3 weeks to work out. I bet he can barely bend his knee right now.

 

[Rayman70]

Let Malik Davis carry the ball with Tony this week. Suit Zeke ^ but use him sparingly. Save him.

 

[Praxit]

..he came back and played fine.

I bet its just common sense rest. Rest best for healing.

 

[glimmerman]

He is seriously tough. Maybe he plays limited snaps Sunday. Don’t give Moore a reason to throw all day.

 

[J12B]

Give him a full 2 weeks to rest it. Pollard can handle the main back role against Chicago.

As a Tony Pollard fantasy owner, I concur.

 

[zrinkill]

Just being cautious ..... He will play come Sunday ...... Zeke is tough as hell

 

[USArmyVet]

To think James Robinson from Jacksonville, a 24-year old RB with a cap hit of $550K (RFA in 2023) and in 2-1/2 seasons has over 2,000 yards rushing, over 600 yards receiving, and 22 total TD's was traded to the Jets for a 6th round draft pick.....and would have made a quality 'what of' addition this year and a possible compliment to Pollard next season if Zeke is traded/released.

Those are the kind of moves that make teams contenders.

Yep, I'm sure it took some swelling after the game and hopefully he got iced asap after the game to minimize swelling to keep it flexible for rehab. I hate to run Pollard too much or depend on a passing game with our current personnel. Get your 3rd back in or get on the waiver wire and let zeke rest.

 

[Bagman]

These are the kind of situations where a quality, experienced #3 back would be great. I like Malik Davis but he has basically ZERO game experience. They wouldn't trust him if he had to play a full load Sunday. Then why is he on the roster?

 

[nightrain]

The hit was legit

The hit was legal, but the Lions seem to have a propensity to go hard at the knees when they tackle.

 

[RonnieT24]

Rest Zeke please. Nobody wants to see him limping around the rest of the season. I think we can jigger it to get through Chicago.. Or maybe just let Dak throw it 45 times and try to stay away from short yardage situations.

 

[Typhus]

So its nearly impossible to find injury updates on Gallimore, but MM wants to scare the heck out of Cowboys Nation with a Zeke knee injury that he doesn't feel is very relevant.

 

[Typhus]

Todd Gurley just retired.

Like two years ago..
Remember CJ Anderson off the street, that was Gurlys last days.
