    Just saw this on twitter. Ben Volin. Apparent leg injury. Hopefully nothing serious. Please post updates here if anything of note comes up. We are screwed if he is out an extended period of time.

    The problem is you can still limp off the field with some big time injuries.

    The suspense is gonna KILL me!!!

    Everyone gather around, take a knee and the hand of the person next to you . . .

    That would be probably be the most devastating injury this team could suffer. Maybe even worse than Marshall.

    Hopefully he's ok.

    I suspect HC Sparano is far more concerned than we are, the immortal Lydon Murtha..or Jake Long?

    So just to talk a little "what if" does Vernon go back to the left side if he misses time?

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just be a twisted ankle or a cramp. I would accept a sprain at this point. Just no knee or season ending injuries PLEASE!!!

    Noooooooooooo..dude is barely quick enough to play RT, LT would get Henne wounded.

    Might as well either start Pat White and keep Henne healthy, OR we master the art of the 1-step drop passing game.

    Well away from here
    The thing is if it is an high ankle sprain or anything, at least he has some time before the season starts to heal. Those can be a 4-6 week injury so whatever it is at hopefully it is something in that 4-6 week range or less.

    Prior to the tb preseason game i thought Gardner could be a fairly decent first option at LT. Probably Carey first and Gardner at RT. Although long term i reckon Jerry could move to LT.

    Well, at least we get Murtha some more snaps at left tackle against the 1st stringers this time to see what he can do.

    How big is that injury to Nate Garner right now? ****ing huge.

    Left tackle Jake Long, the former No. 1 overall pick and the anchor of the offensive line, left practice about 15 minutes early with an apparent right leg injury. Though he was able to walk off the field under his own power, Long walked gingerly and favored his right leg.

    That was from Volin's article. / blog. Nothing new there.

    I was going to say this last night at the board meaning what if we lost Long or Carey. We would be in big trouble. I decide not to even bring it up but I thought it. I feel somehow strangely responsible. :shifty:
    I sure as hell hope he is okay.

    Ken Lavicka (KLV on twitter) said it was the least profound limp of Training Camp, so perhaps this is merely chatter?

    I really want to chalk this up to a writer trying to make more of it than it is in order to get followers on twitter.
    Maybe
    I hope..

    I'm going to assume the worse until proven otherwise. Which means I'm ready to jump off a cliff...
