Hey guys just a heads up. Mort will be on the Dan Patrick show today talking about CP's injury. Once I hear it I'll try to recap what he said.:thumb:

he will play week one I am sure. I just hope they dont try to push back and play again in preseason.

In a nutshell...

The ligaments around the shoulder have stretched and they have to get them to tighten up to keep the shoulder stable. Should ready in three weeks. Mort said Skins were 'nervous' about the injury.

I doubt he will even dress for the remaining preseason games.

They'll just rehab the hell out of him the next 3 weeks and rest him. I don't think his status for week 1 will be in doubt.

While we're at it I wouldn't let Betts see much meaningless action either.

I've had that injury before. It gets a little sore and swollen up, the main problem is the joint is prone to separation again over the next few days and weeks. He'll be totally ready to go by opening day.

lets hope not. I listened to Mike Golic this morning describe the injury ( he did the same thing) and he played through it and had surgery in the offseason. he said bing a running back (as opposed to D-Line) it should not affect him as much as it did him so he should be fine.

I won't say it's a blessing in disguise, because it's not, but let's look at the silver lining. At least he won't (SHOULDN'T) be playing in any more preseason games this year where he could have gotten hurt worse.
