Wow, that blows...Really needed him, hope he gets better and gets his zip back

Ugh the only really exciting non-defensive player and he is going to be out at lesat 2 weeks?

Very Frustrating! Lets hope he comes back the way he left.

Devin Thomas would sure come in handy. I'd like to see Austin though, if he's in 'The Plan', who knows?

I'm guessing no one actually read the link. He will be out at most two weeks (barring any setback). Banks and his agent said yesterday he's doing well and he's already moving around. Possible that all he misses is the Eagles game

Was it just some kind of scope procedure? Doesn't sound major. Maybe they were just removing some scar tissue or something like that.

They are making it sound minor but the way he has been playing, I don't think they would risk surgery at this point unless it was leading up to something more serious. Better to address it now then later.

this was a surprise as I don't recall any news of him being hurt or limited. I know injuries can surface after games & in practice. Sucks that it comes right after his biggest game.

He kept us in the detroit game. The kick return blocking was great, hope that can continue. Not expecting much on punt returns w/him out.

Devin Thomas ?, who needs him when we have Joey Galloway AND Roydell Williams. We should have traded Moss and Cooley for draft picks and sured up our K/P spots for next year.
