I read somewhere yesterday that Spaight's concussion was bad enough to miss a few games and could last longer, so they decided to put him on IR instead of risking a roster spot. Can't find the article.

This is a guess on my part: I think that Spaight is a person who made himself a draftable player through dedication to hard work and extensive film study. He is not particularly fast, yet he always seemed to be in right place in his college film that I saw. He's a blue collar player and the Skins have got to love that. I'm thinking that his work ethic and potential made it hard for them to cut him. We need to remember that we're building a team and more time and effort needs to go into player development in order to build depth. With that in mind, SM is going to use every trick in the book to stash players. BTW, Beathard and Gibbs were masters at that.

I think he needs to know our defense inside and out, study NFL offenses, and build up his body to succeed in the NFL. He might even be able to improve his speed and quickness a little. Let's hope he'll be ready to rock 'n roll next season.

I watched this kid play while here at Arkansas and he works hard and has a great motor. I will enjoy watching him play for the skins in the coming years.
HTTR!!!

I'd wager the injury is legit.
