Some roster moves ...

Brett Jones to IR (designated to return?).
Aviante Collins joins the big boys.
Davion Davis is re-signed to the practice squad.
OL John Keenoy signed to practice squad.

My question: will we see Josh Doctson while Thielen is out?

Good to see Collins up.  Wonder if he will start seeing some time at RG.  Kline has done well, but keeps getting dinged.  Question, is this his second concussion this year?  Or was it a different injury before?

I think this is his second concussion of the year. I thought it was a bit of a cheap shot by Lawrence.

It was more that Kline let up before the whistle.  It wasn't dirty, but it was unnecessary.

Interesting on Jones; been wondering why he has been deactivated every week.  Though he has never showed up on the injury reports??????

So he was a place holder until Collins returned?

Center Brett Jones suffered a torn MCL in practice Wednesday when a defensive lineman unintentionally fell on him. He had also been working at guard with the expectation of dressing out Sunday because Josh Kline (concussion) isn't expected to play. Jones to IR today.

Thanks for the update. Kline took 2 weeks to recover from the previous concussion, didn't he?  Hope this one isn't as bad, but hopefully Collins gets up to speed quickly.

Was Collins on the practice squad?
