Irv Smith meniscus surgery

@"Waterboy" said: There is not any confirmed timeline on his downtime.  The entire season is not lost because of one TE.  Conklin played quite well when called upon last year as well.  If Smith is out the entire year, then I guess we can start to worry a little.  Until then, people need to settle down.   He probably wasn't vaccinated anyway.  :)

Plus as a fan, I got a desire to see the entire offense give it a go. This'll have to wait weeks now.

What did he say to insult someone?  Making fun of the vaccine at the end?

He edited the post in this thread. I'll quote his bull shit next time.

I was hoping for a breakthrough season for him, still could happen, we'll wait and see how significant the repair is.

Football and injuries go together.  We'll see what transpires.  If he chooses the least invasive procedure, he will likely be out the entire year, but my guess is he'll want to see the field and just decide to have it mended.  I think Peterson went through something similar years back?

I was thinking about AP too....

He healed in like a week or 2??? I dont recall if it was a similar injury or not? Plus that dude healed like a transformer.

Mike Zimmer said Irv Smith will have surgery on his meniscus injury he sustained vs. Kansas City by team doc Dr. Larsen. Doesn’t know how long he’ll be out for - was asked about two timetables: 4ish weeks or 6-8 months. Said he hasn’t heard 6-8 month timetable.

Every fucking year with this team, with this franchise it is something.  It is NEVER normal around here which is amazing because the ownership has been great for the last 15 years.  

There is no doubt in my mind this team will get fucked over by unvaccinated players this season and a whole year of promise with a ton of talent will be a waste.  

Year after year, feels like a cosmic sign to give up rooting for this team and watching this league.  Find a different hobby to enjoy that isn't an annual exercise in sadism & masochism

TE Tyler Conklin (hamstring) has helmet back and appears to be doing some work. Good news as Irv Smith Jr. heads for knee surgery.

Still no Barr, Darrisaw, Mattison, Nwangwu, Metellus, Chisena, Samia.

WR Chad Beebe and S Luther Kirk not spotted.

Darrisaw on the other hand, really hard to not be down on this kid and this situation.  How this injury situation wasn't evaluated before drafting him, I'll never know.  

Couldn't we have swung a first for Zeus Jr and not had to worry about the $35 million tinman's backside?  Looks like another 1st round bust for Spielman.  Trade firsts for proven commodities and stop striking out (Kalil, Ponder, Floyd, Treadwell, Hughes, Gladney)

Conk will have us covered until ISJ comes back.  I wish we knew what we had in Westbrook because 3 WR is going to be key now.
