Sammy Morris Injury - New England Patriots Forums

Since we haven't heard anything about it being too serious at this point should we just assume it's day to day.
Sunday somebody posted on here that it looked like a collarbone but if that was the case wouldn't we have heard about that by now?

I would think, especially since they are playing the Dolphins. It's not like they need the silence to help. BTW, if anyone has any insight, dish it out. I have Morris on one of my fantasy team and need to know if he is going to be a good play this week.

It would not surprise me one bit to see Morris listed as questionable through the weekend (just to affect Miami's preparation), and then placed on IR. The injury looked serious.

Damn, back to the waiver again.

Ditto.

The replay showed a pile of people coming down on top of Sammy. One possibility would be a cracked rib/ribs, which is not ALL that serious. But, after the game, someone reported seeing Sammy with his arm in a sling. That sounds like the collarbone to me. I don't know about recovery schedules but, if that's the case, he won't be playing again soon.

MJBaker, the answer to your question is "no." We wouldn't have heard about it. We don't know about Watson's injury either. We don't know when Seymour is coming back, likewise Maroney. That's the way the Patriots work. No information, not even any strong rumors. BB sees no reason to give information to the opposition. It's hard on us, but it's a very small price to pay.

Although if it were serious...one might have heard something more...and IR now vs on Sat..when any replacement is not helpful.....maybe I am more optimistic..but I think he'll be back in a few weeks...Although with Patriot injuries who knows... No word on Watson..or AD as well...

Right: we do not know. Speculation here is rampant but does no good.
Whatever we learn will be from BB via the injury report and announcements and he is a tad guarded there. If you want unsubstantiated rumor and speculation, there is always the Herald and the Globe.

I will be shocked if he goes onto IR.

I'm guessing more will be know after the Wednesday practices session. That's when stuff starts to come out in Indy. Is the same true with the Pats?
