Well that sucks. If he can't go, Ihedigbo is now the top backup at safety

In case it's still a mystery why so many of us thought it was crazy to release Meriweather and Sanders... here you go. That's what we're reduced to at safety after only one injury...

You just knew Safety was going to become problematic the moment Sanders and Meriweather were released.

Barrett scares me through the first 2 games. He looks way out of his depth right now. Hopefully that will change.

This would be a great week for lots and lots of pass rush...

This offseason, it's almost like Belichick is saying, "I'm never going to let that happen again."

I could see why they released Merriweather, particularly with his off the field issues. The Sanders release remains a head scratcher to me.

Agreed, but then again, any week would be a great week for lots and lots of pass rush...

It's gotta be pretty minor, right? Reiss is wondering IF he'll miss any time.

It does not appear he has missed a lot of games in his career, but he is one of those players that is always injured.

BB has determined that there must be one mega weak-point on the team each year so that we fans concentrate on that and don't complain about all the other weak points. Unfortunately for him, he misunderestimated us and failed to realize that complaining is our specialty and we are good enough to double-complain about safety while maintaining regular complains about everyone else.

Can't imagine this would keep him out. Just throw a cast on it.
