Exclamation Ras-I Dowling placed on Injured Reserve

Twitter @JeffPHowe

Ras-I Dowling has been placed on injured reserve with a thigh injury. His sophomore season is over.
There was a slight tear in Dowling's thigh. It's a legitimate injury. Best case, he might have been back for the playoffs.
Thigh injury is not expected to require surgery, so Dowling will be at full strength for offseason workouts. Unrelated to torn hip labrum.

Ras-IR. What a shame, he is so talented and can be great in this league. He just can't stay healthy. Next year is a make or break year, especially if we bring in more Cornerbacks.

Ok...i just moments ago raged over this kid in another thread for missing the Rams game.

Hilarious. I'm done with him. Can't wait for next season and somebody arguing that he is a rookie.

Well, I won't be defending his injury history anymore. It was overrated in college, but his pro injury problems are very much not overrated. The guy cannot stay on the field.

Glass IR beats out Chung for missing games

How the hell can a guy be so soft? It's mindblowing.

Does anybody actually see this guy developing and staying on the field for 16 weeks?

Chalk up another bust.

On a side note, Patriots need to make a corresponding roster move. Signing a Free Agent will be difficult since they're in London, so a Practice Squad promotion is most likely. Here are our candidates:

FB James Develin
WR Greg Salas
TE Alex Silvestro
T Matt Kopa
G Jeremiah Warren
DT Marcus Forston
CB Malcolm Williams

Salas or Silvestro could potentially be brought up to help our receiving corp with Hernandez down and Gronk and Welker injured. Though I'd suspect Williams to get the call. He can play CB or S in an emergency, but will most likely be a ST fill in.

It's a coaching problem.
