...they get the first down after a few plays. On the next play, the pocket collapses and Cassel tries to run. He is taken down from behind.

He needs to take a time out before the start of the next play. When they get back to live coverage, it shows a clip of him going directly to the locker room.

I hope he's OK, too. . . .

Brady hurts his knee.

Lightly-regarded backup, Cassel, subs in for the season, does pretty good.

Cassel gets traded to KC.

Lightly-regarded backup, Gutierrez, gets traded to KC.

"Full battery of x-rays. probable return. Needed help down the stairs."

I know there's still interest here for the progress of Cassel. I too wish him well (as long as he loses to NE).

Hopefully it'll be OK, but he strikes me as a pretty tough player - and he couldn't get to the next play... I dunno.

That would make for one heck of a good story, but Gutz will be 4th string if he even makes the team...Thigpen and/or Croyle would have to be your Cinderella stories...

But it is the preseason, and I think he figured "better safe than sorry."

He may very well get injured this season behind that o-line.

We'll see... pretty sure Pioli and Co. are gonna give play-by-play updates on Cassel's health. That is the Patriot Way.

Re: OT : Cassel hurt - goes to locker

I just watched the highlights on NFL.com, and I feel sick to my stomach I feel so bad for him. It looks like his leg was kinda bent the same angle Brady's was, just not in the same manner and not as badly.

I really hope he is fine. I feel so bad for him right now.

Sorry to disappoint you, but Tyler Thigpen is twice the quarterback Matt Gutierrez is.

Reportedly, x-rays were negative.

Re: OT : Cassel hurt - goes to locker

Hope he's alright. Especially because my fantasy trade for him went through last night.

Reportedly, x-rays were negative.

That's the first step to rule out any bone damage to the fibula, tibia, or ankle. The x-ray cannot detect soft tissue damage , that's where the MRI comes in. The MRI will be the next step to determine if there was any to the ACL, MCL, or PCL
