X ray negative for Jimmy G


at least that!
still might be the end of the season - as a starter - for him
like a commet: shined so bright, died soon after

Thank god. Hope he can heal up until Thursday.

 

[Horace's Ivories]

so much for rumor chatter

 

[JoeSixPat]

That's great!

(Side note: The medical profession really needs to get a grip on this "negative is good" terminology - I'm sure there've been more than a few families who learned the hard way that "positive" ain't so positive.)

I still think he's done for the season which sucks because they now have a very short week to try to get Brissett ready. The good news is that his trade value will be as high as it can possibly get.

 

[Joey007]

Even if true, still have my doubts he will be ready for Thursday. The game Thursday looks like it may be bleak, but its one we can afford to lose if need be.

Yup. If anything his performance today sealed his value if we did decide to trade him.

 

[gtfanboy]

Any chance he can be back for Thursday?

Well, that means there's not a break - doesn't necessarily mean much in terms of him playing next week (he looked like he was in a helluva lot of pain)

 

[pwes]

Pretty sure there is no chance you will see him out there Thursday. Without knowing his prognosis Buffalo would likely be soonest but I would really estimate several weeks at best.

 

[IcyPatriot]

That's great news ... now we await the MRI.

AC joint sprains are not season ending, often can return to same game. However, when throwing shoulder on QB, tough task to return today.

Relax he will be ready for thursday

 

[primetime]

I sincerely doubt he plays next week. The only question is who they sign to back up Brissett. Smart money is on Hoyer.

 

[patsbrasilpatriotas]

No

Why not?

 

[Gronkowski123]

maybe next week against the bills????

 

[long distance]

Any chance he can be back for Thursday?

Better prepare for:
No Brady
No Gronk
No High
No Jimmy
No problem

 

[primetime]

The upshot is that we're merely back to questioning the ability of our starter for two games until the best QB in football is available. There's worse places to be.

Matt Hasselbeck is the guy I'd be calling. A veteran who should be able to avoid doing stupid things.
