WR Malcolm Mitchell on Injured Reserve

[Sciz]

Weird. I don't think they would have risked putting Karras through waivers if they had known this spot was available, so something must have happened with Mitchell in practice this week.

This is what happens when you go for "value" picks with injury histories... F###

He's injured because O'Shaughnessy fell into his leg vs Texans in pre-season.

 

[Kontradiction]

He's coming back, but the WR injuries are already beginning to remind of 2015. Hopefully Gronk, Cooks, and Hogan remain healthy.

Well gotta hope Dorsett can pick up the offense as well. Does this mean he might play tonight?

 

[Mike the Brit]

No Austin Carr. But the special teams are going to be awesome.

Source? I hope this is true

All we need now is for Dola or Dorsett to get hurt returning punts. Hope they can get Ayers up to speed quickly. BB just had another WR in for a tryout. Former Patriot, Ebert, I think.

Hey megatron....want to unretire?

Easy. That pick - a fourth rounder - was essential in getting them that SB win ! Like Stork before him : ANY fourth round pick that truly contributes to a SB is an AWeSOMe pick !

Wonder if it's the return designation. If not...something is up with the training staff. ACLs, this.

I'd be doing some digging.

Mitchell came into the league with no problems.

Duh. That was supposed to say KNEE problems.

 

[Bruins29]

I guess that answers the question - Will Dorsett dress tonight.

 

[Uptown]

He's injured because O'Shaughnessy fell into his leg vs Texans in pre-season.

Did the Chiefs conspire for O'Shaughnessy to be traded to the Pats, solely to injure Malcolm Mitchell, get cut & have Mitchell IR'd the same day we play the Chiefs???????

Season over?

When do the Sox report for spring training?

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Well the wideouts better stay healthy. Hogan will be our biggest receiver at 6'1.

Should've kept Austin Carr, that was a big gamble. Now you go from a guy who knew the offense to a guy who has been on the team 6 days. This is horrendous news. WR went from a strength depthwise to scary thin.

Carr is slow and unathletic. Nowhere near the times and measurables Edelman amendola or welker had coming into the league

Give me Dorsett any day of the week

 

[KDPPatsfan85]

The dorsett trade is making a lot more sense now

 

[Ross12]

I do hope he returns though it makes the WR group a big question mark for the short term. Cooks, Hogan and Amendola are certainly capable of being an extremely good starting 3 WRs, but there's really just Dorsett who can barely know the offense yet and has no chemistry with Brady. It helps having Gronk and Allen (and Hollister somewhat) at TE too, and of course all the RBs with receiving abilities, but it's definitely a very up-in-the-air situation.

That said, overall the offense is still extremely skilled, and Brady is still leading it. It's not Dobson and Thompkins out there. TB12 will find a way.

Mitchell will be missed please let the injuries stop.
We need some receivers who's available for trade.
