Drake Maye (knee) underwent MRI ["I was told", per Ben Volin]

Oh to be young again! =) These injury reports are a weapon for teams to use to screw with other teams also. Put whomever they want on it to the other team has to account for someone else / change up their game plan. Glad he's ok...

Did other teams even bother to gameplan for Brisk earlier this season, anyway?

"Procedural thing?" They were just going through the motions? No, they did it because he has knee pain and they wanted to rule out serious causes. I didn't claim he had a serious knee injury. Has anyone? What are you debunking?

I said the notion he has an knee injury was debunked already by AVP and the team reporters Karen gugregian said he was in the locker room with no issues whatsoever. True he probably had knee pain. Every NFL player has some sort of pain they are playing through.. some get MRIs some don't.

Uh huh. Like you know when the original injury occurred. Do you approve Wolfe's performance, or are you just talking out of your ass?

Right, because if the injury happened on Sunday they would wait 3 days until after Wednesday’s practice to do an MRI. Very logical conclusion. Rather than, something happened at end of practice, check it out at the end of practice.

Anyone else here feel (phantom) pain when watching a game and seeing a player get injured?

You know I love ya as much as any ol' dog like me can love a cat Sammy but I feel like this is a trick question since one everything always hurts and two... well... you're a cat

Of course they did don't be silly. It just happens that every team determined that putting 9 men at the line of scrimmage would neutralize the passing game. LOL

Days later and no other reporter has corroborated the MRI. Just Volin.

Didn't the team basically confirm it. They said he's fine but no denial of any MRI.

These days pretty much the normal that MRIs are done.. I remember years ago brady had one on his shoulder the team was concerned about soreness.. brady later said if it wasn't for Guerrero his career would have ended sooner.

I don’t think “not denying it” is the same as confirming it. It makes the story marginally more possible, but still no other reporter has corroborated it.

No. He asked and Mayo said he’s not getting into medical question. Volin calls that a win.

So you don't think it happened?

 

[Ring 6]

So you don't think it happened?

When Volin is the only one who says so, yeah it probably didn’t happen

L'il Bennie Volin loves being the bearer of bad Patriot news. It arouses him...

My guess is that Ben Volin was on his third edible near the end of a package of Keebler E.L. Fudge Elfwich Double-Stuffed Cookies drifting off during a Shields MRI commercial when he made up this one. Volin spends all his time watching football talk shows with Blozonians paid to fill hours with speculation and "I was a pro football player once" buttslapping. Volin is the worst.

 

[Ross12]

Apply this logic to Bill days and see if it holds up.

Volin: “The Pats are interested in trading for Justin Jefferson”

Reporters: “Bill, are you looking to trade for Jefferson?”

Bill: “I just want to talk about the players on this team”

Volin: “See! Proof! He didn’t outright deny it, so it must be true!”

You have to think of these teams the same way a government functions. Barely releasing info but when done it’s ambiguous at best. The media is what tries to make something of it. The team doesn’t have to say **** about anything if they don’t want to. The only reason they give out nuggets of info is for us fans. Well that and you also have a disinformation campaign with them as well. So and so is injured and may not play this week then you hear oh he’s playing game day.
