I need to add an "ugh" reaction.

Feel so bad for that kid. So many injuries. Potential unrealized. He looked like he'd taken a step forward in his third year, but I don't think he'll ever play past his rookie contract unless he makes a miraculous recovery.

Did we hear anything about that since he ended up on IR 2 weeks ago ? Or is this the first time ?

People were making "foxboro flu" jokes if I remember correctly.

Man he's been hurt so much, causing him to miss so much time, that I thought this was about Phillip. I thought damn he got hurt too.
Sucks for Derek.

Seems like a good person.

Lets hope karma is in turn, good to him.

Probably a great guy, good luck in your future endeavors. He’s not made for NFL football

Foxborough Flu, year three.

I hope he keeps trying to play until someone tells him he can't. He doesn't want to be one of those guys who looks back and says I coulda, shoulda...

Given the plague that has been sweeping through the quarterback ranks I was fully expecing to see Phil.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery to Derek Rivers

He really hasn’t had a lot of luck since being drafted. I think BB does like him though. Hope he has managed to save some of that $$ and used it wisely.

Time to cut bait with him

Was a player I once had high hopes for. Regardless of position (if you are “injury” or “he never showed anything”), I’m not sure why you keep him. After this year, I’d happily move on.

Seems like a good guy, but he is likely to never contribute in the NFL.

What affect does this have on the defense?

Bummer, Maine doesn't produce a lot of pro athletes so I'm definitely claiming him as one of ours since he was born there. Makes it an extra bummer that he can't seem to get healthy.

None, he was already on IR, and even if he hadn't been would be pretty far down the depth chart.

Damn! This kid can't catch a break!

You can thank the Maine Principals Assn for that, they are incredibly detrimental to schoolboy sports in this state.
