Douglas Shoulder Injury?

[Love The Drake]

How bad can it be can we please catch some luck.

 

[Dr. Mind Flayer]

I mean if he was still able to practice, albeit in a limted capacity, it shouldn't be that bad. Hopefully.

Time for Pat’s receivers to wear bigger shoulder pads. Gesicki, Thornton and Douglas all with shoulder injuries.

 

[WinstonSmith]

If they were playing Sunday he would be listed as questionable - shoulder, which could mean shoulder replacement surgery scheduled for Tuesday or he had a minor ouchie. Hope this helps.

You’re always such a PollyAnna.

The scrubs are getting ready for game three... expect to see the scrubs and the starters rest and recover.

perhaps one thing we can all agree on is that Douglas most likely will be too valuable as one of the teams WR to play ST.
one of the reasons I had Bolden on my 53 man roster was due to his return game, and upside at DB.

 

[Rob0729]

If he is practicing, it ain't a big deal. They would hold him out even if it wasn't something major if they thought it could affect him going forward.

Who would have thought Douglas would already be more valuable than Welker and Edelman without ever playing a snap in the NFL

 

[RobertWeathers]

He'll be fine. Hes on the lower practice field which means hes getting better.

Yeah, if Douglas doesn't play ST, it will be because they already have an All-Pro caliber return man in Marcus Jones, not because he's "too valuable" to play there.

if Marcus is pressed into playing starter snaps at CB (Jack Jones suspended or Jon Jones injury) I doubt he is the return man

They should have options now. If the defense comes off the field and they were out there a long time and they’re gassed they could roll Douglass or Bolden (if healthy) out there to return kicks.

A fresh set of legs is always the best option.

Both very true. Just saying that his role (or possibly lack of one) on ST isn't intrinsically tied to how the team values him on offense.

This looks to be the play he got hurt on:

Van Ness got all is weight on top of him and drove him into the turf:



Looks like he was holding his right arm limp after he got up.

I think you just weren’t going to see many starters after the first quarter and Douglas is already in that group.

The bench warmers will play in game three, they’ll keep Douglas under wraps until the regular season. No reason to prepare opponents to be ready to defend him.

I don't disagree. But there have been several reports saying he's dealing with a shoulder injury (he's been limited at practice) and that play looks like the one it may have happened on.

I think you are correct. not sure he took any other hits that would have him on the practice field but doing conditioning work
