Encouraging news re: Gilmore

[catent]

The report said, "Gilmore actually did not suffer a knee injury and the leg injury may not be as serious as it may have looked. He’ll have tests tomorrow."

Thank goodness.

Won’t hate to see him rest and come back next year healthy and ready to be better than he was this year.

 

[Froob]

Great to hear, hope he takes the rest of the year off though.

Great to hear, he’s missed quite some time this year so hopefully better luck next year

He'd be a fool not to.

Not really in our favor for him to play anyways.

 

[holyredeemer]

Have a talk with Edelman. If he plans to play next year, shelf him the rest of the season please. Thanks!

In what way? Hoping for better draft picks?

Sounds like it's on the less severe end of the spectrum of season-ending injuries.

ACL or MCL would have been devastating. This not as much but hopefully the secondary can keep things going without him or with him not being what he was.

Torn quads and surgery. It's not good. Quad problems have a tendency to recur. When a quad tears, even partially, it means it's come off the bone. I would be very worried.

Yeah. Rather shut some guys down and try to get 6-10.

 

[203Pat]

He had a pretty good run as a Patriot.

 

[Boston Boxer]

torn quad is bad news. I think our secondary is still good without him but obviously much better with him. hopefully he recovers in the off season.

 

[Family]

It looks to me like Gilmore's a candidate to be cut.

How does this injury effect that?

It is better than a torn acl or mcl though which was originally thought.
