I would like to ask for the Huddles help.

First off, I'm sorry for doing this but the Huddle has become an extension of my family of sorts.

That said a close friend of mine came close to losing his life on the job. While we are ever so thankful it looks as though he will pull through, it looks as though he will lose at the very least the ability to use his left hand.

Anyone who has met me knows why this means a great deal to me.

All I want to ask from you, my huddle fam, is that no matter your background faith or creed, please offer up a prayer for my friend so the he may fully recover.

I hate to interrupt your day with this but it would surely mean a lot to me to know that you all are keeping him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you all so much.

***UPDATE***

My friend is out of surgery and resting. I spoke with his GF and she said he was able to squeeze her hand a bit. Now it's far from over, but what a tremendous sign. This makes the doctors much more confident that once the swelling subsides they can improve function even further.

Thanks again to all my Huddles.

 

***2nd Update***

 

This morning much to the amazement of the doctors, he was able to not only move his hand but touch each finger to his thumb.  Nothing short of miraculous considering the extent of the damage to his arm.  

 

Keep up the support it truly has made a difference!

You got it, dude.  

 

I hope that I don't sound callous by saying this, but if he does lose the use of his left hand, at some point, tell him to keep pounding with the other one.  I mean that in the most sincere and best way possible.

Will do L-Town, and I will say this guy is lucky to have you as a good friend - you are a great example of living life with a limitation and still getting out there and doing your thing.

 

Prayers sent.

    • If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times). 
    • Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1. 
    • You aren't going to ever get him out of the equation. As he has stated previously, he believes it his right to make the final call on decisions.
