This is insane. I’ve never seen an injury situation like this before 

[kungfoodude]

But we couldn't draft a center.....

Raise your hand if you aren't surprised. As good as Corbett has been, banking on him with his injury history was dumb.

I suspect we will see our solid OL play immediately get nuked after this. We have no valid replacement for Corbett. It's the one OL weakness we knew we had but we didn't address it. 

Whelp, can't say a lot of us didn't warn them. Pages and pages of people bitching in here about this scenario.

I heard Jelly Roll is a fan and was planning to tryout for the open spot.

The UDFA Rookie Back-Up center is in concussion protocol, I believe.

Would mean Christensen takes the snaps, but he may have to fill in for Moton who is also injured. Possibly put Nijman at RT and continue with Christensen at C.

I'd be calling the MMA and the WWE to see if anyone wants to give it a go. Hell hit any dive bar on the weekend and you are sure to find at least 1 guy who could do just as good as some of these guys.

Straight up snake bit…

Oof

Brutal... Feel bad for him and all the other walking wounded players.

[Manna]

damn, NFL script writers have gone to crap since 2018.

Passing on Zach Frazier is still a head scratcher for me. But this is what separates winning franchises from ones like ours. We had the opportunity to take Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith, two stalwart OL for Kansas City, in the 2020 draft but we passed up on them for guys that aren’t even on the team now. 

I hope the new regime of Morgan and Tilis will make better personnel decisions going forward.
