D-Will's season is over

[top dawg]

Per NBC Sports. Deangelo Williams has been placed on IR. LINK

Chance for some unproven guys to step it up and earn a roster spot for next year.

And silver lining is, Deangelo won't have a ridiculous asking price when it comes time to resign him.

Its official. D Will is on IR. This sucks so bad.

Oh noes, there goes the season...

I'm ok with this decision, let the man heal up, give some of the Yunguns a shot and make another run at it next season...

Maybe we can give Eric Shelton a chance now. Oh wait, what?

...Deangelo won't have a ridiculous asking price when it comes time to resign him.

Not so sure about that. Even with his durability issues, there are probably plenty of teams that may offer a big payday. Not to mention that he has to contend with Stew (and probably Goodie) for carries. I guess that it will all depend upon his perspective.

I am now wondering if RB Deangelo Williams, who will be a free agent after the season, could have played his last game here barring a contract extension?

Stupid move not trading him before the deadline. (don't flame...but we've got a ton of issues that draft picks could've help remedy this next year)

[CatfanMO]

I wonder how many people are waiting in line for IR. I wonder if they do paper-rock-scissors every day? Everyone wants an early vacation.

[g5jamz]

When teams are losing...people find reasons not to show up to work.

[JungleCat]

At least there are other options at running back.

Not so, if they were (are) hell-bent on signing him regardless. Does make you scratch your head though. Just another bewildering move in the same vein of extending Jake's contract and letting Pep walk without any compensation whatsoever.

OMG.......the poor get poorer
