Injury updates on Kalil, Bell, Davis, and Beason

Because the OP was too lazy:

DAVIS, BEASON MAKING PROGRESS: Linebacker Thomas Davisicon-article-link.gif, who is working an injured calf back to full strength, practiced extensively Sunday afternoon.

“Thomas practiced an awful lot today, the most he’s practiced (in a while),” Rivera said. “I was pretty excited to see him on the football field. Probably the biggest thing we got out of today was watching Thomas run around.”

Jon Beasonicon-article-link.gif, who is dealing with a hamstring injury, did not participate Sunday, but Rivera said he hopes to have the middle linebacker back on the practice field Wednesday. There is a chance Beason will make his preseason debut Sunday against the Jets.

“If he has a good couple of days, hopefully, we’ll see him on Sunday,” Rivera said.

OTHER INJURY NOTES: Rivera said center Ryan Kalilicon-article-link.gif and tackle Byron Bellicon-article-link.gif, who were checked out after getting stepped on in Friday’s game against the Dolphins, suffered no injuries. Both practiced Sunday.

Rivera also confirmed that the calf injury running back Jonathan Stewarticon-article-link.gif suffered is not serious.

Wide receiver Steve Smithicon-article-link.gif was given the day off due to a sore foot.

Additionally, linebackers Kenny Onatoluicon-article-link.gif and Jason Williamsicon-article-link.gif did not practice Sunday. Onatolu, who suffered a hamstring injury against the Dolphins, is a long shot to play against the Jets, according to Rivera.

Williams hyperextended his elbow in the game but Rivera is hopeful he’ll be back later in the week.

great news to hear across the board.

if our 1's do to the jets what they did to the dolphins we should sit them early, maybe even before the second quarter hits. give the backups reps and prevent any further minor first stringer injuries. if the guys seem to have the rust shaken off no point in keeping them out there.

So - do you guys want to see Beason on Sunday against the Jets? For selfish reasons, I want to see him out there, even for limited snaps, just to see him at game speed, then pull him out and don't play him against the Steelers in the meaningless fourth preseason game.

I know many will say sit him until week one, but I would like him to get some game action before then.

Yea I'd like to see him in there for a bit but pull him early. Get him cutting and hitting some just to get a feel for the game but don't risk anything with him. Might be a good idea to slide Kuechly inside after pulling him just to acclimate him to both positions.

Hell to the naw. I selfishly wanted him to play the first regular season game last season and looked where that ended up.

Even if he is a little rusty in Tampa Bay, it'll be better than risking a prolonged hammy injury in the preseason.

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
