Steve Smith, Mike Tolbert, Jordan Gross, Jon Beason among those who did not practice today. They won't play vs. Steelers.

I'm becoming worried.

Rivera says Steve Smith is feeling great and is expected to be fine for Week 1 against Tampa.

Nice news about SS... what's up with Beason, his hammy? Maybe they're gonna hold him out until the first practice in direct prep for the Tampa Bay game... maybe... I hope... please...

It's been a long road towards his recovery. No need to fug it up now by making him practice. Not worried.

Also, Keek.

[jtnc]

He hasn't practiced in over a month.

He will be ready to go...no need to rush. Also, Keuchly

Glad to hear that about 89 though.

it's his hammy from what i've heard and it's got more to do with tenderness as a result of him healing from his achilles. he had to compensate (well, i don't know if he had to) and that stressed it. best thing for hammys is rest. no need to push it right now. it won't take him long to get back into the swing of things.

Don't worry. He's not going to forget how to play.

not completely necessary.

Like most, I agree there is no point in pushing it.

But like some, yes, I am worried.

[jtnc]

I'm just hoping it doesn't turn into every week he's "supposed"to practice or "just a matter of time" and he ends up missing more weeks like Gettis. Gettis has been sidelined for nearly three months already and had to be put on PUP. For his hamstring.

Did we not learn our lesson from this last year? You guys would be utterly dangerous as coaches.

[Rubi]

Maybe both Beason and TD should both be used sparingly this year and for certain situations. Leave the every down play for Anderson , Phillips, and Kuechly
