Anyone else get the feeling Kugzilla will go to IR

[Ace_Aladdin]

nope. i think he plays this year.

 

maybe on the pup list, but not IR.

 

only thing that might push him there is who we pick up in FA.

 

this guy isn't otah.

 

I think Stewart and Kugbila will return together, to see how they can improve the run game!

[stirs]

I was actually wondering if having him around gave the other guys reason to hustle harder and Free Agents reason to not ask too much.

Once the first round of cuts are made, we will know.

I'm trying not to be too negative, considering at this point last year we hadn't signed Dwan yet. But with the o-line we currently have I can't see anything but disaster for this season.

[countryboi]

even if he does get back he is a rookie with almost zero practice time....i wouldnt expect much of an impact

[BigBoss]

I've seen a lot of Dwan Edwards thrown out when talking about the OG pick up possibility later after cuts and what not. Those are overly high expectations that we'll actually pull that kind of quality. He happened to have his Career year and frankly we got lucky it worked out as well as it did. It's not likely that we'll get a player who can perform that well for us again in the same manner.

I didn't use his name with the expectation that we'll find someone as good as him, just to illustrate that we continued signing players into September last year.

Rivera is counting on him for depth and to give him some reps this year and has said as much.  He won't be put on IR at this point unless it was a serious injury. There are rules about when you can use IR although teams routinely abuse them.  If they were going to IR him it is usually when they are making final cuts not before the first preseason game unless they tear up a knee or have a chronic/serious injury.

 

Otherwise we are a year behind since players on IR can't practice during the season.  We need to know if he is good for the future or not.

[KillerKat]

I said he was going to IR the day he tore his hamstring.

[L-TownCat]

Nopey-Nope nuh-uh, not in the slightest, didn't even consider it as a possibility.

[CatMan72]

He hasn't been able to participate in TC, so if that keeps up I could see him going to IR so we can bring someone else in here for depth while he continues to develop. 

[pantherclaw]

I doubt he'll be IR'd.

A lot of negative bs in this thread over nothing.

[The Golden Child]

IR if he's not ready by the 3rd preseason game

[O-Ther]

no IR for a hamstring that's not torn. At worst, starts season on PUP and starts practicing after the 6th game.

 

More likely is making the 53 roster, but being inactive on gameday until he's in shape. Kug needs some conditioning work after his knee problem in OTA's and hamstring in training camp.

[SauceBoss]

The fact that anyone is hoping this guy is our starter this year officially has me worried. Hope to god we sign someone in the next 3 weeks.
