Austin Fort tears ACL

[Draft Crazy]

Another TE with an injury. What’s new? I hate preseason. Fort had a shot and was at worst going to the PS.

Basically, if Noah Fant can stay healthy, he'll be our best TE since Shannon Sharpe. All he's gotta do. Stay healthy.

TE might be a cursed position in Denver.

Iowa TEs don't get hurt.

Iowa RBs are another story.

Too bad for the WY kid...

Anthony Moeaki and George Kittle (see what he can do when he stays healthy) say hello.

We need 8 TE's so we can get a proper game day/53-man/PS/IR rotation.

All the TEs the Broncos sign get a free ACL during the process - its standard. I don't think Sharpe ever tore his ACL. Shannon Sharpe was not only really good, but he took care of himself and was there every game grinding away.

Too bad on Fort. I wish him a quick recovery.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Moral Stepens may feel a little motivated now as he may have a fair shot at a PS spot. Althought if we keep 4 TE’s we may not keep one on the PS.

Does Bug Howard have a chance to make the PS?

I have not heard much about him since training camp started. He was a stand out in OTAs.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Yeah. Sorta forgot about him even being on the roster. He was a former WR at UNC. Project but had some good moments at UNc. He is PS eligible.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Signed OL Adam Bisnowaty to take his spot.

Did they have major injuries? I know Tony M had an unfortunate preseason injury once, but didn't he come back to play several seasons? Has Kittle had injuries?

 

[Draft Crazy]

Moeaki had several injuries. Fractured his shoulder, dislocated his elbow, knee and back issues. Spent an entire season on IR. Most of another. Ultimately his health is what bounced him from team to team and cut his once very promising NFL career short.

Kittle had a fantastic JR season and missed much of his SR year with injuries. He was slowed his SR season with leg and back issues. Got hurt right away in PS for the Niners misses most of the PS his rookie year. But since then has been healthy and one of the best tight ends in the game.
