Reporting that Garrett is playing hurt too, he's a huge part of what makes that unit go
Not surprising. most of the team is usually injured. Gotta fire the training staff or something. Once a player becomes a Brown they become very injury prone. Makes no sense

They lied.
Plain and simple.
Maybe @Bandit has the right idea? Have the fantasy draft after week 1 and start the fantasy season in week 2.
It is a sad world we live in at times. What is the benefit of them lying? Sometimes I just don't get it.

I think they didn't really know. Last thing on their mind is the impact on FF. He tried to practice Week 2 and couldn't and they put him on IR.

Thats generous to think that. But with the team of doctors, trainers and medical staff they have to protect the investment they have in these players, i have trouble believing they didnt know.

If it is indeed true they didnt know, fire the medical staff.

Medicine isn't straightforward like math. I really doin't see what they gain from deliberately lying about it.

And the warning signs were there:
Calf injury to keep McCaffrey out for preseason

And I think McCaffrey himself was overly optimistic - as elite players tend to be.

When NFL players take the field on game day, there is a comprehensive operation happening behind the scenes focused on one thing: providing those players with the best possible care. At each NFL game, there is a team of more than 30 medical professionals working to ensure the health and safety of the athletes.

It happened in week one of preseason. I do wonder why they didn't take it more serious in preseason and now it is week 4 and he saw a specialist. That is almost 2 months. Besides all that bs....he announced he will play week one and then the reports came out he will likely give it a go or GTD. Then suddenly on IR. Seems a little more than fishy.

Well considering he said he would play....either it went from good to terribly bad very quick or the medical staff is a joke.

This was the Friday night before the game.

I am certainly no doctor nor a world class athlete, but i tore my achilles and was back on the ice in 6 weeks. And i was in my early 50s at the time.

2 months... fire the med staff.
