So it sounds like DW re-injured himself by simply ducking his head and running into the back of his lineman. Sounds like he is done to me. I was always surprised he never go seriously hurt while at VT the way he leads with his head.

Ugh. Can we just have one Hokie RB in the NFL whose career isn't derailed by injuries in the first couple of years?

Oh no, really hope DW is alright.

But I can't see how this goes right even if this is just a minor thing. It's hard for a franchise to put any faith in an RB when he can't stay on the field. Why would you waste precious time in between weeks installing a game plan or designing set plays for a guy who might not be there? Or could go down at any moment? The Cardinals seemed to ignore RW after his second blow-out.

He's got the type of attitude and ethic where I know he'll be successful in whatever he does, but this is just so sad to see. Wish him all the luck in the world in whatever he does next.

The Steelers cut Danny Coale today after he injured his finger and may require surgery.

That might be his last shot. He has yet to make an active roster because he keeps getting injured. It's hard to find guys that make rosters a couple of years after being drafted. I really thought Pittsburgh was a good place for him because they desperately need WRs.

Tyrod Taylor Impressing In Training Camp

Head Coach John Harbaugh split up his team during Monday’s practice at M&T Bank Stadium. There was Team Tyrod and Team Flacco, with the second- and first-team offenses squaring off in an 11-on-11 scrimmage. Team Tyrod won. :clap:

I'll probably jinx it but Tyrod is looking on point in this preseason game against SF

He has always been good with quick reads or roll out option plays. The Kubiak system is amazing for his skill set. Glad to see him thrive under a new OC this quickly. Shows how much he likes the new era in Baltimore.
