Reed Already Has an Injury?

Just saw a report saying Reed left practice today with some sort of leg injury.
Great way to start the year, huh?

Perhaps after today the Hawks will do something more on the inside positions. The depth on the team is weak on the DLine.

Something soon?

PANIC!

Any updates on this?

It's a day off. So probably no news until tomorrow.

Pretty worrisome that we get an injury during non-contact drills. What the heck is going to happen when they begin really hitting and pushing on each other? I guess we can take some solace in that . You would think it can't be something real serious. Although any injury to our lack of defensive depth would be serious...

There's some teams that tear their ACL during practice. I think Reed's injury is a minor injury, and it all depends on your Strength coach.

But there was contact.

Honestly, I didn't think Reed was going to be sufficient pass rush for the year anyway, but this is hardly welcome news.

I find myself in agreement with Rob Staton here - the lack of explanation for having signed another DT at this point is hopefully explained by them saving up for Clowney. Now it's even more urgent if they want an interior DL made of more than camp bodies.

Word is he got tangled up in a pile and probably stepped on, they still where cleats.

Clowney, come home dammit.

Hey! Don't sweat it, we'll just plug in Jamal Adams at the d5 and were all good. :sarcasm_off:

PJ Johnson 24 yrs old 6'3 320 lbs. Played at Arizona before becoming a 7th rd pick by Detroit.
Cut/released by 3 teams in the last year?

Doesn't sound too serious if the best player they are taking a look at is PJ Johnson. Hopefully just some soreness they are being cautious with.

But I am concerned that DT is our most fragile position depth wise. I'd like one more veteran run blocker in that rotation.

Get used to it. No formal off-season, no OTAs, no rookie camp, no mini-camp, truncated training camp with limited full reps, no pre-season games...

There are going to be a lot of injuries league wide.

Apparently, Reed was on the field yesterday, though not practicing. According to the Times he was on the sidelines walking around without any braces or casts apparent. Could be a signal that it's a minor thing.
