I hope so. Neck and spinal injuries can be career killers.

Please don't be Jordan, Jeff, another DL, or an LB (so thin there). Don't want it to be anyone, but these are the areas of most concern.

Please... let us be ok. This team has talent but needs to build depth.

Yeah Gibbs and Riq have both said they are fine. Tre is the only player we’ve heard absolutely nothing about, so I would assume it’s him.

It's not Tre.

Hearing the same news. Don’t feel comfortable sharing either but with time to process it I think everyone will be excited about the next men up.

Let's assume it's Gibbs. Then we'll all feel better if/when it doesn't turn out to be him.

Hate to say it, but that sounds like Mason may be out. He is a very good, experienced back, but I would not call that a 5, probably a 4. I just don't want it to be a DL, LB, or OL. Not this early in the season, please. No one has mentioned a WR or TE, but I think we would be ok with losing one of those (compared to the other positions), although I sure wouldn't want it to be Camp.
PS Make sure I am clear - I don't want it to be anyone.

Did Mason leave the game early? If he did, how did I miss that? Or did he play through it and finish the game?

Remember seeing Smith for almost a full drive? I couldn't figure out why he played so much as the announcers didn't focus on us at all.

He did leave for a bit but retuned for a few more plays. No mention of it on the broadcast, but I wouldn’t expect them to because we rotated backs a good bit and it seemed like Griffin was in mostly on pass situations. Nothing alerted to a Mason injury.

If true, I hate that for him. But RB is our deepest group on offense. Injuries happen to every team every year. Hopefully the rumors are not as dire as they sound.

I remember that but I figured Smith had just earned the playing time as was listed as ATL. Even if Mason went out, we still had Griffin for the game. Speaking of Smith, I did think he played well, especially catching out of the backfield.

Football is a violent game. We lose at least a full handful of players every year. I don’t want to lose anybody, but honestly from QB to RB to DB to the lines, we have players. It won’t be the end of the world. But we can’t have that happen too many times at the same position.
At RB, we’re super deep. Bruce Swilling was a 4-star and hasn’t cracked the 4-deep. At QB we have 4 we could play. At DB we’re so deep Brooks as a top 75 guy nationally hasn’t cracked the ATL.
These are the things I tell myself so I don’t punch a hole in the wall. I suck at dry wall.
