Charles Rogers Still Injured - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

**Vinny** · 06-07-2004

As we all know, shoulder injuries can really put the skids on a career of a football player. Rogers has sure been in rehab a long, long time. He is still wearing protective gear and is still in "no-touch" status up in Lionville.

Quote:

While both Rogers and the Lions insist that the receiver has recovered from his broken collarbone in week six of the season last fall, Rogers continues to wear a red jersey and small rubber shoulder pads during practice. None of the other players is in pads and Rogers is not permitted to take part in "contact" drills, when defensive backs are allowed to jam receivers.

You got that one right Vinny. Something doesn't pass the smell test. Could be they are being just over cautious, but it just seems more than a bit wonky.

I thought the guy just busted his collar bone and pulled some muscles? He is STILL not 100%?

I agree that something might not be right in Detroit...could Mooch be pulling a page from Shannahan's play book?

Now all of a sudden the Roy Williams pick makes even more sense. Not saying that it never did considering the receiving duo Williams and Rogers will/would be, but now if Rogers never turns out as expected at least they have Roy.

I am so glad that the Lions picked Rogers instead of AJ. Another example of why I would not want Matt Millen running my team, although he did have pressure to picked Rogers because he was a hometown guy.

In my discussion at lunch with John McClain and the Texans, I was told the Texans had Rogers way down on thier list due to potential injury. If AJ was gone we would have picked someone besides the gimp lion.
