Injury Thread

I am huge Bouye fan, please keep updated on this player Doc. This is his contract year and he should have good season. Joseph seems to play injured every year and confidence in his back up could allow Romeo Crennel to go to Bouye more often; keeping Joseph healthier.

Unofficial, but seems to be a "minor" groin strain........which we all know even so can be an injury that can easily become recurrent and chronic. Hopefully, this does not end up being a typical Texans sized "minor.":)

Aaron Wilson reports:

Texans cornerback A.J. Bouye suffered relatively minor damage to his groin during a joint practice last week against the San Francisco 49ers, a magnetic resonance imaging exam determined Monday, according to a source not authorized to speak publicly.


It's unclear how long Bouye will be sidelined with the injury, which prevented him from playing in the Texans' preseason opener Sunday night against the 49ers at Levi's Stadium.

Even if it ("relatively minor") is a grade I, return to play can be anywhere from 1-4 weeks. With a grade II, anywhere from 3-8 weeks. At this time, with the secrecy surrounding most of the Texans injuries, we have no real idea what the truth might be, so we will have to follow along to see. And as I've said before, aggravation and extension of these injuries are common.

I've posted on this subject in the Injury thread. but to comment again specifically to his return. His return will depend on how extensive the disk affected his nerve(s) and which and how much atrophy of the muscles being fed by these nerves (buttocks, hamstrings, quads, calves?????) has occurred since he played with it for so long. Besides this, everyone tend to minimize spinal surgeries performed through "minimally invasive incisions." It's not so much how long the surgical scar is, it's more what structures are you having to cut through..........and the most important structures are the back muscles. In you or me, or even Arian Foster, these may be 1/2 to 1 inch thickness. In someone built like JJ, this could be 2 1/2 inches or more. As these back muscles (an important part of the core, which JJ has already been dealing with having undergone bilateral sports hernias) are stressed to the max when exercising, especially when twisting bending and turning which is a constant with a DE, pain and reflex spasm is easily triggered and will lead to trying to compensate for movements that cannot comfortably be performed................leading to those dreaded compensatory injuries to the lower limbs. All of these bad things are much more likely if a player pushes himself or is pushed back onto the field before he is ready. JJ may try to play early, but because of the aforementioned his is not likely to look like JJ until well into the second half of the season.......if he doesn't injure himself. As I've posted in the past, with his recent cumulative core injuries, there is a possibility that we never see the same JJ we have come to always heavily depend on to carry the D.

Thanks as always for the info Doc! I'm really hoping they don't try to play him too early. That would be a tragedy if he came back too soon and messed himself up permanently.

Oh, and thanks TK for the link!

What concerns me about Watt is he can't stay off the field. Some injuries should not be played-through. I hope he doesn't end his career earlier because he shreds his body on the field.
 
Blue did not suit up today.........a "minor" shoulder injury is supposedly the explanation. He didn't suit up on Sunday either, as he could be seen on the sideline dressed in street clothes. So I suspect the injury occurred before then, or is he in someone's dog house??
 
He needs to have super preseason in games. I do not have him on final roster. Shoulder injury is one thing..dog house --better not be. His dead $ is peanuts if cut or traded.

Blue needs to get better quick because Hilliard has the look of a capable #2 RB.

Ouch... a little pancake sauce there.

I know today is supposed to be an off day, but it's a short week. Couldn't have been much of a "practice" eh?

After practice tomorrow I'm going 2 apologize to Jadeveon Clowney 4 cheap shot I tweeted when he didn't do interview with media.

As my wife reminded me 2night I haven't covered NFL for 38 years by taking cheap shots, especially when a player is injured like Clowney.

Probably On trading block and don't want to risk injury.

agree but a 7th could get us another right tackle starter like Newton.. who says I am not an optimist...:shades:

We got Newtone's heir apparent as an UDFA.

We've got Soma Vainuku back! After being waived-injured, he went unclaimed off of waiver, and has been placed on IR by the Texans.

The Texans have to be smart with Mercilus and Clowney and others with Watt’s status up in the air. They have to get to week one healthy.

If you want a sneak peek at what the Texans defense will look like with one of the three on the field. Go flip on the KC wild card game late

#69 Andrew Mc Donald? Nah.. I got it. Kendall Lamm got poor review from me but listening to radio 610 (don't know whom) today, he was given almost above average eval. He just looked overwhelmed as I saw him & much smaller than 6'5 300. TK you have a hunch or can you give me some hope? I hope we can replace Newton soon and no later than going into 2018 but we better have someone solid to slide in. I was hoping Bergstrom would be moved over versus SF.

Actually no... that was my way of saying the bar is much lower than you think.

I was really disappointed in our RTs versus SF. Lamm like you said was just overwhelmed. I had hope Jeff Adams would have the same type of performance he had in last years preseason, but he struggled as well. Newton was a swinging gate in pass protection the first half of last season. It doesn't matter who our QB and skill players are if the defense gets a free pass from our right side.
