*******COMMENTARIES TO BE POSTED AS TIME PERMITS
TEXANS
Three shoulders........Fulton (new), Lamm and Shareece
Jackson has joined the thumb club with Hopkins.......both with an ulnar collateral ligament tear
Clowney is back on the Injury Report with a foot
And as I predicted after 2 high ankle fracture surgeries, he's re-injured the ankle
JJo has shown up with a groin injury..........he has already had bilateral sports hernias.............played with his hernias for one full season and part of another, thinking it was just discomfort that'd resolve with rest
Miller will be playing with happy juice injections to his chest and Toradol..........it will be harder for him to try to go through the middle
Webster appears to be set to go Sunday, but if he makes it through the practices I'm still not sure we will see anything we would like to see.
Kelemete although his knee injury is not characterized, since he was on a bicycle when he left the game last week, could be dealing with a patellar or quad tendonitis..........although with neither would I have had him on a bicycle that soon........rather ice and rest
COWBOYS
RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee)........last week had an excellent game, but was seen limping on the sideline off and on during a good part of the game. He was reported to have a knee and ankle issue. In fact what he has is an ankle sprain and a knee bursitis. Although he is expected to play Sunday,he is likely to be affected, especially by the bursitis. Every time his knee hits the ground, you can expect the knee to swell and affect his production.
WR Cole Beasley (ankle).........sustained an ankle injury Sept 20 in a practice.........he has played with the injury......he was clearly affected last game to the point that he was checked out on the sideline, but remained in the game...........suspect that this injury was compensatory to a groin tear that he sustained the beginning of TC, missing the first 2 preseason games.......he has dealt with soft tissue injuries for extended periods, also dealing with hamstring problems since Nov 201.
WR Tavon Austin (shoulder)........... injured trying to make a deep touchdown catch in the first half last game............he was in and out of the rest of the game, playing through his injury
C Travis Frederick's (Iillness)..........diagnosed mid Aug with Guillain-Barre syndrome, a disorder in which the immune system attacks the body's nervous system in response to illness (autoimmune)......no significant resolution has been reported to date
DE DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder).......sustained last game.........mid Sept suffered a groin pull but missed no games
CB Chidobe Awuzie (ankle)........sustained last game...........has been continually been dealing with hamstring and ankle injuries for the last 2 years........... initially injured his hamstring last year just before TC and ended up missing 8 games for 3 separate hamstring injuries/re-injuries that season........sprinkled in there were also injuries to his ankle...........I'd watch him for another hamstring if his ankle is unstable
S Jeff Heath (neck)....dealing with a new neck injury........he.suffered a left ankle sprain when his foot was stepped on in Week 3 and temporarily left the game, returning after negative x-rays and admittedly being shot up with pain meds
DL Maliek Collins (knee).....suffered Week 2........ missed the first game of his three-year career Sunday at Seattle because of a sprained MCL.............he knee injury came after he fought through foot injuries in his first two seasons, but he had always been able to play despite missing practices..............he recovered from foot surgery in time for the 2018 season opener
NT Antwaun Wood (groin)...... entered the last game with a groin injury, but was available nonetheless.........he then was ruled out of the game with a calf injury suffered in the first half
LB Sean Lee (hamstring).........suffered a hamstring tweak in Week 2 that was labeled by the team as "tightness", with Lee instead downplaying it and said it was nothing more than a "cramp". He'd go on to miss one practice and be limited in others before going on toplay against the Seahawks.......he looked great at first, but had to leave in the 3rd quarter with a..................hamstring injury........can't see him playing Sunday
Lee is no stranger to injuries......especially hamstrings:
Nov 12, 2017 hamstring tear............Sep 25, 2017 hamstring tear.........Dec 27, 2015 hamstring tear...........Nov 8, 2015 concussion.........Oct 4, 2015 concussion............May 27, 2014 left knee ACL rupture in OTAs and missed the entire 2014 season.............Dec 9, 2013 severe cervical neck strain...........Nov 10, 2013 hamstring tear.........Oct 21, 2012 turf toe of his right big toe with season-ending surgery.........Oct 30, 2011 wrist dislocation............Dec 19, 2010 concussion...........Sep 19, 2009 left knee PCL tear grade 2, missing 3 games during his final season at Penn St...........Apr 15, 2008 right knee ACL rupture in spring practice at Penn State, missing the entire season
