Alright, the Wednesday injury report just dropped, and while we finally got A.J. Brown back on the practice field, the biggest takeaway might just be how close a couple of other key players were to hitting injured reserve. Brown was a limited participant in his return, with his 21-day practice window officially open, which is huge after he’s missed the last four games with an ankle injury he picked up way back in the season opener.
Gonzalez Looks Good, But Will Campbell and Tre’Veyon Henderson Are Still a Major Question Mark
Even with Brown back, the news on some other guys is a bit more concerning. Cornerback Christian Gonzalez, who’s been dealing with a shoulder issue, told reporters he expects to play on Sunday. That’s a good sign, but he was still limited in practice today, so we’ll be watching that closely. But listen to this: there was actual discussion about whether offensive tackle Will Campbell (knee) and running back Tre’Veyon Henderson (ankle) would be placed on injured reserve. Talk about a gut punch! They both ended up limited in practice, which is better than IR, but knowing it was even a conversation? That tells you how serious those injuries are. We need those guys healthy, full stop.
A Laundry List of Limited Guys & A Few Missing Completely
Beyond the big names, Wednesday’s report was packed with other limited participants. Offensive tackle Marcus Bryant is battling an ankle issue, safety Kevin Byard has a chest injury, cornerback Channing Canada is dealing with a hamstring, and linebacker Dre’Mont Jones is nursing a shoulder. Also limited were cornerback Marcus Jones (ankle), offensive tackle Morgan Moses (foot), cornerback Charles Woods (shoulder), and safety Craig Woodson (shoulder). That’s a lot of guys not at 100 percent, which always makes you nervous heading into the weekend. Even worse, we had two players who didn’t even participate: cornerback Carlton Davis with a neck injury and cornerback Karon Prunty with a hamstring. On the bright side, at least quarterback Drake Maye was again listed as a full participant for his right shoulder, a consistent bit of good news over the last few weeks. This team needs everyone they can get out there on Sunday.
