GD,
I thought the same thing, the hit looked to be more of a bruise/break than a ligament. It looked to be lower than the knee.
As for JJ, I re-watched that one, and that looked like a ligament, with little contact.
I'm not a Dr. and haven't stayed at a Holiday Inn Express lately.
I think JJ bruised that big knob of bone right below the knee cap.
I'm not a doctor but I'm willing to play doctor with the right woman.
I know is old news, but when did Charles Johnson get plucked off the practice squad, what a buss kill, liked the kid.
Last week.
I think they'll send Nixon back to the PS and bring up Myles White. Next man up; the Thompson way. White had some good moments in preseason.
Nixon was brought up because some other team was going to sign him
link?
Call me racist but I didn't see anything in White in the preseason. I was hoping Johnson would develop into something but it will have to be with somebody else. I'm scorned.
I'm still waiting to see the news on Cobb, thinking it will be something like....."The injury to Cobb isn't season ending, though we did cook him a little too long in the MRI machine and had to amputate his leg. He'll go on IR soon."
Has there been any report on Perry's injury?
There was this just now

Per our Chris Havel, according to a source, LB Nick Perry has a broken foot, We will be back later this year. #Packers
at this point I just expect injuries like this every week with this team
Is that a sick joke?
I hope. That's the only thing I've seen on it, but with this team nothing surprises me
He played the 2nd half?!?!
He must be our version of Jack Youngblood if true.
Good morning to all. It feels good to wake up, knowing that we dominated out there. I can go to work in good spirits! Enjoy your day.

He seemed chipper on this twitter snippet, but we know how accurate snippets are...
legends of the fall.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tandon Doss ran through the corner of the end zone while trying to come down with a Joe Flacco pass on Sunday. His inability to stay in bounds wasn’t the only poor footwork he demonstrated on the play. Doss stumbled after hauling in the pass and ran into a photographer on the sideline, knocking the cameraman onto his back.
It turned out to be Baltimore Ravens photographer Phil Hoffman. According to the team, he tore his achilles on the collision. If Hoffman were a player Packer, he’d be out for the rest of the season. Luckily, his profession relies more on shutter speed rather than field speed, so he was able to continue working the same game.
We lose players, they lose photographers.
Nick Perry, the safety from Alabama, is out for the year and will get a medical redshirt I heard on a blurb (audio snippet) in passing.
can they speed that link up a bit more...getting dizzy
Borrow one of fedya's computers, they run at 500 Khz.

Can confirm what Chris Havel first reported. @packers Nick Perry broke his foot. Still waiting to hear how long he will be out #Packers
Out? I'm sure the funeral will be yet this week.
You need more credible snippets. Played the rest of the game on a broken foot? I don't believe it.
Played about 5 snaps after injury.
THIS JUST IN: Packers LB Nick Perry has a broken foot. Perry was starting in place of injured LB Clay Matthews. (MEDIA REPORTS)

Everything on twitter seems to be re-tweets of the same source (cited above). I'm sure ESPN wouldn't post on that practice though, and has done the legwork to make sure this snippet is correct.
Nothing on Packer News or JSO. ESPN could just be repeating Havel....
McCarthy is supposed to have a press conference at 3 today.

Lots of fringe reporters with the Perry info, but none of the core/beat guys?
Nothing on Packer News or JSO. ESPN could just be repeating drivel Havel....
FTFY
McCarthy is supposed to have a press conference at 3 today.
And got injured stepping up to the podium?
This isn't Dan Devine we are talking about.
You would think if it was broke he would have been in a boot or something after the game.. Why would they wait until getting back to WI to x-ray it?
I love how re-tweeting the same source over and over again soon becomes "multiple sources say..."
Twitter is the most awesome form of snippet.
Twippets?
Also, I really miss these.
We didn't have these injuries during the Favre/Sherman era...
Might just be a minor break. Who knows
Can't help but laugh at this teams luck with injuries. Just 1 week after they lose Clay, they have to go and lose the other OLB
I can hear the lawnmower in my brain just looking at that Shoeless.
Keep seeing all the tweets on how the Cobb & Jones injuries were not as bad as they looked. Mark my words: they will both be declared out for the year. Unbelievable how injury prone this squad is.
