Has anyone heard news of the players who were banged up during the game?
Hopefully none too critical!
No news yet, hopefully Milton will have something after practice. Neither one looked good to me - Vosean Joseph was a shoulder I think and Mulumba got carted off. Thought it may have been a knee.
Don’t recall anyone else being attended to.
My guess is that both Mulumba and Joseph along with Anthony Johnson will start the season on the 6 gm IL .
Coach “O,” when questioned by Steve Milton, post practice Monday, said Mulumba would be available for the second pre-season game, but they quite likely won’t play him. He added that he was in a lot of pain, when carted off the field on Saturday. So, good news, it’s not as serious as some were guessing.

So when he’s says nothing, he’s criticized….when he says something, he’s criticized….really?

It’s obviously all a ruse. The truth: Mulumba will NOT be available, but he WILL play, and he is NOT in pain.

After being none of our business for so long ts good to talk about transparency and injuries again.
In Stein we trust.

Any word on Joseph?
Haven’t seen or heard anything, at least yet. It appeared to be right shoulder or arm. I did hear Dinwiddie give a better, than perhaps expected, report on Gittens, calling his injury a bruised shoulder.

Are you telling me Dinwiddie gave an honest and informative answer to a media question? Refreshing.

A couple of days before the pre-season game receiver Anthony Johnson was injured during practice and according to training camp observers was “carted off the field” which usually means something more serious than your average bumps and bruises. During his day before the pre-season game (May 26) press conference Steve Milton asks Stein about the availability of Johnson for the game to which Stein replies “No, he won’t play tomorrow. He’ll be alright, he’ll be fine, he just won’t play tomorrow”. Fast forward to this morning’s transactions and lo and behold Anthony Johnson has been placed on the 6-game injury list. As a long-time season ticket holder and die-hard fan I would just like the head coach of my favourite football team to be honest and transparent when talking to the media. Is it too much to ask for?

This is what a great post looks like.
I don’t think there is any pro Coach that wants to talk publicly about injuries to his players,
and with good reason

Anthony Johnson can’t seem to catch a break. He had a promising debut last year until a nasty hand injury sidelined him fort he rest of the season. Now again he is on the 6-game and this time he didn’t even get out of camp. I’m thinking one more injury and the Cats will cut him loose.
