    I thought players on IR didn't travel they kept Highsmith at home or maybe it's to rehab.

    Since the NFL won't dare drop even a single crumb of information regarding the suspects, I think it's fairly safe to say that English or Gaelic wasn't likely the first language of Skylar's "Dublin Welcoming Committee".

    Dublin can be an unforgiving place, if only Skylar had reached out I could have told him the areas to avoid.

    Not that players don’t get robbed in the US, but another reason these international games are just dumb.

    You'd have thought they would have robbed a higher paid player;)

    Ramsey was in and out with a hamstring injury. Apparently I posted in the wrong tab

    Tomlin's fault. He even gets out coached on the streets.
    Seriously this is a crazy story.

    I wonder if he had a 80,000 dollar necklass hanging out around his neck? Still pretty $hitty it happened to him.

    If they were to choose do you think they would go after Skylar Thompson or TJ Watt?

    I would love to know more details. First day over there and he is still running on Pittsburgh Time. He is not over there as an official player with a bed check, I bet this happened about 3AM after coming out of a Bar.

    At least Brice was close with the time part. I know it’s surprising. It was 2:30am in the bar district and he was alone. He was treated on the scene. Police were not called. His cellphone was stolen.

    Sounds like you didn't read the info they actually released. First I was thinking items stollen, or maybe a Pick-Pocket, but it sounds like he was mugged on the street.

    Sources say backup QB Skylar Thompson got jumped and robbed Friday night in Dublin. Thompson, who is on injured reserve, suffered minor injuries but is OK and with the team.

    This does not sound like he was at a team activity surrounded by his fellow players, when he was "Jumped", which I am assuming means "Attacked", and suffered minor injuries.

    My guess, says coming out of a Bar at 3 AM.
