Injury Updates

Looks as though Gentry will be out long term however Macdonald has been cleared to return and should be good for Thursday from Covid.

JuJu and Haden don’t seem to be injured too bad but with a short week the participation could be limited and jeopardize Thursday.

No updates on Samuels Trey Elliot or Dotson.

 

I would think Kevin Rader would be activated as a TE from the PS.

 

juju is the only one worrying me...…….. he's had quite a few grown man runs after the catch, and i'd hate to lose that this week after watching AJ brown running through the ravens secondary

 

Did anyone catch the full press conference today? I watched the Ben interview on Youtube but it cut in toward the end of a question about his arm. It sounded like he said it hurts when it hits the ground once in a while but it's fine from the injury standpoint. I didn't hear what the question was but I assume they were asking if his change in throwing motion or shaking out his hand has something to do with his surgery.

 

Joe Haden is my concern

 

Haden looking very iffy right now. JuJu probably needs to go full tomorrow.

Tough to get a read on this injury report with the short week.

Macdonald should be in and Elliot is back from illness.

Still no word on Dotson.

Samuels and Trey will both be out.

 

If Steelers can't beat the crap out of the Ravens with what they're going through now, I mean this is it , Finish them!


Because they will be back next year.

 

And we may not.

 

JuJU was full yesterday so he’s in line to play. Haden Limited looking like he will be a game time decision. Edmunds and Samuels are out. No word on Dotson.

 

Appears as if the game is actually played Sunday which I highly doubt the only guy of consequence who would be questionable or possibly out is Haden.

Samuels will be out. Trey was put on IR

 

Only guy I see as questionable is Haden. Not sure if anyone else Canadian Steel? has seen anything different. All my sources are completely off the normal schedule because of all this nonsense.

JuJu appears to be fine and a go.

Samuels is out injured.

Tuitt Hawkins and Connor are still on the Covid list. Not sure if Tuitt or Hawkins could potentially come off as a contact only tomorrow before the game.

 

The team hadn't been together since Wednesday last week when they were both put on the list Friday. Unless they tested positive, they should be able to play tomorrow.

 

I’ve been dealing with my own injury, ironically enough, so when I’ve had the time, I’ve been glued to the Rats poop storm and not our injury report. Pretty sure I read that Tuitt tested positive, so he’s definitely out.

 

I don't think that has ever been reported, and I spend way too much time looking for that stuff. I did see one Ravens blog list Tuitt, Hawkins, and Buggs as all testing positive. The blogger was confusing players being put on the COVID list with players testing positive.

 

I don’t understand why these teams are not more clear on wether a player tested positive or was a contact? Maybe it has to do with health privacy laws but even that doesn’t make sense because why would guys like Connor or Macdonald be deemed positive right off the rip? Yet a guy like Dotson was never confirmed but out about 15 days so obviously he wasn’t just a contact? Very confusing.

 

This article says he tested positive, but it’s obviously not an official site.

That is all speculation. It does seem likely that Tuitt tested positive or he would be playing tonight. The report that Tuitt was going on the list came out Friday. If he had close contact with the team, it would have had to be Wednesday, so he should have been able to play today.

 

Pouncy now added to the Covid list so 4 guys

Tuitt
Pouncy
Connor
Hawkins

Haden Questionable

 

Haden will play, according to Dulac.

 

Yes, I realize it’s speculation, but Tomlin’s quotes are about replacing Tuitt and he’s not playing today, so pretty safe to assume he tested positive. If it looks, walks and talks like a duck... You probably don’t need official confirmation that it’s a duck.

 

Isn't it pretty much all speculation and assumptions at this point, outside of the league's and the team's front offices...
