    TE Eric Waters just got hurt during practice. The injury is initially being described as a left shoulder injury. He's being taken to the locker room. Spaeth, Palmer, and Blanchflower were already sidelined today.

    What looked like a surplus of TE's has now become a liability. Glad and worried that we still have a few weeks to go. :worried:

    Amen.

    After all the jokes about carrying 28 TEs last season, now I'm beginning to see perhaps why they did it...

    Is Adams going to get some reps at TE, does this mean?

    Tomlin said it was a "lower back of some description". Apparently not his left arm/shoulder like reporters were saying...

    Hmm, tough call. Lower back pain can be troublesome and lingering. Hopefully for him it was very minor.

    All of those guys are out??? At least 3 of them can't afford to miss practice time short of an ACL tear.

    Yeah, no real reason given on Palmer and Spaeth, though it probably wouldn't be a stretch to assume Spaeth was given a maintenance day. Blanchflower will be out a while with his high ankle sprain.

    Are our LBs being too rough on our TEs? Could actually be a positive thing.
