Tommy Streeter not on the field...MRI

Ah, the dreaded nudge nudge wink wink injury

Strikes athletes every August

No known cure exists but there are miraculous recoveries every February. Must be the Spring air

Tommie Streeter: "Hear about me? What, you're cutting me?"

John Harbaugh: "Oh no, Tommie, we envision you with the organization for a very long time. I meant your broken foot".

Tommie Streeter: "Broken foot, who told you that coach? I didn't break my foot."

John Harbaugh: "Oh, but you did......"

(John's personal assistants abandon their posts in his office and manuever toward Tommie, grabbing him by the arms, while Harbaugh simultaneously reveals a hammer that he is holding in his hand behind his desk).

This made me Lol.

A poster on another board said that rookies now have to pass through waivers before being IR. Some new rule. Can anyone confirm this?

Confirmed

Not just rookies

Don't you remember when the Giants cut Jake Ballard to put him on IR and the Patriots claimed him and put him on their IR

edit: better explanation below

They only have to past through waivers before the first cut date.

That rule doesn't apply as of Monday at 4pm.

That changes things then.

Oh well, then Streeter to IR is back on.

Im happy to keep him anyway we can, this may be how. Like its been said any other year weve had flacco hed make the team, maybe even since the SB team. Its a numbers game and thompson has out played him, if only partially at wr, but also brings STs ability. Streeters main problem is he needs reps not to hit the weights. Hes not getting reps on IR so im a little dissapointed about that and thought maybe hed sneak on as a red zone target, which after 5 years now flacco has still never been given at WR. Well see what comes of it but it does seem likely.

Yeah that is true, we have never had a end zone threat at WR since Flacco has been here, however I think that's hwat the big 6'4/5 tight ends are for. Heap, Pitta, and Dickson have all been good in the end zone through out Flacco's career.

Id agree, pitta and dickson are pretty much our only weapons. Adding a legit wr would mean 3 guys and youd have to single somebody. I think it would be a great addition.

Allegedly.

Yeah, he stumped his big toe getting out of bed this morning. I know he's got to be in a ton of pain.

Seriously, this isn't even news as far as I am concerned. The Ravens do this every single year and so does every other team in the NFL.
