Sypniewski done for the year

[Bez513]

It was confirmed today :

Ravens backup tight end Quinn Sypniewski is out for the season with a torn knee ligament, coach John Harbaugh said after the team's first mandatory minicamp practice today.
According to Harbaugh, Sypniewski had surgery to repair the ligament, which tore off the bone. His recovery will take between six to nine months.
"It looks like now we’re not going to have him back," Harbaugh said.

Another backup tight end, Daniel Wilcox, did not practice because he is recovering from last season's injuries.


Even Lee Vickers, who was brought in last season when Heap and Wilcox went down, wasn't practicing today. That left the Ravens with a pair of free agent rookies, Joe Reitz of Western Michigan and Scott Kuhn of Louisville.

wow .... that's a blow.

Given Heap's propensity to get hurt, we may want to start thinking UDFA and see who may still be out there.
