TSO Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 That's really unfortunate for Trent. I always feel bad when a guy goes down in general, but when it happens during a preseason game? Devastating. :/ 7 minutes ago, SkinssRvA said: Damn. Thought he would escape this. So he said out the year and suspended next year first four games? ****ty situation. Galette better play well.... I don't think that's how it works, right? Galette had a two-game suspension the year we signed him, but when he went out for the year that still counted as him technically serving his suspension. He hasn't played in two years and it hasn't meant that he still owes those two games. Unless I'm missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healthy, injured or a Free Agent. No matter what, he is suspended on September 2nd until the Monday after game 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Sucks for Trent Murphy. I think the prospect of him ever becoming a "stud" is gone, but he definitely seemed to develop into a valuable situational player. As far as Cravens....*phew* dodged a bullet there. Rest up and be ready to go against Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The suspension will be over next year and he won't have to miss any games because of that. 6 minutes ago, NoCalMike said: Sucks for Trent Murphy.

Rest up and be ready to go against Philly. I agree I'd rather lose Trent over Cravens. Now of course I don't want to lose either, but I believe this is a big year to figure out what we have with Cravens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksun247 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hate to see guys get injured, especially the ones that cost a guy the entire season. Hoping for a speedy recovery with no issues so he can pick up where he left off last year. HTTR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTskin Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Well, it'll make the cut down a bit easier. If Anderson can teach Trail how to set the edge on a run play, I want that guy on the 53. It's only 2-3 weeks for Su'a, but those would have been 2-3 weeks of vital experience. I don't expect to see him starting for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kleese Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I always think it is realistic/reasonable to expect at least one contributing player per team to go down for an extended period in camp/pre-season. At this juncture, I think we seem to be a relatively "healthy" team. Through one pre-season game, Murphy is the only guy that we would count on to do anything that projects to not be there week 1. And in his case the blow is slightly lessened by the fact that he wasn't going to be there weeks 1-4 anyway. To me, now we've had our "big" pre-season injury and fingers crossed that we don't see any additional the next 3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakofthesouth Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Did anyone see the play where Trent was hurt? This is what happened: Zach Brown blows up Taliafero (FB) and he FLIES backwards... right into Trent Murphy's knees. True story. Sad news for him for sure. All we can say is 'next man up,' and that's pretty much Ryan Anderson, who had a stellar debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if he doesn't get paid for the first 4 weeks of the season, that will count as his suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
