Who’s on the WFT reserve/COVID-19 list (and when)--NOT a 'covid discussion' thread!

WR is honestly least of my concerns at the moment.  If they have to line up with DBrown, Carter, Milne and Hump, at least there are 4 available guys.

 

I literally have no idea how they will fill 4 DL spots at the moment.  They might have to play a 3-4 just because they don't have 4 DL they can activate.  They DON'T have more than one DT.  So, in any event, I think it would be Payne playing next to a converted DE if they did play 4 down.

 

It is bananas.  

Orchard, Wise, Payne, Toney.

Bada is the international pathway player who is on their PS. He actually looked decent in preseason. TY McGill is a veteran DT who has had 2 stints on this team - he was most recently on the practice squad in November and is currently on Minnesota's

Yes, I was joking.  

 

I feel SO much better.

Why couldn't this have happened last week.

I think it did, we just didn’t know it yet

 

edit: on the bright side, if we do make the playoffs it’s probably better to get this over with now

At this point just list the players that aren’t on the list. It’s way shorter.

[HigSkin]

So ya gotta think Dallas has to have something going on given our Dline was blowing, spitting, yelling at last weeks game.  I'm surprised the NFL hasn't gone to enhanced (everyday) testing for all teams.

I can’t even keep up with my original post!  I think I’m missing some players.  Will have to deal with it tonight when I’m not at work.

Offensive thoughts:  The concussions to McKissic and McLaurin hurt more than the COVID stuff on offense. Though, if TH can't go, then you're in deep doo doo at QB due to Kyle Allen being on the COVID list.

 

Good chance Heinicke can't finish this game. He's gotta be banged up from last week and divisional games are rough in the NFCE.

 

Could have a practice squad QB taking snaps from a 4th string center.

 

Yikes.

At this pace, we'll have to wonder if we'll be able to suit up 46 guys on sunday.

we're going to end up forfeiting.

 

At least we're not the only team dealing with this bull****.  I heard at least seven teams are having to deal with this?

Not Troy Apke.  Anybody but our special teams ace!

[slinky]

they can go back to a 16 game schedule for this year and cancel one of the 17 games 

but they wouldnt do that and we only have NFCE left so they wont do that,

So, I'm not saying that I had covid, but I was very sick for a few days a couple of months ago. Once the initial illness subsided, I was still coughing up thick mucus, out of breath, tired, sleeping terribly and weak. I was like that for at least three weeks. Even if a third of our team were to come back after covid, are they going to be in any shape to play? I'm not saying our season is over, but I think its on life support. Not a whole lot you can do about it, no reason to get too upset. Our guys did their best.

 

P.S. Yes, I've got the shot.

It's being reported that most of the players testing positive across the league don't have symptoms. Guessing it applies here too

I can speak to one player who had flu like symptoms, kept testing negative so they practiced/played and then later tested positive. Not a Washington player.

They did test the entire team and staff.

 

They had 1 positive. Cedrick Wilson

They tested the vaccinated players Monday. Watch next Mondays test results to see if Dallas has issues.

 

To add to this....Washington is about to get royally screwed if the proposed changes happen between this weekend and next.

Bottom line, attempting to play like this with 1/3 of the team basically out on Covid, or illness, is kinda ridiculous. If they players do come back, at least som eof them, by some miracle, is it really smart to have them play....even if they do how effective will they be. WFT gave it a good shot at the end before all of the covid stuff kicked in, but you have to wonder if it's not best for them, and a handful of the other teams hit hard, to just postpone the games for a week. 

[tomwvr]

There is no reason to postpone a week when there are less then 1/5th of the teams being affected.

 

[method man]

I think it can help if they just push the game an extra day to Monday. That extra day can be crucial for getting more guys back and perhaps having a practice on Saturday

[Koolblue13]

We should just play other teams that are full of cooties too.
