falconidae Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Not particurally worried because they gave him a physical before they signed him, but find it strange that no one mentioned this.Wonder if that's why he signed such a reasonable contract?

raysnill1 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Posted about 1 year agoVikings DE Edwards should play vs. Saints despite sprained kneeNFL.com Wire Reports Minnesota Vikings defensive end Ray Edwards has a mildly sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee, a source with knowledge of the diagnosis told NFL.com's Steve Wyche, but he should be OK to start in Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the New Orleans Saints.Edwards had three of the Vikings' six sacks during Sunday’s 34-3 divisional-playoff blowout of the Dallas Cowboys. He was injured during the third quarter, returned for a few plays, then was done for the day with his team in command of the game.Vikings coach Brad Childress declined to elaborate on Edwards' injury Monday. Childress only said that Edwards is "a tough guy," and if he's able, he'll play against the Saints.Edwards was receiving treatment Monday. He said after the game that he should be fine.Edwards also had six quarterback hurries against the Cowboys.The Associated Press.Ray is fine. after the Cowboys game that he suffered the sprain in he played the next week and was the ONLY Viking to get a sack. honestly I think it's taking him a while to get all the info in the scheme because the Vikings play a very vanilla scheme Edited August 10, 2011 by raysnill1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbowl Champs Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 So your biggest FA acquisition has a bad knee. No big deal, it's all right. Surely the front office knew about this, and took a calculated risk. They probably factored it in and got a bargain contract.This had to be a minor clean up procedure. This was kept from the media by accident, no hiding it. This is a chance to develop depth that will be needed down the playoff stretch.

Old fan Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 That stinks. Even if it never causes him any problems, he is missing valuable practice and preseason snaps toward learning a new system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
