Gerald Jones may have broken hand (confirmed)

[mtvols]

CDD says there is a good chance G Jones has a broken hand. Will know for sure tomorrow.

 

[MikeDVol]

he still completed that pass too right?

 

[PennVol]

sheez.....so typical. This always happens.

 

[PennVol]

please let the x-ray be negative. Please!!

 

[vols_fan_68]

I hope not, although we are loaded at the position

 

[CA_Vol]

That really sucks. At least we have plenty of WR's, but none as experienced as Jones.

 

[77' Vol]

Regardless, he will be back mid-season and others will step up. I do hope its not broke though.

 

[namasteVOLfans]

not to mention Jones was probably going to be Simms' fav target

 

[TennTradition]

Man, Gerald just plays hurt...that's how it is. It was obvious that he was Simms' favored target. If he is out, that spells serious trouble for our offense, IMO. It isn't based solely on ability, but they just seemed to have their timing down. If it is broken, maybe he can get back by mid-season.

 

[clevelandvolfan]

lets look at this in a slightly positive light. Now D's will have to wonder who Simms is going to throw to. He likes Jones a little too much. He will have to spread it around more.

 

[PennVol]

this would be a devastating injury. Lose a huge leader.

 

[Velo Vol]

Didn't they X-ray during the game? Can't they tell immediately if it is broken? Why do they need to wait until tomorrow?

/medical ignorance

 

[Soda]

Do all our players have brittle bones???

I hope it's not broken....WR is a deep position though

I don't think we would be waiting until tomorrow for one, and for two I think some of us would have noticed that on the slow-mo replay on a big screen

 

[RhodeIslandVol]

I was kidding about the bones thing. But I have no idea how he could've seen a broken hand. His hand look pretty gimpy when he was getting up off the ground, though.

Uggh...

No way. On the closeup camera view there was nothing to suggest that. There may be a break, but bones were not protruding...lol....

 

[the.one.the.only]

what did you see that makes you so sure?

because I've seen people break arms/wrists/hands and it looked exactly like that. when he walked off the field with his left arm just dangling there you could tell.

Poor guy just can't stay healthy to start a season. And we heard how hard he worked in the offseason with regaining speed and putting on muscle. Grrrr. I feel like G Jones has all this potential that we'll never get to see over a whole season.

Agreed.
