First the Tackles, Now the Wide Receivers
It seems the wide receivers are joining the tackles in not working out during training camp.
Terry Glenn suffered a knee injury when he heard a loud pop. An MRI did not reveal a major injury, but he will have the knee scoped to clear out any cartlidge causing problems. He’s expected to miss at least two weeks.
Terrell Owens was held out of practice on Tuesday and missed the morning practice today to rest a sore hamstring. The decision was made by the coaching staff who are being extra-cautious with the wide receiver.
At this point, it is nothing serious, and the extra snaps will be a bonus for the young receivers on the team. T.O. was ready to practice on Tuesday, but the coaches told him to rest. Owens is known for keeping in shape, and the time-off from practice will not hurt him.
The Terry Glenn injury is a little more worrisome. His speed and soft hands make for a huge problem for opposing defenses who know that taking T.O. out of the game will leave oppurtunies for Glenn. The knee scope itself isn’t too much to worry about, but once a receiver gets in his thirties any surgery to his legs comes with a caution flag. We can only hope this doesn’t signal a persistent issue with his knee.
I’m pretty high on Crayton, Hurd, and the other receivers. But Glenn is outright dangerous.
