from what I've read he's had x-rays and been scanned too...they said that they'll know more in the next 24 hours which sounds like they're waiting to get more feedback from doctors reading the results...they're going to be cautious with Herbert so I think they are doing their due diligence before they come to any conclusions...based on how he was acting on the presser, either his pain tolerance is off the charts and he has some hard core acting skills OR maybe it's not as bad as it looked when it happened on the field?"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

Yeah he seemed OK and finished the game but anything high-ankle gets worse over the following days and it all comes down to severity. Hoping it's low grade enough he can just tough it out without risking further injury.Comment

Usually, I wouldn't be in favor of a early season bye, but it may work out for the best this season if that ankle needs some time.Originally posted by el_jefe999 View PostComment

I’m no doctor - so I’ll guess. Sounds more like they’re waiting to see how much it swells or becomes inflamed - doctors can read images instantly, they don’t need to wait 24 hrs and I’m pretty sure Chargers can get a doc to read them right away.Originally posted by Fouts2herbert View Post“Less is more?

Well he didn't miss a play and had a barely noticable limp after the game.Comment

TE Peyton Hendershot was released last night or is being released this morning by the Chiefs...supposedly the reason for his release was that he was in street clothes in week one against the Ravens and he pushed Roquan Smith in the back when Smith hit Mahommes late out of bounds during that game...Hendershot was hit with a $5,500 fine by the NFL and the Chiefs, the team, were also hit with a 100k fine by the NFL...apparently they were not happy about getting the fine and Mr. Hendershot is out the door...
He's 26 years old 6'4" 254 pounds, can scoot, block, and catch, was the Cowboy's 4rth or 5th string TE in TC after Dallas drafted a couple of TEs and KC traded for him in August on a conditional 7th rounder in 2026 based on him staying on the roster for 3 weeks, had he made it to this coming Sunday on the roster, the Cowboys would've received the 2026 7th rounder...
The fact that he looks good on film and the fact that he made the Cowboys 53 man as an UDRFA back in 2022 and stuck on the roster for more than 2 seasons until they drafted more people, plus the fact that he's good on STs and the fact that he's known for his blocking, plus the fact that he played at Indiana and had one of his best career college games against Jim Harbaugh's Wolverines while at Indiana when he went over a 100 yards and had two TDs to help Indiana upset Michigan...when I think about all that stuff and how Jim might know who he is from college, given his age and still untapped potential...I'm inclined to believe that the Hortiz might put a claim in for this guy today...that and Tomlinson hasn't exactly been lighting it up, our entire TE room needs more juice and here is a young guy that plays STs, still has upside, is probably known to Harbaugh, is known for blocking, has two plus years of NFL experience, AND can be had for nothing more than a roster claim...
I wonder if Hortiz puts in a claim today to pick up Peyton Hendershot..."The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

Could be a good pick up but who do you cut? Benson, or that new LB they signed? Personally, there are better TEs on our practice squad than Tomlinson like Tucker Fisk, especially as a blocker. I'm surprised Tomlinson has been getting snaps over Smart too, but I guess they don't feel confident in Smart's blocking abilities.Originally posted by Fouts2herbert View PostLast edited by jaguarmanftype; 09-17-2024, 05:19 AM.Comment

Former Chargers LB Kenneth Murray is up to his old schtick on the Titans
By Jason Reed
Several prominent names departed the LA Chargers over the offseason, some of which fans did not want to see go. Kenneth Murray was not one of those exceptions, as Chargers fans could not wait to see the team bring in new linebackers to replace him.
Murray never quite worked out in Los Angeles after the team traded up in the 2020 NFL Draft to take him in the first round. Whether it was at inside linebacker or on the edge, Murray struggled immensely with the Bolts and was one of the worst starting linebackers in the league during his time.
Despite this poor play, Murray inked a hefty two-year, $15.5 million contractwith the Tennessee Titans (solely because he is a former first-round pick). The Titans were hoping to unlock something in Murray while the Chargers wisely went in a different direction.
And while the 2024 season is still young, it appears that the same Murray who showed up in Los Angeles is showing up in Tennessee. The former Charger turned in a dreadful performance in Week 2 against the New York Jets and was a key reason why the team lost to Aaron Rodgers and Co.
Chargers clearly don't miss Kenneth Murray after he signed with the Titans
While Murray struggles in Tennessee, the Chargers have a revamped linebacker room that has been playing at a high level thus far this season. The team reunited with veteran linebacker Denzel Perryman, who has become a leader for this defense and is far more productive than Murray ever was.
Alongside Perryman is two young linebackers who both bring a lot to the table. Second-year linebacker Daiyan Henley has really blossomed under the new Chargers coaching staff into a productive member of the defense. Rookie Junior Colson has all the potential in the world, and has the potential to develop into one of the best starting linebackers in the sport.
Fixing the linebacker position has been a huge reason for the Chargers' early defensive success and swapping out Murray for improvements is the source of that fix. There is no way around it.
It gets even better for the Chargers, too. Because Murray signed for what he signed for, the Chargers are projected to get a fifth-round compensatory pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Los Angeles essentially got draft capital for improving at linebacker.
Not only that, but the team also brought in two former members of the Titans who are playing at a much higher level in LA. The team signed Kristian Fulton to a one-year flier and to the surprise of many (this writer included), he has played at a high level thus far. If he continues to do that, he will be one of the best signings of the entire 2024 offseason.
ADVERTISING
The Chargers also traded a 2026 seventh-round pick to the Titans for defensive back Elijah Molden. Molden's versatility has already been huge for the Chargers as he started in place of the injured Alohi Gilman in Week 2, coming away with an interception in the process.
Not only did the Chargers get better via addition by subtraciton by getting rid of Murray, but the team actively improved at the sake of the Titans as well.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.

Titans signed Kenneth Murray. We got ex Titans Fulton, Molden and Tart playing meaningful snaps. Titans GM helped build our team. Must be a horrible evaluatorComment
