Harrell out

[SkinBasket]

According to the JSO blog, Harrell will not be taking part in the upcoming practice sessions due to a back injury.

One a positive note with obvious Super Bowl implications, Noah Herron is cleared to practice.

A list of other "injured" players can be found here;

Thats the problem with these OTAs, everyone makes a big deal about them when a player doesn't participate, it is like cell phones, How did we get by without them?

[Lurker64]

No big deal, McCarthy has shown repeatedly that he will sit anybody in preseason activities if there's any chance whatsoever that they'll aggravate an injury.

I have to admit, this is a tiny bit interesting because Harrell was seemingly healthy at the end of the season, and his previous problems were not reported as back problems. This seems to be something new. The other listed players are no surprise, and their injuries are listed as what we knew they had for problems at the end of the season.

Then again, as others have noted, MM seems exceedingly cautious about these things.

Man Tank, you have become over-bearingly negative

Yikes. Back injuries are scary because they can nag and nag. Hopefully it's just muscle strain and he can get it together.

Hopefully he hasn't put any bad weight on. Back and knee issues are worth being interested in when it comes to DT'S.

bLACKMON IS ALSO on the report. He truely can't stay healthy, hopefully Jolley can recover and be 100%.

Last year I was ok with him being jacked up but this year we should expected nothing less than for Harrell to come out strong and be a noticeable force in the middle. He was shown the money for doing almost nothing last season.

I though he would come into this season determined to make a name for himself but not like this. Unless this injury happened while working out or something football related my scale on him has started tipping the wrong way.

When your a first round pick and you can barely get through the Dline drills, that was when my red flag went up.

Get off this guy... Jesus, its only OTAS... Last year i believe woodson and harris didn't show up and people were hitting the fan...

I'll start talking shit about Harrell when training camp comes and if he isn't showing anything then...

UNTIL THEN... SILENCE... because I might have to bump this thread up when he is having his breakout year...

Yep, that drunk Favre guy was a real turd. Glad you raised the red flag on that one.

Very bad comparison. Harris and Woodson are vets who have proved themselves year after year against some of the best. JH hasnt even served up half a season. After being considered a risky move he needs to show he was worth the gamble.
