According to a report, the Green Bay Packers' first-round draft pick is battling a possible re-aggravation of an injury he already suffered earlier this preseason.

Damn, this can't be happening again?
Ted has to be saying to himself, WTF!!! I'll never draft another Lineman in the 1st round again!!!

The other news in the article is Mulumba suffered a knee injury and is now questionable for play Friday night.

I hope it's not serious, he was showing some skills for an UDFA.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

"Early indications" are that the sprained ankle isn't serious.

Even if that is the case, this is so bloody annoying. Just once could we be relatively healthy as a team? Is that really so much to ask?

I'm gonna be optimistic rather than freaking out about this.

1.They got him out there so fast this week. An ankle seems to be a critical part of a Lineman.

2.They need to rest him till the regular season opener. It's the best thing to do for his health and our team. It may lither his progress, but i'd rather have him at full strength than set backs after set backs after set backs.

3. Good thing we got other D-Linemen stepping up this year, otherwise we'd be in trouble if he really got hurt.

4. I'm a believer that Jones will be a huge X-Factor this year. Some people think he's Justin Harrell 2.0.... Ya shut the hell up 🙂 He'll be just fine. Just pray for a healthy recovery when week 1 arrives.

Honestly I'm trying to look on the bright side of this... does this up the chances they keep 8 DL? (with Neal splitting time at OLB).

A sprain takes time, it's been less than two weeks, he won't be 100% this year. Personally, I would not have played him at all until the last preseason game and then on a limited basis. It would have set his progress back, but I would have traded that in order to have him as healthy as possible. I'm disappointed with this.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Mucky Tundra (17h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (20h) : HUMP DAY

beast (20h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (20h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (20h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (20h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (20h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (20h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (20h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (20h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (21h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (22h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (22h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (22h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (22h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (23h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (23h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.
