    I heard PatDStat say on his podcast earlier this week that he's seen encouraging things in regards to Foreman, but that he wasn't allowed to go into details.

    Will he play week 1? Probably not, but he may be ready before week 6 which means we wouldn't put him on PUP.

    As I said before, sad, but I don't think this kid is coming back.

    The data on rbs coming back from this injury isn't good. However treatment may have improved. Id rather see the Texans just shut him down for the year and see if we can get him close to 100% next year

    If Foreman doesn't play this year, they've gotta draft a RB early in the draft

    Probably means more redzone woes.

    Foreman is the only RB that is built for BoB's system. If he were healthy he'd be the starter right now.

    He's the only RB on this team with any talent. Miller just cannot break any tackles, you lay a finger on him and he goes down. Blue is just mediocre.

    Unfortunately, I'm not too optimistic that foreman will be fully healthy. They've been unusually quiet about foreman. I don't think they expect him to be back.

    Maybe he's trying to motivate him?

    I never put anything past BoB. Foreman in 9 games last season only out carried Miller once.

    I've always wondered.
    Hunt went 3 picks before D'onta (86th-89th).
    If both were there at 89 I wonder who we would have picked.
    Probably D'onta, as I remember (iirc) Hunt wasn't rated as highly draft stock-wise as he has performed in the NFL so far.

    A shame. This week would have been perfect for him to come back. The Jags are pretty bad against the run so far this season.

    Who needs D'onta or Leveon when you can get Josh Ferguson
