STL Fan Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Watching the game, he grabbed his elbow and dropped to the ground after making a throw, untouched. He is now on the sidelines with his elbow wrapped and his hand tucked in his belt to immobilize the arm. He's not moving it at all, and appeared to be in great pain when the trainers moved it a certain way on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing this on numerous pitchers in baseball, he will be out for a minimum of 3-4 weeks if not the whole year. I'm sure it is some sort of ligament or tendon damage. how long depend if it is a strain or torn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I saw him saying "it popped" to the trainer and then repeating that a couple times as he made the throwing motion. I had him as my qb2 behind Brady and traded him yesterday to a guy who benched McNabb and started DelHomme today. I almost feel guilty.

Hugh-mongus Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 That's ashame, as it looked like Delhomme might have a nice season. If he is out for an extended period, that will likely hurt Steve Smith's value quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have him as my #2 and sat Romo today for him plus I have Smith. Needless to say I lost today and with Smith his value will be lessened if Jake is out for the year.
