Tford Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) http://profootballta...-brian-cushing/ The injury Texans linebacker Brian Cushing suffered on Monday night may have ended his season. A source told PFT’s Mike Florio that the Texans’ medical staff fears Cushing suffered a torn ACL in Monday night’s win over the Jets. An MRI to reveal the severity of the injury will be conducted today. Cushing suffered the injury when Jets offensive lineman Matt Slauson hit him in the back of the knee, and he looked like he was in a lot of pain as he writhed on the ground. He was eventually able to limp to the locker room without assistance. The team’s first-round draft pick in 2009, Cushing has been one of the team’s best defensive players. He served a four-game suspension in 2010 but has never missed a game because of injury. Edited October 9, 2012 by Tford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooty Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Not good for Hou. Looked like Dobbins had replaced him but I'm not sure there is much FF value there. Bradie James? Is Sharpton on IR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tford Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 Bradie James will probably end up a 3 down player even though he really shouldn't be. Sharpton is on PUP I believe. Dobbins likely stays a 2 down LB until Sharpton proves his health. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 No skin in the game here, but Slauson should have a bunch of people go at his knees for the cheap shot he gave Cushing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why there is no grip from HOU is bc their OL is famous for those types of blocks WHICH ARE LEGAL! The fine by Goddell is unbelievabley tirantial and this os getting outa hand (like my made up word?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
