RB Chris "Beanie" Wells (Arizona Cardinals)

[Jake]

I agree with the reasons given, but I'm still sick of hearing them repeat themselves over and over again.

I'll be glad to hear some official news tomorrow, be it good or bad. I just want to know the score.

[Buckeye Nut]

I'm glad to hear that he's probably going to be able to play the USC game, but the thing that worries me the most is that this injury will be easily reaggrivated and we'll be going through this every week much like the Maurice Clarett stinger in 2002. But I suppose if this season ends up the same as that one I'd be okay with it.

Has there been any info as to what level of Turf Toe? Cause even though erbody is thinking that everything is oK, if it is bad it could require surgery to repair.

I definitely hope that it is just an aggravated tendon or something and not seriously damaged.

It's just this side of gangrene from what I hear.

No. We aren't even positive at this point that it is turf toe. He'll be undergoing treatment tomorrow and probably some tests so I suspect we'll have a clearer answer as to what exactly the injury is and the severity by this time tomorrow.

[Taosman]

Ross Homan lost a whole year, I believe, with a severe case, but that's unusual. Beanie is a warrior and would play if his wrist were broke and his foot felt like it was going to fall off.(didn't he do that last year?) Beanie is a great back with a history of injuries.

I still think with everyone saying it is "fine" they read the do not know if there is any type of damage until the swelling goes down and they can do an MRI or a bone scan. A bone scan is a very sophisticated x-ray and is done by the nuclear medicine department of radiology.

By the time they got off the field, I imagine that it was already swelled up. All you can do at that point is xray. It sounds like we will have the answer tomorrow.

If he does play against USC, he would more than likely not play the next two weeks, or very little, against Troy and Minnesota, so that he will be well ready for the game against Wisconsin.

I heard it was an abscess, and laminitis has since set in in his other foot.

They're going to have to put Beanie down.

I've got a sneaky "suspicion" that it's tendons or ligaments in his big toe! Severity? I don't know. Hold his arse out this week and get him as well as possible for USC.

[Thunder Dan]

yeah it's a good thing he isn't a race horse, he would be glue right now
