Tamme was back in as of the last Decker TD, I believe. Looked like a weird nerve thing in the elbow or something.
I know Kuper was carted, so that's bad. Got the impression it was an ankle, lower leg thing. Which would probably be better than a knee. |

But that lower leg might be his broken ankle rearing it's ugly head

It didn't look good based on the reaction.

Gary Miller said X rays were "ok". Not bad as feared. (Kuper)

Bad enough that it looks like we will lose Kupes for at least a week ( or more) again . I think it was the same ankle as last year. He wasn't able to put much weight on it.

It WAS the same ankle for Kupe as last year. I really hope the report that it isnt broken again is true.?? But we have no official report. He is gonna be out for sometime in all likelihood as he was on crutches and had a lower leg boot on in the locker room.
I'm just worried about long term problems with that leg.. He might need a full off season to really fully heal and regain the leg strength and conditioning. You can definitely see a difference in size between his lower left leg and right leg still. But if he has broken that ankle again them I'm starting to worry about some kind of osteopenia or genetic weakness in bones with all the bone breaks he has had?! Anyway, no use speculating on that until we know what happened for sure. Heal up big fella and get back in there ASAP.. we need you at full strength and power! Really glad we have Rameriz at least who can hold his own pretty well and is not a giant step down at right guard. |

Kuper is probably the toughest guy in the league so it's defiantly not just a sprained ankle

Anytime a player can't walk off on own power he us usually done for the year. When you can barely walk off with help it isn't good.

Hopefully it was just some scar tissue tearing away...

Kuper left the stadium in a walking boot & on crutches, Tamme is fine.

When a guy needs help off the field, it usually means theyll be out for awhile. I expect him to be out at least 4 weeks.
