Fire Aaron Hill !!!

[El Guapo]

Matt LaFleur, Tucker Kraft, and Zach Tom all sustained pectoral injuries. I'll just premptively start the "Fire Aaron Hill" thread for the negative nancy's out there!

(p.s. Aaron Hill is our new Strength & Conditioning coach)

I don't think there is anything to worry about there but did anybody else notice the last paragraph about Jacobs dealing with a hamstring injury? Maybe nothing and its early but could we catch a break just once?

 

[El Guapo]

I'm most worried about LaFleur recovering in time.

Yes, I saw the Jacobs injury. I hurt my glute and my back bowling last night. I bet you dollars to donuts that Jacobs will be ready to go before me!

I forgot how big Kingsley is. He was standing beside Van Ness in some film review I was watching and he appeared a sliver taller and Lukas isn’t exactly short. I know that doesn’t align with their RAS # but maybe Enagbare wears 3” spikes or Lukas wears racing flats idk

You convinced me, I'm on board.

More about the Tucker Kraft injury. Sounds like he'll miss a bulk of the summer practices, but will be ready in plenty of time for the regular season.

Packers TE Tucker Kraft injured while bench pressing: Muscle 'just popped off the bone'

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was bench pressing when he tore his pectoral muscle while training this offseason. The second-year tight end is expected to be out until training camp while he recovers from surgery. “Just a regular lift,” Kraft told Bill Hu

Sounds like we dodged a bullet.

Hopefully. Assuming he does proper rehab. I'm always skeptical that a Torn Pectoral Guy can be 100% relied upon to do that, because if he used basic gym sense he probably wouldn't have injured himself in the first place. He needs to be extremely disciplined and not try to get it all back at once. As it is, this is probably going to set him back in his conditioning going into the season, and there will always be at least some risk of reinjury or sympathetic injury to the other pectoral from compensation.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that this was a lesson learned.

My biggest worry is Lafleur - how many practices is he going to miss? We need him coaching at 100% ASAP.

Just remember that these guys are all being pushed by the teams to improve and be the best, pushed by fans and media to dominate, and pushed by themselves to make the team / be the starter / be an all-pro / get the next big contract. Add on top that these guys are mostly in their early-to-mid-20s, which I suppose is sort of to your point, and you get these injuries. I suspect that the Strength & Conditioning coaches are guiding players to use proper technique, but these guys are just pushing their bodies to extremes to meet expectations.

Sounds like we dodged a bullet.

Timing is everything, as is the case with injuries. This very well could have happened in November, during a bye week workout.

Another injury, LVN broke his thumb.

Fortunately, as some of us have heard/said in life, "just the tip".

Which hand? I wonder if this takes the Lukas van Ness flea-flicker out of Lafleur's playbook.
