Donovan Jackson OUT for the rest of the year

Could he still opt for the trim procedure?

No excuses, keep on chuggin'.....had way worse injuries last year. Next man up. Every team is dealing with them. Go get 'em, Joe.

Uggh, that sucks!

I suspect they already talked through that with the docs?

This is probably a done deal at this point.

Do they roll with Huber there or are they going to do a major shuffle???

I dont know if anyone trusts (trusted) pff grades for OL...Huber scored 50 yesterday, Fries 78.

It'll be that much more challenging for Huber if Darrisaw is out...I wouldnt be surprised if they take a cautionary approach with CD and the bye coming up.

We won games with Skule last year, so.....big boy pants pulling up time. No way Darrisaw plays either.

I'm guessing we won't have Darrisaw next week either since it sounds like he is in the concussion protocol.

Didn't Darrisaw return to the game after his stinger? Did he get a different injury or was it from that same collision where he rammed his head straight into someone?

Different I believe but not sure. He had a neck injury, sat out a few plays, came back in and then had 'concussion symptoms' on another play. The Saw sure is injured a lot.

I would think it had to be related. Maybe he started feeling the symptoms after the few plays he came back for.

Under contract through 2029. Looks like it will be the Unicorn and Huber on the left side for Nola. Definitely need to add a vet swing tackle as Tiernan isn’t ready yet. Brandel could be another option when Jurgens gets back.

Fuck.

Do you consider seeing if you can pick up a center and move Brandel back to G.

CD has been hurt a lot as Sticky pointed out...I'm glad they picked-up Tiernan - agree that he needs to marinate for a year though.

Saw him out yesterday as the eligible guy...Got a penalty on one of those.

Losing Oliver and Jackson in the last 2 weeks is brutal.

The 2026 Oline played together a grand total of 3 games and didn't lose. Well done. That beats last year..... !

I wonder if Teasley has to go get a replacement or add another back up.

With Donovan Jackson hurt, I'm not sure Joe Huber or anyone else on the roster is the answer at left guard for a 4-0 team.

Think there's a case for the Vikings to make a trade like they did for Cam Robinson in 2024, though I have no idea who they could target.

I don't hate this idea either. https://t.co/qUAXWeGflz

Dunno, I think Huber could be ok there. It isn't like LT when we lost CD. Guard should be easier to be adequate.

I like Huber, he'll be ok. Van Demark hopefully can outplay what Skule did last year. 🙄
