There's likely going to be a lot of information coming by early next week, so this thread will be necessary...

Watching the highlight pack of the game, when Nichols gets up after being fallen on, he points at his shoulder and then points straight down......to me, he's saying his shoulder popped out....that it's dislocated. So if we're looking at a dislocated or separated shoulder, what is the recovery time on something like that? Is it a season ender?

Bridge would be better then Willy.  That being said I'd way rather we bring in anyone else ... I'd rather put Buck in uniform then those two guys. 

Thatd probably be the healthiest he has ever been in a bomber jersey.

People forget that Drew "Pre-relentless and repeated beatings" Willy was a pretty good QB... I just don't think he'll ever be back to that point...

Drew Tate has been coaching since 2007.

 

O'Shea later today - "He looks good. We'll see how he is Thursday. He's tough. He's a veteran. He doesn't need to practice"

Next year the third string guy will just be on the PR

Harder to keep quality guys if they aren't getting a pay check though.

yeah I don't get the CFLs logic with the 2 rostered qbs thing... we've seen games this year where the 3rd guy has had to play.

he would make a good slot receiver..and the option to use him as a throw option on a lateral pass would be intruiging

Bridge should have a chat with Sinopoli.

would be smart of him to make that conversion...especially with the 2 QB only allowed to be on game day roster...he'd be the perfect emergency QB in a game where the back-up gets hurt..

I'd be surprised if the CFL doesn't backtrack on the 2QB roster plan...

He said Thursday, but didn't say which month or year. Secretive as always. Nuef will be ready for the start of the regular season too... in 2022.

“......and smart....”.   He can throw a ball just with his mind. 

Nichols not in a sling or anything has to be a good sign, right?

Where is Neufeld? I've heard nothing of him. Last known photo. O'Shea says he's almost ready to go!

For sure..any structural damage...especially with a shoulder it would be slinged at the least, or pinned down immobilzed

You can't contain pipes like those in a simple sling.  Has to be metal bands and rivets or nothing.  Looks like thy picked option 2

He knows a lot about squirrels and humidity

Matt Nichols is on the field watching practice.  Arm hanging loose at his side. Which does not mean the injury is any less serious. Oshea will share more after practice.

Could have a brace instead of a sling.

And a good day to you sir!

No sling, no fracture, not humerus.

wearing a tank top and there is nothing on the shoulder

According to CFL.ca, Henry Burris is still a FA... in case we're still looking for that veteran back up...

"No, mister has health problems"
