Oh, I know that.....

But when it comes to speed, at least Nicholas isn't another Brooking.......

After reading that it doesn't sound like he will be ready this week.

Its an MCL.

Any real news updates/links? Or are you just going off a hunch Jedi?

If we get hit with the rookie injury again, I'm going to be extremely disappointed.

Not a good idea for the long term. The team has LB depth and quality at that as was evident during the Browns game. Nicholas will be just fine. Let Spoon rest his knee.

Of course everything is speculation at this point but I don't put a lot of faith in a tweet. You really don't know if it is actually Spoon posting the information or not.

He posted the tweet, but he's not allowed to leak info. I personally see him out 4-6 weeks.
