MKnight82 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 We would be fools to count on this guy ever playing a down of football again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Wait, I thought he tore his ACL and LCL. Why would he have problems with his foot now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripsean21 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Dude have we ever signed a dude with a past and it not failed miserably? Gallette and Foster almost the exact same thing it’s crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Every player injured here seems to end up with some kind of nerve damage. What in the world was Larry Hess doing lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we should count or not make a wise move for a replacement if value meets opportunity. We haven’t invested much in Foster you can sign a FA or draft a LB in the draft. But yeah very low expectations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus21 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 My wife just tore her ACL and Meniscus...... we talked with her surgeon in depth about the repair because I was worried about nerve damage and foot drop. It turns out that the main nerve that controls your foot runs directly beside the LCL and makes the repair much more complicated. Tearing multiple ligaments also slows the healing process because you have multiple donor sights that need to recover. The fact that he is regaining feeling in his feet is a good sign because it’s showing nerve regeneration. Jaylen Smith had an absolutely devastating knee injury, and was able to return to a pro bowl level. Obviously, people recover from injury in different ways, but I am optimistic that Ruben can make a full recovery from his injury. I would not expect him to be ready for the start of the 2020 season, but I could see him coming off IR around week 8. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaiphoon Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Yeah, he's done here. Not gonna play this year and I seriously doubt he will ever make it back onto the field for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna play this year and I seriously doubt he will ever make it back onto the field for us Without a 2nd rd Pick and get a quality LB in this years draft will be hard. Free Agency might be our only way to get a good LB. My man C Littleton hopefully there for the picking. Sorry for mentioning his name in so many other posts. He’s fast and very productive LB, like JDR said he was looking for his Defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Kyle Shanahan in the Super Bowl. Reuben Foster done. Bruce Allen just keeps giving and giving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That nerve is particularly vulnerable with those injuries. But even with this guy as an athlete, I need to caution you guys on expecting him to play this year. He's just now getting feeling into the feet. I'm not optimistic he will be where he needs to be by Week 8. My guess is that he doesn't fully recover (if he ever does - but using the most optimistic time-frame I can think of) until next January.

Is it worth keeping this guy around for another ENTIRE YEAR, knowing that the team will get nothing out of him? Another dude hanging out in the trainers room can’t be the type of culture Ron is trying to build. Dead weight has been dropped all over the front office and coaching staff, time to start on the roster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Draper Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I don’t realize his injury was so serious MLB is now a top tier need as Foster is our Alex Smith of the defense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
