Time for Jenkins to shine.

[Ming the Merciless]

ugh

that fucking sucks

[The Franchise]

Time for Jenkins to shine.

LMAO

Yeah.....ok.

[Skyy God]

So he's out 6, presumably.

[Rain Man]

How long are you out with that injury? A sports hernia sounds less bad than it looked on TV.

[ptlyon]

Just when we were poised to make a playoff run...

[Fritz88]

Is there any team in the league with more injuries than the Chiefs after the start of the season?

I don't know about a sports hernia but a regular one in your pelvic region will damn sure sideline you for several weeks.

[siberian khatru]

That's like an Achilles in your groin, right?

[Ming the Merciless]

We get Stephenson back this week guys!

throw him in the slot?

[Skyy God]

throw him in the slot?

Long arms.

[Dunerdr]

Let's be fer realz yo he falls down 9 out of 10 times after the catch and drops the ball 50% of his targets. His big play Monday night is the only "good" play I can think of this season for him. But I did miss part of Miami. Next guy up let's get it! Jenkins Hammond hemmingway time to do work!

[Skyy God]

Rotoworld says 2-8.

Avery is going to Philadelphia, presumably to be operated on by sports hernia specialist Dr. William Meyers. Recovery timetables for this procedure can range anywhere from 2-8 weeks. Avery, the Chiefs' second-most targeted player, had 14 catches for 156 yards and no touchdowns through the first four games. Look for A.J. Jenkins and Frankie Hammond to fill in on the outside.

[xztop123]

Not good. I think this is probably the worst injury (aside from DJ)

The guy is our only legit 4.3 speed player

[Easy 6]

Cant say I really care, Hammond/Jenkins/Wilson pretty much bring the same stuff.

Get well, Donnie... blah blah blah.

[RunKC]

I hope DAT is back this week. He would give is a nice dimension in the slot

[xztop123]

8 weeks sounds closer to accurate.

When you hear about the injury from a dr it sounds pretty bad

[loochy]

As an FYI, a sports hernia is not an actual hernia

its just a soft tissue strain in the hip/groin fold area

Not that he's any good, but Jenkins has 4.3 speed.

Except for Jenkins.

And DAT.

Meh. He'll be out for a couple weeks. I had one of these in HS. It's pretty straight-forward.

Hey guys, it's okay.

Strongside had one of these when he was 17.

You know, back when he was a world class athlete.

[Skyy God]

Happened in Q3 of Monday's game.

[loochy]

Then when do you think his ETA back from injury is?

whatever was mentioned earlier in the thread.

it depends on the severity of the tear and so forth.

surgery is surgery

[Unsmooth-Moment]

Who needs Avery when we are in 3 TE sets? We'll be ok.

[Strongside]

Hey guys, it's okay.

I'll have you know I was a 2-star baseball recruit motherfucker!!!!!:)

[tecumseh]

Losing reps, losing rhythm. He seemed to be coming on a bit. Hoping Hammonds brings it.

Next man up to drop some passes.

[RunKC]

Please cut this guy in the spring and use the $3.5 million we get back to go get Maclin in FA

[Strongside]

Great idea. Let's get another receiver that can't stay on the field.

[The Franchise]

I don't see Maclin leaving Philly. They're already discussing a new deal now.

[O.city]

Jenkins will probably end up sucking, but the Chiefs brass seems to really like him. Hopefully it's a situation where the Avery injury is a blessing.

[Eleazar]

That's like an Achilles in your groin, right?

They used to call it hockey groin, but there are many different pathologies. Something is separated from the public bone, maybe more than one thing. It's probably a 6 week injury at least.

[O.city]

Think the faid would take a 6th rounder for James jones?

[Eleazar]

Great idea. Let's get another receiver that can't stay on the field.

He had an ACL injury. Common for wide receivers. Other than that:

SEASON TEAM GP
2009 PHI 15
2010 PHI 16
2011 PHI 13 - missed first 3 games due to a virus, not a durability issue
2012 PHI 15
2013 PHI 0 - ACL injury
2014 PHI all 4 games so far

Nope, he can't stay on the field :rolleyes:

[temper11]

Smith going in to SF and tearing it up... priceless. Smith going in and tearing it up by throwing the ball to Jenkins?....... FOCKING PRICELESS.

You might actually see some of the faithful leaping to their death from the upper deck of the new stadium.

[Strongside]

When I had mine it was pretty gross. It didn't really bother me most of the time...but when I would cough or exert any sort of force that caused a pressure buildup there was a small lump that would raise up around my waistline. It was pretty disturbing.

[Baby Lee]

There's a considerable recovery period, but hernia repairs with Marlex mesh overwhelmingly result in a stronger abdominal wall than we are even born with.

Case in point, worker's compensation very very rarely award any permanent disability of any sort for hernia repair. They assure that all medical and time off has properly been paid and congratulate the worker on his new robust status. Their [along with the doctor/medical expert] advice and explanation proves quite helpful in settling and closing such cases.

Call TO or Ochocinco....lol

If he only has an inguinal hernia, his recovery time would be shorter, but sports hernia can mean a lot of different things.

Good point, I don't know how precise the reporters are being with their language. But if they're talking about a run-of-the-mill abdominal wall bulge or tear, then a Marlex mesh repair won't impair him in the long run.

Side note non sequitur, I don't know how many watch The Knick, but it's endlessly fascinating watching these guys [even if fictionalized/conflated] come up with the technological and procedural advances that the industrial revolution and urbanization afforded them at the turn of the century. A recent episode focused on the advancement of using silver wire to sew hernias instead of inferior [and deteriorating] threads and tendon.

Which makes no sense. He's done nothing but screw up when he's been in.

Hemingway's time then? He needs reps.

Chargers are pretty banged up too. Possibly more so than the Chiefs.

Is he better at not dropping catches than Donnie boy?

How cool would it be for him to throw out the 1st pitch at the K?

Or 5% BAW pro se, 7.5%+ represented.

Are you talking MO, or IL? In MO I never closed over 2.5%, closed a good 30-35 for no PPD, and never encountered anyone who secured representation for a purely hernia claim. That was St.L. city and down the eastern border/bootheel.

7.5% in MO sounds like waiting out for the city's most liberal ALJ. Sounds par for the course in IL.

MO. Right or wrong, I think the ALJs are biased to rate surgical injuries higher than nonsurgical, regardless of outcome.

Can Ocho play? When he already playing for the CFL?

[Baby Lee]

MO. Right or wrong, I think the ALJs are biased to rate surgical injuries higher than nonsurgical, regardless of outcome.

Unless things have changed radically in the past 5-8 years, it's probably still somewhat a function of who you get in front of. Especially outside the city.

I have no problem philosophically with a bit of money for going under the knife, even if they have to call it permanent disability that objectively doesn't exist. But it does shortchange non-surgical back strains that do leave workers creaky for the rest of their days, even if all the rehab they needed was chiropractic.

[J Diddy]

Ah Shit man. You done broke yo dick./Bowe

[OldSchool]

Not too big of a loss, but he was more dependable than our other receivers after Bowe.

Avery is a considerable loss. Who's going to play 2nd now?

[OldSchool]

Avery is a considerable loss. Who's going to play 2nd now?

My guess is Fankie Hammond Jr. or AJ Jenkins, I don't think that Hemingway has anywhere near enough speed to play the role that Avery did. They might give AJ Jenkins the nod early on just because it is against SF and he might play with a chip on his shoulder. Fully expect Reid to just rotate guys though.

[OldSchool]

And TADA, just like that. According to Roto (I can't copy and paste for some reason), AJ Jenkins is getting the start in place of Donnie Avery.

Exactly what I was going to say but you beat me to the punch. I think he also may have to deal with his subflamanian pladileps somewhere in the gonads

Hammond has looked like stank ass thus far.

He can't even do a decent job of catching/returning punts yet.

Jenkins is getting the start. Seems like the coaching staff have seen enough of Hammond for now.

[runnercyclist]

DAT! Avery = Wally Pipp.

[Rausch]

Who needs Avery when we are in 3 TE sets? We'll be ok.

I hope you're right.

Besides, Avery only averages 40 rec yards a game. Oh's no! How will we ever recover from that loss!?!

[KCFalcon59]

Another injury requiring surgery. You've got to be pullin mcgroin! Hope Jenkins makes the most of the opportunity.

[WhiteWhale]

As an FYI, a sports hernia is not an actual hernia

its just a soft tissue strain in the hip/groin fold area

... Well yeah. STrains are partial tears.

It's when the abdominal muscles tear off of the pelvis. There are varying degrees of severity.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I'm not concerned from a quality of play standpoint, but more so a depth view. I also don't agree with the notion that we have lost our one deep threat in Avery. Jenkins is the same kind of receiver, and has made downfield plays for us in very limited time.
