combatbengal Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Any word on his injury? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walzav29 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I'd bet he's out for the year. The slot looks to be the worst position in the NFL. That was a pretty big blow to his knee. Haven't heard yet, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Hobson said it looks to be a "serious knee injury" and is likely lost for the year.It's good they have Caldwell. Not much dropoff in my opinion.I also think that bringing back Quan Cosby should be a no-brainer at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derekshank Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 It's a bummer... but he's got 10 months to heal and rehab before next year's training camp.Now, go get Quan Cosby. He's a great all-around STer, and can play the slot in a pinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Ray Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 It's a bitch but that's the NFL. We do have other options, luckily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I like Shipley and am bummed about losing him, but I don't think he's quite the immense talent that he has been pegged as by many. I agree with Derek, Caldwell isn't a notable downgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjakq27 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I was always concerned about his durability. Hope he is able to come back though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Reports are that the Bengals have signed Andrew Hawkins off the PS to take his spot. Armon Binns signed to the PS in Hawkins' place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Not the UC WR I'd have preferred, to be truthful...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Ray Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I wonder why they're not interested in Quan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spor_tees Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Hawkins gives them a lot more speed in the slot and he was good in the return game in the preseason. With how big and fast these guys are getting in the NFL, guys like Shipley are becoming a thing of the past. Guys like TJ that can take a hit and get back up are becoming more popular. Unfortunately, TJ lost a step way to fast and everyone noticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Shipley is 6'0" 188 lbs. Simpson is 6'2" 190 lbs. Shipley is not that small.Now Hawkins... he's 5'7" 175 lbs. Yeah... that's pretty damn small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I wonder why they're not interested in Quan? I still say it's because after the addition of Tate Quan was no better than the 3rd or 4th best option at the slot. That said, Tate has already made several very questionable decisions as a returner....so I'm hopining Hawkins gets a look there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I wonder why they're not interested in Quan?Probably because he signed with the Broncos today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalPimp Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hate to see that happen to Shipley.....even though Dalton didnt use him anyways (4 receptions for 14 yards) I really like the kid. One Hell of a 3rd WR.Here's hoping he recovers well.Caldwell better show something...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Just to add to the fun, Hobs reports that Green was limited in practice today with a toe injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
