ArmyBengal Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Isn't there a different "PUP" list for camp than the one that actually puts the player out of games through week 6 ??I could be wrong, but I thought that was what happened to Casey Hampton last year for the Steelers.He came in out of shape and they PUP'd him until he was fit to practice. Once again, I may be wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, I may be wrong...I saw another story saying McGahee, at least, is healthy and he could be taken off this list in a couple of days, so I believe you are correct Army.

ArmyBengal Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Obviously there are still issues they are dealing with, I am just thinking they aren't the variety that will result in them being out for large periods of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalByTheBay Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 From the Ravens page on CBS Sportsline:--Healthy and in shape, the Ravens' Willis McGahee appears ready for training camp next week. But the former Pro Bowl running back said he likely has to win back his starting job from Ray Rice."I'm pretty sure Ray is going to be the guy when we start out, but it's training camp," said McGahee. "It's a long season. No pressure. Like I say, it's not how you start. It's how you finish."McGahee (knee, ankle) opened training camp on the PUP list, but isn't expected to stay there past Thursday. "We want to make sure Willis' knee doesn't swell up," coach John Harbaugh said. "We want to make sure he can take the pounding of a workout and see how he responds."
