    Maybe I just don’t remember him when he was really new to the league, but yeah I don’t remember Cousins ever looking this in-shape.

    Well, I remember. He is looking pretty close to how he looked as a rookie. Whatever he is, he has lost a ton of weight, probably needed to in order to take some stress off of his Achilles. He is looking pretty solid. Got my fingers crossed for him.

    This is pretty deflating. Cousins is one of the things that has me real excited for the season. Hope it's nothing major.

    I hope he is going to be alright. He should just take it easy over the summer. Get into playing shape slowly. If quad injuries don't heal completely, things like this will keep happening.

    Hopefully he'll be ready for camp.

    But it seems like he has become injury prone sadly.

    It seems like we are cursed. Even life time Ironmen like Karl Malone or LeBron James have been getting hurt joining us.

    At least this doesn't appear to be non-contact. If it was a non-contact injury I would be a lot more worried. My guess purely based on this news is that its probably a knee sprain of some sort. What grade knee sprain I don't know but an MRI will likely be taken and then we will know more.

    Actually, they did catch a break. That's the issue. Anyways, word is he bumped knees with someone. Doesn't sound serious.

    Lets hope it was a freak thing and that he is able to join the team soon. In either case our chances of resigning him next summer just increased.

    Rubio's injury was ugly and it clearly a torn ACL right away. Given that the injury happened on Monday and we're just hearing about it now, I'm going to maintain some optimism that it's just a bone bruise.
