Tough news for the rookie.

Tough break. Literally.

Sucks to hear as I was really excited to see Sims on the field this year, but if we had to have a big injury, RB was a good position to have it at. I am very confident in the trio of Martin, Rainey and James. I think one of them can emerge into a good receiving threat and fulfill Sims' role while he's gone.

Is it wrong that I'm kind of annoyed right now we drafted him to begin with? Our interior o-line is trash but we invested a premium pick into our deepest position and now he's practically out until like November.

Still pissed we picked him. We needed OL help and it was very glaring in the preseason that the interior of the OL is garbage. Hopefully Mankins can improve it enough to not have McCown on his ass for 90% of the game.
