He strained his pec lifting today, might need surgery. Mark LeVoir @ LT Sunday.

The fun continues!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
I think Devaney just had a stroke.
 
We are going to have to find another tackle, and release another player because of it. Gee wiz.

I dont think its that big of a hit.

Its not like we are going to lose out because we lost our LT, who has underperformed this year. IMO Levoir will do a serviceable job.
 
I'm glad that there aren't any children who are near my approximate location at this time. Their ears would probably be scarred for life.
 
chris clemons always plays great vs us... i cant remember if he is a LE or RE tho? i wouldnt fancy levoir in that match up tho

According to a JT article on the PD site, it sounds like Saffold will need surgery and go on IR.

I just don't know what to say. There are no words to describe this injury situation.

Maybe we should bring back the trainer that was fired.

Won't the new tackle just take Saffold's position when he is IR'd?

Yeah. Hoping he doesn't get IR'd though. Laurinaitis had a pec injury during preseason (I think) and he was able to pull out of it.

Yeah, the new tackle will, but now we don't have any backups. That's the problem. Either Levoir or Goldberg gets hurt, then what? If he's out, we will have to sign another tackle.
 
Rams placed LT Rodger Saffold on injured reserve with a torn pectoral, ending his season.

Saffold's year was ended by a weight-room mishap. One of the league's top rookie lineman in 2010, Saffold regressed badly this season, grading out as Pro Football Focus' fifth-worst left tackle through 10 weeks. He'll be replaced by journeyman G/T Mark LeVoir, who has made just three career starts in 38 games since entering the league in 2006. Already the victim of horrendous pass blocking for much of the season, things just got tougher for Sam Bradford.

Rams promoted OT Kevin Hughes from the PS to replace him
