DABEARSDABOMB Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Lets hope his injury wasn't serious. IIRC, a poster on here either knew him / he was a family friend. He has had a good preseason. Below is what Biggs had to say about him in his most recent piece. 10 a. Safety Anthony Jefferson had a nice training camp and made plays on special teams, enough that it looked like he might at least get his name mentioned in discussion for a job. But he left with an arm injury in the first quarter. If it’s anything semi-serious, that is likely going to derail his hopes. The undrafted rookie from UCLA played well in training camp also.

madlithuanian Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Is there anything on his injury? He is a family friend of my wife's maid of honor. I heard he's being doing well on S/T, and could make the practice squad. Lets hope his injury wasn't serious. IIRC, a poster on here either knew him / he was a family friend.

DABEARSDABOMB Posted September 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I thought it was you that knew him Lith. Haven't seen anything but given our need at safety (and the fact that I think safety is one of the positions where undrafted guys can play...people get too overhyped on measureables where intangibles such as ability to close / react / read d and of course simple things like ability to tackle and take the right angles get overlooked. I thought he actually was on the outside looking in at one of the final roster spots, but would presume he's a lock at the practice squad (as long as he isn't out for any significant time). Given we have a lot of garbage at safety, some of which is aging or Vereen (who the staff clearly doesn't like), I figured Jefferson would get his shot at some point this season (if he kept doing what he was doing). Hopefully minor injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesson44 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Right there with ya! I think they said he has a broken arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Yeah...the sucks. But, I hear he was placed on IR...so it looks like he did make the squad. Next season...maybe we have another good body for the secondary and S/T! I think they said he has a broken arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
