And Blackwell has a hamstring, so Smith or Stroman? Ugh.

Looks like surgery for Gordon, so he will be out longer than 4 weeks, now looking at Week 6.

 

 

As AZ said we will see a lot of Godwin in the slot.

With this it's not likely a displaced fracture and the surgery is likely just to put a plate and screws to secure it and help it heal.  Should be high confidence on his return.  

I'm not quite sold on Gordon.  He's shown flashes...but his consistency isn't there.  Was hoping for more.  But, with such a poor DL and playcalling, that alone can put DB's behind the 8 ball to truly assess them.

He finished last year on a high note playing well the last 5 games and started strong but a broken hand got in the way. Rookies rarely play consistently until playing against NFL players slows down for them . He will be just fine, at least he didnt have a knee or leg injury that would slow his speed down.

I hope you are right.  To me, he looks good.  Like  C+/B- good.  I was hoping for b+/a-...   But, I suspect he'll be here a while regardless.
