Huge news - way sooner than expected. Hopefully the momentum with Oz continues - he’s got a month of practices before season starts - even if he begins the year coming off the bench this is a huge step forward!

Yikes. Marvels of modern medicine. Or he’s just a quick healer. Patella tendon tear is a pretty devastating injury and after seeing him ‘limp off’ after he got it was pretty admirable. Dude must have an extremely high pain tolerance. Here’s to him not rushing back.

Happy he heals quick, but hope he isn't rushing it. Any set backs and he goes to IR if they need the roster spot.

Moving very smoothly. I’m not seeing any signs of a limp.

Amazing news!

Apparently Braxton Jones took first team snaps at LT today and Benedet took second team snaps at LT.

The idea that Benedet was out of the picture at LT seems to have been to focus the competition between Amagadje and Wills, and not because he was out of it?

And hopefully all of that becomes moot with Trapilo coming back!

Today Ben said Ozzy looked really good in practice. Then he immediately said he will not play against the Jets and that Theo will start. Seeing as they were willing to rotate Theo and Braxton at LT I expect they will do the same with Ozzy as he returns to the field. Maybe we’re a couple weeks out for that.

I am glad they are making sure Oz gets the work in and builds himself back. I think week 6 is when we see him back on the game day roster maybe week 8 is when he starts.

Gordon I think is week 5 or 6 with him having practiced in full all week but he still needs some time. Allen seemed to say he looked pretty good out there though.
