Chester Taylor Carted Off Field

oh dear....

Chester Taylor Carted Off Field

Vikings RB Chester Taylor left Blakeslee Stadium on a cart this morning with a right shoulder or right arm injury. He was hit after catching a pass and, after a short period of time, appeared to be in a lot of pain.

If this injury is serious, the stock of rookie RB Adrian Peterson will go through the roof. Peterson is already highly regarded in fantasy football, but the starting job would move him up into the top 15 running backs. Taylor rushed for 1,216 yards last season with six TDs and will still have some fantasy value if this injury is not serious. Stay tuned for more details on the injury.

Is someone a little too happy about this?:icon_lol:

 

I hope it's nothing serious.

 

Compound fracture of the forearm...


sucks to be him.

 

The smiley face was a bit much for the thread title. Though it did make me chuckle a bit.

I personally prefer the Eagles to be healthy as well as their opponents. It makes victories mean more and you don't have to listen to excuses from opposing fans.

 

"Mr. Peterson, please answer the purple courtesy telephone, Mr. Peterson? HELLO! MR. PETERSON!!!"

 

Does that mean AD will be the starter on opening day?

Where did you hear this? It's a bruise according to the news I've read.

 

I hope he heals!

 

thats because he is a bears fan, division rivalry...LOL

 

NEVER a good sign when you're carted off the field. Atleast nine times out of ten it isn't.

 

I'd to rain on the OP's parade but they did X-rays and it's just a bruise and he is day to day:
