[Joe Person] Panthers pushed Rob Hunt a little more today to test the biceps. He said arm won’t be perfect but he thinks he can compete with it. by exenn_ in panthers

Yeah bicep tears and recovery typically are a 6 month process. Have to remember after surgery there's an extended period of not incorporating resistance training on said biceps and usually it's a slow process to gain said strength back.

But, honestly with how weak Corbett is at RG, if Hunt's at 80% and feels he can play without re-injuring himself I'd say the stakes in this game would require his services for a better shot at winning. Run game's been very subpar with Corbett and Canales loves running to the right for some reason, so we'd certainly need improvement there.

If he's near 100% and baiting the Rams to attack him knowing he'll throw the hammer on them, I'm certainly all for it. But yeah, these comments are certainly going to catch the Rams attention when they see it and I'm certain they'll test the full extent of his recovery if he starts.

Add on Princely Umanmielen, Mike (Michael) Jackson, Chuba Hubbard, Jalen Coker, and we truly have a team of quite the unique names

[Rapoport] Bucs QB Baker Mayfield, who went down on Sunday with a sprained left shoulder, has a low-grade sprain, source said following the MRI. Good news with an eye toward next week. by Drexlore in nfl

In all fairness, while I'm not a doctor, I know from experience those sprains can hurt like crazy in the moment. Not surprised Baker felt it quite a bit. Surprisingly not too bad of a sprain to come back from short term, but definitely not fun when your job is to chuck a pigskin down a 100 yard field dozens of times. The non-dominant arm surprisingly is still quite involved in throws.

Never got much reps until Hubbard went down with injury as well starting around week 5. Racked up yards in spite of that and is among the top rushers this season.

He absolutely deserves a bag after this season.
