Only out a month, should be back in time for season.

That's a relief.

You know...how is it people seem to always get hurt for the remainder of preseason? (I'm not suggesting Samuels is faking...just odd is all)

Actually if it is only a month, he could actually get back in time for the Skins last preseason game, but Gibbs would probably hold him out even if he was healthy. This preseason stuff is just scary!!! It like practicing for war, people still get hurt.

Thanks for the update Gmanc

Hopefully he makes a speedy recovery. I'm not very comfortable with our O-line depth.

Wahooooo!! Great News!!

Re: Samuels out up to 4 weeks (From JLC)
 

lets hope so

Re: Samuels out up to 4 weeks (From JLC)
 

Honestly, I would rather have him sit out week 1 if he is not 100% by opening day than rush back into the lineup at 90% and aggravate any injury. I am really bummed by this as we have good depth at LB, CB, safety, etc., but we don't have a solid backup at LT.

well i wsh we could of avoided this but at least it isnt longer

Re: Samuels out up to 4 weeks (From JLC)
 

Yeah, could have been better but could have been a lot worse.

If this is the biggest setback we face this preseason then I'll be happy with that.

I agree with you 100%. I think that we can handle the fins with out Samuels in the line up. I would much rather see him play out the whole season rather than come back pre-maturely and run the risk of loosing him for the entire season...

Re: Samuels out up to 4 weeks (From JLC)
 

Hopefully he will come back 100% in week one.

So does Wade take over or stay at guard?

Gibbs said that Wade is going to stay at guard, which is probably a good thing. I would prefer to see Wade try to get LG down pat and experiment at LT, rather than putting Wade at LT, putting another guy at LG, and then shifting Wade back to LG after Samuels returns.
