Henry’s Foot Injury Thread

3rd and 3, a dump off to Henry, Henry has 70 yards of field ahead of him and 3 blockers in front of him... That feeling is amazing when you see that type of play unfold with Henry.. Gah I'm going to miss that.

 

Yea it’s going to be very weird not seeing 22 in the back field

 

Screens are actually where McNichols has shown off whatever he brings to the table.

 

McNichols will be able to hit those outside runs a lot faster than Henry.

 

Yeah, no. I don’t think you actually understand Henry’s speed. Sure, McNichols will be able to go side to side faster than Henry, but that’s it. He can’t do anything else. Henry is able to hit another gear that other running backs can’t hit. McNichols outside run goes for 2 yards. Henry’s goes for 18.

 

Henry clocked as the fastest RB recorded this year…. at 247 lbs of destruction. Cannot replace that.

 

On the bright side, passing game will gain strides as the monster recovers

 

Sure you can. McNichols is quicker, right? Right? Right?

 

it is a form of a stress fracture so technically - yes from excessive force being placed. Not “overuse” perse meaning that it would have just as likely occurred with less carries of equal lateral force being placed. Henry is such a big powerful guy just placed disproportionate force for his foot bone structure.

he’d have had to taken MULTIPLE consecutive games off at the first sign of tenderness to allow the stressed portions of the bone to ossify fully.

 

Yep. That's why the estimates that he may play in the playoffs are insane.

He may be off crutches walking around by then. No way he's making cuts at full speed at his size on a stress fracture.
