It's even tougher when you release veterans such as Hugh and Jon. They have contributed a great deal to the success of this team over the past few years and we appreciate their efforts on and off the field.
It really knotted up on him. We tried to get it out of there, but we were not as successful as we wanted to be. We'll let him rest and see what he can do (today).
We have had success getting guys through here with this injury, ... I know it's magnified when it's your quarterback or a player of his magnitude. I understand how it becomes magnified, but we have a track record of being able to manage that injury, and we will see if we can't do the same. If he can't function at some point, we'll shut him down.
We probably could have run a little bit more, period. We didn't have a lot of success early with it and then when we got behind, it snowballed from there.
After our success in the summer, we were kind of overconfident coming in here. It was a wake-up call, a reality check.
Garcia is a guy who's had a lot of success in the National Football League. He knows how to win football games and he's been to the Pro Bowl multiple times. He's a very smart player and is very familiar with our offensive system. He'll be a great backup to Donovan.
When all is said and done, people really don't care whether you ran or threw the ball. They care about winning and losing. We're going to try to do what's working for us and do the best way can.
We understand it's never as good as you think and never as bad as you think in this league. Mike Nolan's putting together a football team right now, working his tail off to get that thing right. He's got a bright future ahead of him.
I've said that from the beginning. Both of them are good people.
Is it going to bug him here for a little bit? ... Yes, probably. Will the bye week (after the Dallas game) help? Probably. But I can't tell you that this far in advance. Donovan's a pretty straightforward guy. Certain guys, you can talk to about (injuries) and they will tell you what's up and if they can go or not go. Donovan's one of those guys.
First thing is, he is a great kid. He worked so hard in the offseason to get that thing back and he came (into camp) in phenomenal shape. We were looking forward to getting him back in there and for that to happen, your heart just goes out to the guy.
There's quite a separation between the ligaments, almost to the point where there was a dislocation of the ankle,
Right now, they're calling it an abdominal strain.
right now they are calling it an abdominal strain... That's what it is right now.
