Jon Beason is out of his boot and saying he's feeling "a whole lot better." Will visit specialist tomorrow, but not ruling out playing on Sunday. We shall see. That would be a tremendously lucky break for a team who was certain this was a long-term problem. & #8234;#& #8206;nyg& #8236; & #8234;#& #8206;giants& #8236; & #8234;#& #8206;NFL& #8236;


This is great news

Even if he can't go this week, he may not be out long. HUGE drop off in LB talent/play when he's out.
It

is a big drop off, which is a problem. He is talented, but oft injured. LB is another of many units on this team where Reese has not provided adequate depth and talent.
Hope he is back

ASAP but would really like to see Devon Kennard get a shot at the MLB spot. Maybe wishful thinking but think this guy could be a real find and fill that spot for years.
We need him for the season

not just for this week. Gotta think long term health, Beason.
Reese

He drated a decent one last year - Kennard, but IMO we need another outside LB with speed and ability to cover and tackle. JILL does not do it for me.
J. Williams...

He might as well

b e JILL.
Beason's figured out the veteran's angle  
fbdad : 9/18/2014 3:55 pm : link
Sign a big contract
Don't practice in pre-season or during the week
Play on Sunday
as long as he plays and plays well o Sunday's  
BLUATHRT : 9/18/2014 3:59 pm : link
I don't think anyone cares about practice...right, AI?
Burress made it an art form  
gtt350 : 9/18/2014 4:09 pm : link

Sounds like he will play  
oldutican : 9/18/2014 5:36 pm : link
hobbled the rest of the season.
All of this just to keep Herzlich off the field

SMH.
If its just scar tissue

This is actually good news and it means his toe will actually feel better

Think you have hit the nail on the head. These guys want the $$$ in thier second contract but do not want to practice and play at the level they did in the early years. You see it all over the league. They want the money not the life. Thats why you need a GM who can tell the difference. Reese is not that guy.
congrats

on uncovering the conspiracy
big fan of Beason.  
Fish : 9/18/2014 6:46 pm : link
But we are 0-2 with our best player playing. What's the downside if he doesn't?
Watch  
Canton : 9/18/2014 7:00 pm : link
We see all this talk that he's feeling better and could very well play Sunday..

He sees the Specialist and he's out for the season.

LOL


only with the Giants..

last first round pick on a linebacker was Carl Banks. I think that worked out.
I'm not taking much from this  
illmatic : 9/18/2014 7:22 pm : link
Of course he wants to go out there and play and he's going to say he wants to or that he will. I'll wait to see what the doctors say about it.
With that foot,  
Doomster : 9/18/2014 10:10 pm : link
he has not been the "force" he was last year.....

He obviously came back too early......Probably should take this game off, and try and get ready for the 'Skins, since it's a more important, division game....

With him out, this linebacking group looks pathetic again.....McClain is too slow for MLB.....JW can't live up to his hype.....Kennard is a 5th round draft pick with a hammy....Paysinger and Herz? Good grief, Charlie Brown....

Beason Foot  
Percy : 9/18/2014 10:17 pm : link
That whole stuff about "toeing it" instead of being able to play off the ball of his foot sounds pretty bad to me. That is, that he can't possibly be effective that way, can he?
The problem playing Herzlich at MLB is that  
Jimmy Googs : 9/18/2014 10:18 pm : link
he sucks at it...

Beason out

Herzlich and Brown are going to kill us. Beason can't be relied upon anymore with so many foot and ACL injuries.
