Tario Fuller

[32zone]

He’s been out since 9/23 and for the past several weeks he’s been in uniform, gone thru pregame warmups, and Brohm has made comments that he’s hopeful Tario will be ready to go. And he’s yet to play. Very odd situation.

Bone bruises don’t heal quickly. If he can’t loosen up pregame, then he shouldn’t play

Don't be surprised if he is ready this week even though he said otherwise. Hopeful he is. Brohm might be conducting the NFL version of you'll know when you have to report availability. Having another quality option with Sparks would be good to have keep defenses off balance.

Unless I’m completely wrong, I thought I read last week where Brohm said it was doubtful he’ll return this season

I thought that was Grant Herrmans and his knee that Brohm was referring to.

Bone bruises take a long time to heal and they can be extremely painful.

any ideas on why Lankford-Johnson hasn't been playing? thanks

Just a guess about his lack of playing time but when I watch him run he doesn't seem to like contact very much. Great speed but its pretty obvious he doesn't like getting hit.

Yeah - he confirmed that Herrmans is done, but I'm pretty sure he said something about Fuller being done as well.

It sounds like they gave Fuller a final chance against Nebraska but wasn't able to go - I think at that point everyone agreed to shut him down. I might be mis-remembering the whole thing...

BLJ at WR, you wonder if that has been worked on in practice, he is known for having some wheels, why not put him there even as a decoy, even if he doesn’t like to get hit, problem solved, catch the ball, turn on the afterburners take it to the House! We need so much help at WR it’s scary.

With all due respect to BJL, though he is fast, he isn't the runner that Knox, Jones, and Fuller are. Significant difference, in my opinion, in how the other 3 find the holes and get through them. Would love to see Fuller back in action as he seemed like a guy we could start to rely on to take over a game, in some respect, due to his versatility.
