MisChief-Maker 135 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 He missed the early part of practice. I haven't seen any reports that suggest he's not practicing at all today but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANATIC 852 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Eric Berry did not practice today. His foot has been bothering him, calf area specifically, per Andy Reid. 11:09 AM - 28 Dec 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANATIC 852 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Lower Leg Pain - Cool Running www.coolrunning.com › training › injury prevention Jump to Achilles Tendinitis - Pain in the lower calf along the Achilles tendon, the cord connecting the heel to the calf muscle. ... If you feel some serious pain and maybe some swelling, you've got Achillestendinitis. Likely causes: Your tendon is being pulled, and because tendons don't much like to stretch, you feel a lot of pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NChiefsCorner 496 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Seems like we started losing when all the talk switched to if Berry is playing, all the talk should be about this team, because Berry had nothing to do with getting this team to where we are right now other than being a cheerleader.

NChiefsCorner 496 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Just now, liquidfriend said: They need to just IR him already I agree, the fact that you would bring him in for just half a game is stupid, if he can't play the entire game put him on IR.

FANATIC 852 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Contracts of disabled players should not count against the cap. The union should be all over this. The current rule may keep teams from paying top dollar in fear of injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s done folks These huge contracts are not worth it. Look at Seattle and GB after they paid their QBs. Never even sniffed a SB as of late. This is the window now for KC bc once Mahomes gets his $ this roster quite possibly will get depleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefsFoolFan 149 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Guys, I’ve been saying it time & time again...... i’ve had the same injury as EB. A ruptured Achilles often times recurs after the initial injury. i have ruptured mine 6 times. He’s going to have this recur whenever he runs for extended periods of time.

We started losing when Kareem Hunt got the boot and Sammy Watkins got injured combined with playing some really good teams. Berry has been a huge upgrade in the limited snaps he's taken.

Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Who knows if it means anything or not, but it fits the story I was told that Eric Berry is the one completely dictating terms of his ability to play at this point. And honestly I reached the conclusion during Seattle game there's not much hope for this defense in 2018. We've just gotta go into the Oakland game with a plan to score 40 plus points if we want to feel good about winning. If the defense does show up (as they have a few random times), it should be a surprise to everyone, including Andy Reid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berry dont want to play he dont have to.. I wish him well but not in a Red uniform sucking up multi millions of cap space..

SEMO 6,812 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Just retire already. I’m done with this. If he plays, he plays. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,714 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 He has bone spurs that are rubbing against the other Achilles if my memory serves. He needs surgery to remove the bone spurs. Great player, Great person...I hope he follows his heart. Once you retire from the NFL, it's really hard to come back at all. If he wants to keep playing, he has earned that right. w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really have serious doubts about their medical staff. Not sure how it works but maybe they need to look at an injury settlement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,714 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 That is a great question. I do not have the specifics other than they thought he could play thru the pain. IMO the Chiefs deferred to Berry and let him make the call. Say what you want about Hunt, he does support the players. He even gave Kareem Hunt the benefit of the doubt until that video emerged and proved Kareem was less than truthful. Hunt/The Chiefs have given Tyreek a second chance, and that is paying off. IMO, Hunt' s greatest weakness is his loyalty. Hence the Bob Sutton conversations... w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefswinitall 60 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 They questions is why didn't he get surgery this offseason on those stupid spurs. If Berry refused then he should be 'fired' and terminate his pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berry's situation is so unique that he does clearly get special treatment. Just gotta hope he wants to play on Sunday I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
