00:00two big injuries on the offensive line uh you know the guard had a boot in a cane

00:06after the game will campbell uh goes to the tent he's taken off in a cart uh

00:12so campbell especially that can't be good so well i watched him fred walk out of the stadium

00:21you know with a black brace uh it was it looked to me like a full leg brace but you know it's a

00:28knee brace but it was almost from his you know thigh down to the shin area watched his facial

00:35expression and and uh you as you would expect he was upset uh what to read into that i i don't want

00:45to be an alarmist i would just defer to what mike rabel said within the last hour in one of his

00:50interviews uh he said he obviously doesn't expect will to play in this upcoming game monday night

00:56he said that injury is going to probably be more than a week or two like waiting on tests usually

01:04in these situations they go through mris on a monday to get more information and that's where

01:10we are right now because as you know when they go to that blue tent they can tell that something's

01:19torn in the knee like an mri tells you what's torn and to what degree but you know that's why they

01:27take you off in a cart is with the knee with the knee not with other things but with the knee they

01:34can move it around that's that's how they know at least in my experience with athletes that i've done

01:40with they can they they can feel the knee moving around and that's why the player is so dejected when

01:46they're leaving is because generally they know something's torn in the knee well so and fred i

01:53think on this one let let's and i tend to do this i think worst case scenario which i think a lot of

02:01us are sort of programmed to do there's a possibility that it is uh and mike rabel mentioned this on the on

02:08the and his interview go ahead the radio yes he's okay the radio they don't do a good job but go ahead

02:13he he was asked about is it possible this is just a sprain and he said well the thing you have to

02:20understand and i'm paraphrasing him is a sprain or a strain can have differing levels of severity so

02:28there is a possibility here that nothing is torn and that it is just a significant sprain or strain

02:35and i think based on what we saw with the cart what i saw with the brace and his facial expression

02:41if that's the case that would be the best case scenario and

02:45and
