00:00Every week, Lamar is on the injury report with a new injury.

00:05This is an odd one here.

00:07It's why we're lucky to have you, you know, help us out.

00:10Though, I don't know how you guys can figure this one out

00:13because I can't imagine you're seeing on film a random toe injury,

00:17a random knee injury.

00:19Well, we do look and we do check it out.

00:22And that's what we have the team from the War Room at Sports Injury Central,

00:25which I'll be back for in San Diego for Sunday.

00:28But, no, you're right.

00:30We don't see anything.

00:30Yes, it's been, quote, head, shoulders, knees, and toes for Lamar Jackson.

00:36Every week, a different injury.

00:37But you know what that is?

00:39It's called vet rest.

00:41He always has been resting the first practice of the week, the Wednesday practice.

00:45This week's Wednesday practice was on Monday, okay?

00:48He rests the first day, vet rest, and then returns to play.

00:52That's been the practice pattern.

00:54I don't know why they don't just put it as vet rest.

00:56It's week 13.

00:57There isn't a quarterback or player in the league that's not dealing with something, right?

01:03And this is why you have five athletic trainers, two physical therapists,

01:07and three team doctors on every road trip, okay?

01:10But they're just reporting it as that instead of vet rest.

01:13So I don't make too much of Lamar Jackson's health situation.

01:18Okay.
