Any news on Chris Kuper?

[Italianmobstr7]

Just wondering if anyone has an update on Kuper. He left the game with a hand injury and didn't return.

[drewloc]

According to Woody Paige, he has a broken hand and is out for the season. :tsk:

All aboard the injury train...

[LordTrychon]

Kuper's dad disagrees. According to Chris, he doesn't require surgery and expects to play.

Isn't it one of the Giants OLineman who is playing with a cast on each hand for broken bones?

[LRtagger]

for those that don't have O-mane accounts. . . . ;)



Just talked to Chris..the bone he broke was the index metacarpal on his left hand...in two places. He doesn't need surgery so he will be playing hopefully through the SB.


my adoptee is a tough mofo, he'll be out there. . . .

as usual, woody paige doesn't know shit. . . .

Wouldn't be suprised.......................at least it would make it harder to called for holding ;)

[elsid13]

And for that questioning it, yes it actually Kuper's Dad and one point with had Myers' father also posting on them mane. But he moved on since Chris went to Houston.

IMO the injury will limit his ability to deliver a punch and make holding (which all linement do) impossible.

It's a credit to himself and his upbringing that he wants to tough it out and play.

Kupesdad actually said that Chris liked having the club on his hand at the begin of the year. Give him an extra advantage.

We used to have Paul Ernster's dad logging on at the Freak. :D

No, they have broken bones in their heads.

That's why you can get them to play on the offensive line . . .

They have had more injuries than legs at running back. They have had wounded knees at linebacker, hurt groins at cornerback and injured ankles at safety.

For the first time, the Broncos have an injury issue within their vaunted offensive line. Right guard Chris Kuper was wearing a large cast on his broken left hand Monday. The cast covered the index and middle fingers while leaving his ring finger and pinky free.

Kuper, who started the final 11 games of last season at left guard and first 14 this year at right guard, played with a broken right hand during training camp and the preseason as he wore a heavy bandage.

Broken bones, however, do not necessarily break the same.

"I'm going to see the doctor right now," Kuper said.

There is hope Kuper can play Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, but should he need some time to heal, the Broncos would like to use rookie Kory Lichtensteiger at right guard. Although he has blocked on special-teams units and occasionally at fullback on goal-line situations, Lichtensteiger received his "welcome to the NFL" moment Sunday at Carolina. With the Broncos down 30-10 in the fourth quarter, Lichtensteiger got beat on his first play by Carolina defensive lineman Charles Johnson, who went on to sack quarterback Jay Cutler.

"It's tough to put a guy in there for his first play in the National Football League in a passing situation," Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said.

i like kuper, he looks like he could be brock lesnars brother.

hope he returns quickly.

His father stated on Mane he IS playing Sunday and will have surgery on Monday. Kuper wants to wrap up the division then get ready for the playoffs.

What a beast

[pnbronco]

I thought he was the one that had a cast on at Training Camp, it looked like a club.

They both started out over at Mania if I remember correctly.

Would you say that if Ryan Clady was in hearing distance? :ahhhhh:

It depends on the break. If it can be stabilized with a cast they can play.

:laugh: Clady would probably nod in agreement.

I believe it was Hamilton who once said that offensive linemen weren't all
there upstairs and that is why you could get them to play on the O-line.
