AKA as the last one.
Back injuries for DL are a real problem. "Back spasms" usually means some kind of back strain. Well, that's normally an injury you can't just "rehab" away. It takes rest and treatment to recover.1. Jared Crick, DE
Jared Crick (6-4, 285 pounds) was carted off the practice field on Monday but coach Vance Joseph said the defensive end may have just been suffering from back spasms. Crick will undergo an MRI and the team will know more about his status in the coming days. Once healthy, Crick will continue competing with Zach Kerr for a starting job across from Derek Wolfe.
As for Jake Butt, he has missed all of the pre-season. If he was a 5 year veteran it probably wouldn't matter. They'd just throw him in there when he recovered and his only problem would be being in football shape game 3 or something.
But, as a rookie, he has no chance to make an impact his rookie season since he missed the entire pre-season. So, they just red-shirt him on IR and let him get ready for training camp next year.
