i've been worried about Banks all day, good news for sure. we've been healthy this year, team of destiny. I don't believe in knocking on wood, I'm not important enough to jinx anything, so I won't. Rest up Aaron!

It was driving me crazy the announcers didn't notice we had a new LG in the game.

HOW COULD YOU NOT SEE THAT?

Glad he's alright. Anytime I hear bicep I fear the worst.

Thank the football gods and zeus. If he needs to rest next week take it off. We need him for the playoffs

Collinsworth briefly mentioned it but there was no elaboration or mention of effects it had on the o-line. No love for Banks on the national stage - yet. To be fair, there wasn't a timeout for his injury so almost no one noticed it.

They should have him skip the next start, would rather be safe than sorry.

If you ever want proof that PFF grades can sometimes be completely off base, look no further than Banks. Consistently grades poorly—but my eyes tell me different whenever I focus on him during games.

YAC is conflicted with this statement.

They see as well as the officials see an obvious Bosa holding.

how'd it go from a Bicep to shoulder strain lol.... wtf do they need a real G like me as a Doctor lol

The long head of the bicep (the upper that Kyle referred to) inserts at the top of the shoulder. It can tear completely loose without resulting in the classical Popeye deformity or any bruising...which could contribute the 'in the moment' misdiagnosis. That kind of injury also can/does result in some pain in the shoulder. (been down that road with both my biceps)

Agree, good stuff. Hopeful he'll be back soon. Strain is better than a tear in any book I have.
