Baltimore Ravens‏

Statement from Ozzie Newsome: "In unfortunate news, Dennis Pitta re-injured his hip at today’s OTA session."

Plus I think they lost a starting corner to a torn ACL earlier this week.

Not really lol, but I think all the teams' news threads are lols at this point.

I think it's bad karma to put injuries in the "lol" threads. Jinx!

 Fear is Ravens TE Dennis Pitta fractured and dislocated his hip for third time in four years. If so, NFL career likely would be over.

Gat dayum.  Dude has Pennington hip.  Noodle hip.

He should have retired after the second time he's nuts.

I'm surprised he was able to come back.

Yeah agree, I guess it was his call. I still think it was nuts, the players really have to think in future terms. He will be lucky if he walks without a cane in ten years. I would bet my left nut he will use one.

 Incredible. More awful #Ravens news: Rookie G Nico Siragusa tore his ACL, MCL and PCL while running with the 1st team today, sources said.

Good Lord, the Ravens are getting crushed with injuries.

Damn.

Here are the players the Ravens have lost due to injury, suspension or retirement since June 1:

Tavon Young, a starter last season and a promising nickelback, tore his ACL on June 1;

Dennis Pitta, who led all NFL tight ends with 86 catches last season, suffered a likely career-ending hip injury June 2;

Darren Waller, a special-teams standout and a backup tight end, was suspended for the season June 30 for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy;

Kenneth Dixon, the team's most elusive running back, hurt his knee while training at Louisiana Tech and underwent season-ending surgery July 25;

John Urschel, who was competing for the starting center job, retired a couple hours before the first practice of training camp July 27;

Crockett Gillmore, who was battling for a starting tight end spot, sustained a season-ending knee injury July 28;

Nico Siragusa, a rookie fourth-round pick, tore his ACL, PCL and MCL on Aug. 1 after getting caught in a pile during a running play in camp;

Lewis, who started eight games as a rookie last season, tore his labrum in his shoulder and decided Friday to undergo surgery after it didn't respond to treatment;

White, an undrafted rookie who started Thursday as well as served as the primary returner, hurt his thumb in the preseason opener.

Amazingly there's no lolravens thread. Stupid franchise with their competent management and high quality coaching.

Anyway, Marshall Yanda is going to announce his retirement. I don't know if they have a replacement in the wings, but if not then there's another player in the FA market who will probably be able to take their pick of whoever they want ahead of comedy outfits like us.
