Can't find anything on it. Hope that means it's not serious; I feel Deshea is underrated as a corner.

i don't know that he is an underrated as a corner..

BUT i do think his value to this team is seriously underrated.. when he was resigned some ppl raised a stink about it, but in the end i think that extension will be one of most valuable signings we've made in the last bunch of years..

hopefully he is just fine..

i imagine he was thinking more of veteran leadership when it comes to the team.

Last I looked, he plays corner. He isn't a tight end, or a tackle, or a fullback. If he's underrated, he's underrated as a corner.

They don't list "veteran leader" on the stat sheet.

There's no doubt he's underrated. The team has been trying to replace him for years. Coke hasn't beat him yet, McFadden hasn't beat him yet. And didn't he play behind the duo of Scott and Washington? Poor bastard. He must have been wondering which way was up back in those days.

Yeah, him and Jason Simmons, the guy who's been the starting safety for the Texans, just tore up his ACL IIRC.

Maybe having to watch Charred and DuhhhhWayne for all those years helped turn him into the wily vet he is today, huh?

I haven't heard any injuries reported for the team. If anyone happens to catch Tomlin's conference in an hour... please post an update.

Nothing serious...

Deshea and Clint are the only two dings of note (of course we know Ben had a ding too with his ribs and ankle, but I guess OK)

Tomlin also said that starting cornerback Deshea Townsend's groin injury might keep him out of a few practices this week. He said backup linebacker Clint Kriewaldt has a minor shoulder injury. Neither is expected to miss Sunday's game against Buffalo in Heinz Field.
