Blue Bombers Transactions - September 6, 2023

I just don't get this ongoing mystery with Grant. Everyone knows it's an ankle injury. Everyone knows it's not a minor injury after 7 weeks on IR. So what's the sense in the silence? Just tell the fans where we're at with respect to a kick returner and stop pissing everyone off. I don't accept the fact that this is just O'Shea's style. To me it looks like Grant will not be a factor in closing out the season so let's get on with it!

I'm pretty sure the plan is still at minimum to have Grant play the post-season.  He's the secret weapon, the difference maker.  My money is still on this outcome.  If he doesn't play another snap this season then he'll have to be considered kind of a bust, and possibly cause some "cut him" chatter in the off-season.  I wouldn't, but some might.

And his injury is still a mystery because: ankle what?  A little twist?  Sprain?  Break?  What is it?  How bad?  Many thought it was a little twist or sprain and he'd be fine after 2 weeks.  That was how many weeks ago?  At the very least we should be told if it is season-ending instead of these running-on-the-sidelines then extended-6-GIR silliness.

Well crap!

Now I am even more frustrated with Haba to the PR....

maybe haba isn't quite 100% and needs another week to get into game shape. His hamstring injury can be tricky. Jefferson had a similar issue and it kept flaring up after he returned. Need to err of the side of caution if that's what it is.
If not I am very disappointed with the move.

Maybe but he was reported as " full " participation last week and this week in practice. I'm not against caution in waiting for his recovery but they could have moved him to 1 game IR . In theory if he's injured you can't cut him and send him to PR.

So something is not right in this picture.
