Another Injury...Cato June Breaks Forearm

by Mike Kerns on Aug 20, 2009 11:00 AM CDT in News Comment 17 comments

No solid link yet, but Adam Clanton is reporting in on Sports Radio 610 that Cato June left the field with a broken forearm. One of our deepest postions going into camp is now starting to look a little weak.

yikes

Not a killer injury, but June would have been a good veteran LB backup.

Still leaves us with:
Cushing
Ryans
Adibi (depending on his injury)
Diles
Bentley
and now it looks like Buster Davis has a chance to make the squad.

Yeah, I really would have liked to have had Cato June here though. I would imagine he flat out gets waived now.

Kuharsky was on 610 this morning

…and he specifically called out Buster Davis (he didn’t know his name, just his number 58) as a guy who impressed him.

It will happen

Dont forget

Khary Campbell. He may just be another camp body but you never know.

Pffft. Yeah right.

No such thing as a good injury to one of the Texans, but...

this one does not hurt much. If we PUP Cato, he will still be able to mentor the young guys, which was going to be his primary role anyway. Would be nice to have him as a backup, and if the fracture is not too severe, he may be back after the first 3-4 games.

Maybe he has an interest in coaching

I always saw him as a guy who seemed to always know where to be, and had the quickness to get there. Seems to me he will be a good teacher either here or somewhere else.

Can't he just go out there with a big cast and destroy people with it?

from the article

June said on his Twitter page he will undergo surgery later today to have a plate inserted in his forearm.

Generally, if it was just a break, then it would be possible (I played with a broken wrist one year). With the surgery and the plate, I think it would be more difficult.

Must’ve been a nasty break. /shudders/
