Decastro's status

Torn MCL, dislocated knee cap, and damage To his patella tendon...if by damage to the tendon means tear, his season is over. If it means mild sprain, 8 to 10 weeks is possible. The ACL is completely intact, which could be a huge positive. If he returns midway through the season, next year won't just be another rookie year for him...

I'm hearing all sorts of things on him. So what's the latest? Is he coming back mid year or staying out the whole year?

I've been hearing that he'll be back around mid-season. That's just a guess though. No one knows for sure until he starts to heal up and then they'll go from there.

2 and a half months, meaning ten weeks, pray to have him by game nine, to start the second half of the schedule.

Why do you guys put so much importance on an unproven rookie?

Because any rookie is better than a vet when it comes to our offensive line.
