Not Your Christmas Ham

Apparently Brandon Meriweather should have had a sit-down with Chad Jackson. Both New England Patriots suffer from hamstring injuries. Jackson started last year on the physically-unable-to-perform list. And now our Miami Meriweather is not so merry, missing out on the three-day minicamp last week. The injury is not so severe as to keep him from working out, but Pats coaches are looking back on Jackson’s rushed return, deciding to take it easy with Meriweather. Preserving Meriweather is even more important now that the Pats may need to slot him for stubborn Samuel.

Meriweather’s ultra promising senior year with the Hurricanes has Belichick grimacing at what he might miss out on in this multi-position power unit. But what are you going to do? This is NFL football action we’re talking about here. Like Laurence Maroney said, “Injuries can affect anybody’s season…But one thing you got to do is just continue to work hard, because you really can’t worry about it. All you got to do is just work hard, get better, and try to get back out there.” Come on boys, throw on a little Bengay and get back in the gridiron. Don’t miss the fellas tear it up this season.
