Foster left practice today with a hamstring injury. No update so far on the extent of the injury.

Here comes the injuries that many predicted would occur with no off season practices and OTA's.....

Some will be minor and some will be serious, but obviously any injury to a high profile player is worth watching.

Rotowire has it up on their site, but that was not where I got it.

We don't want to know where you got it. Just keep being cryptic and enjoy yourself.

Honestly, I was just trying to create conversation on the fact that it looks like this training camp/preseason is going to be like no other in the past because of the high probability of injuries occurring. However minor or serious the injury, Foster is the highest profile player to get injured so far.

Nelson's point about the lockout creating the potential for more injuries is definitely spot on. It's really unfortunate that both sides completely ignored the quality of play issue when failing to generate a sense of urgency to end the lockout until the last possible minute. We've seen numerous examples of players who hold out of training camp (especially RBs) and then suffer early season injuries. Well we basically have the entire league that had a holdout so there's no question we could see far more injuries than we've ever seen before.

Hopefully, the Foster injury doesn't prove to be serious. The last thing fantasy players need is for the No. 1 player this year to be sidelined because of something that never should have happened in the first place.
