Austin Collie Update 10/2

In the last few days, Austin Collie has worked out for both the Tennessee Titans and the San Diego Chargers. I think the Chargers would be preferable for Collie, but I think he's in a situation where he'll sign anyone that offers him a shot.

Like the Pats? :evil:



Great news for collie, even if the fans don't want him there. I just read through their forum and didn't see one person who was genuinely glad that they have him signed.

The best news is just the fact that with the Pats he will actually get to play. The Pats don't just need depth--they have 6 of their 8 receivers on the injury report at some level. They need someone that can actually produce. This is the best scenario I could imagine for Collie--not only playing with a top-tier ball-delivery QB, but on a team where he will see meaningful reps on a consistent basis to help him move past his injury issues and set the table for a long term contract after this season without the "damaged goods" discount.

I think I read that he left the game in the 2nd Q with a knee injury. Did anyone see what happen? Is it the same knee as last year?

I didn't see him leave with the injury, but I noticed he never played again in the 2nd half.

Heard he hurt his knee. I have no details except someone fell on him from behind.
