Bunkley's injury was the one that scared me.

It was a "nothing" play where the OL guy was pushing Bunkley back standing up and while Bunkley was back-tracking, you could see him start to favor that leg.

You can still see his feet when the camera angle changes and he was walking gingerly. The next camera angle shows him on his knees on the ground waiting for trainers.

I immediately started thinking Achilles. But I doubt that now.

Yeah, I thought it was an achilles when it happened. We'll find out. Hopefully just a grade 1 or 2 strained gastro. If it is a full tear, he is probably done for the year.

The good news is Jenkins looked like he held his own for the most part yesterday in Bunkleys absence but it would be nice to have him more as depth.

That's what I thought. Achilles injury or calf. He didn't twist his ankle. Looked like he may have hyper extended which leads me to believe Achilles or calf. I wouldn't think you'd have a boot on for a calf injury.
