Prospect Injuries

During this past week (Senior Bowl practice week), a number of players sustained injuries which will likely prevent them from playing substantially (if at all) in this Saturday's Senior Bowl game:

Early Doucet, WR, LSU (pulled hamstring)
Limas Sweed, WR, Texas (wrist)
Shawn Crable, LB, Michigan (lower leg/back)
Jamar Adams, S, Michigan (Achilles heel)
Owen Schmitt, FB, West Virginia (knee)
Kirk Barton, OT, Ohio State (back)

Furthermore, though he is not participating in the Senior Bowl, Wisconsin CB Jack Ikegwuonu (an early entrant) suffered a tear of his ACL while engaging in his own pre-Draft training. The tear, which will be operated on within the next two weeks, is a setback to the former Badger standout's 2008 Draft prospects, and may ultimately result in placement on the "PUP" list to begin the 2008 NFL season.
