Doesn't Sound Like Barron Will Play
Posted by jellis at 8/19/2010 3:41 PM CDT on truebluefanclub.com
Practice hasn't yet rolled around on this Thursday afternoon, so something could happen to change the outlook, but we're hearing swing tackle Alex Barron won't be able to play on Saturday at San Diego.
The starter, presumably, will be Robert Brewster, filling in for Marc Colombo and Barron, the Plan A backup. Another second-teamer will be starting on the offensive line, Montrae Holland. Wade Phillips had suggested on Wednesday that Barron was beginning to feel better, and upped his playing possibilities from doubtful to 50-50.
Rookie Sam Young will likely take over for Brewster at some point. Brewster could possibly move over to left tackle with the second team, a position he has played this preseason.
Barron is indeed getting closer, and should be able to play next week at Houston.
