Garcia Hurt
By Aaron Nagler on Jul 31, 2008 with 6 Comments
Tampa Bay Buccaneer starting quarterback Jeff Garcia was hurt and taken off the field on a cart this morning. And the phone in Ted Thompson’s office just rang…
UPDATE: According to PewterReport.com, it is listed as a calf strain.

I wouldn’t wish injury on anyone but it would be really convenient of Garcia was done for the year. Way too convenient.
Sounds like he just pulled a hammie. Crap.
PRC – Perhaps the Packers offered Garcia the money Favre turned down…
As much as I want Favre to just sit down and shut up, I’d rather he get traded to Tampa than Minnesota. This would have been a nice way to up Favre’s trade value. Too bad I don’t think he’d agree no matter what.
Agreed PackerBelle, but if the Pack can get a legit offer from the Bucs,Favre blessing or no,(remember, Gruden traded for a retired QB who didn’t want to report last year in Plummer) it would help drive up the price the Vikings need to offer, without question.
“sounds like he just pulled a hammie”
Well everything I have read says injured during non contact throwing drill when he was rolling out. Most articles just say the “right leg” but a couple specify that it looked like his lower leg possibly a “calf” injury. It could just be a strained calf or it could be much more serious. Likely its just a couple day injury. We’ll likely know in a few hours…
