Rod Gilbert Rangers Jersey .Griffin was placed on injured reserve; if he is designated as the teams player to return, he could return to practice in six weeks, but he must miss a minimum of eight games. Browns coach Hue Jackson was asked if Griffin is done for the season.No, I think hell be designated for IR, Jackson said. Well get an opportunity to see where he is four weeks from now and go from there.Though surgery is not immediately required on the fractured coracoid bone, the team said Griffins shoulder will not be re-evaluated for three to four weeks. The earliest he could return would be Nov. 10 at Baltimore.Jackson said the team is hopeful surgery will not be needed at all.But I dont think well know until we get an opportunity to evaluate him again, Jackson said.Griffin will wait exactly four weeks before doctors are able to make more determinations about whether he will be able to play again this season, a source told ESPNs Jeff Darlington on Monday.The four-week checkup decides it all, a source said.Griffin posted his feelings on Twitter on Monday afternoon:Griffin hurt his left shoulder when he was tackled at the end of a run with 3 minutes, 41 seconds left and the Browns down 22-10 Sunday against the Eagles. Griffin scrambled from his end zone and took an angle toward the sidelines. Eagles cornerback?Jalen Mills drove into Browns tight end?Gary Barnidge, then bounced off Barnidge and wound up at the sideline right where Griffin was heading out of bounds.Griffin was criticized during his tenure with the Washington Redskins for not protecting himself, and Jackson had demanded he slide or go out of bounds in Cleveland. Jackson said Griffin was trying to go out of bounds on this particular play but the defender bounced off a block and wound up where Griffin was running.It wasnt as if he was trying to take on a defender during a scramble or anything like that, Jackson said. It was just very unfortunate. These things happen in football, and well move forward.Griffin said Sunday he did not see Mills and that he was trying to protect himself. Jackson said Mills was out of bounds on the tackle, but it seemed when he and Griffin first made contact that Mills was right on the edge of the sideline.I think [Griffin] was so close to the sideline that you would think you could run out and be OK, Jackson said. I dont think he saw the guy at all until the very last second.The hit was significant, and Griffin was checked on the sideline. At one point, trainers took Griffins helmet away, but he convinced the medical staff he could return. He went back for the final three plays of the game, handing the ball off three times.Griffin otherwise struggled in the opener, completing 12-of-26 for 190 yards with 0 touchdowns and 1 interception (on a tipped pass). The Browns had three drops and one bobbled catch, but 102 of Griffins yards came on two deep passes. On other throws, he was 10-for-24 for 88 yards.Griffins injury puts Josh McCown back on the field. The Browns kept the 37-year-old McCown for this insurance. Griffin has had injuries throughout his NFL career, and when he runs, the risk increases.Jackson said the Browns initially will go with the guys they have -- McCown and rookie Cody Kessler, with rookie Kevin Hogan of Stanford on the practice squad. Jackson quipped that his experience in Oakland in 2011, when he lost Jason Campbell taught him not to make a trade. That was the season the Raiders gave up first- and second-round picks for Carson Palmer, a trade that did not out well for them.Cleveland will face Baltimore in Week 2 on Sunday.McCown faced the Ravens twice last season, throwing for 457 yards in an overtime win in Baltimore and then completing 21-for-28 before breaking his collarbone in the infamous Kick Six game in Cleveland.I think you have to have quarterbacks on your football team that can play, Jackson said. Thats why we keep Josh here because he knows how to play and hes been in this league and understands our offense and what were trying to accomplish.Its unfortunate that this happened to Robert, but it is comforting to know that we have a guy that has played in NFL games and knows how to manage games and play the game and play within our system.Browns wide receiver Andrew Hawkins feels bad for Griffin but knows the team must move on.Super unfortunate. Its hard to take that fight out of an athlete that made his name being that type of competitor, he said of Griffin. Going forward we will have full confidence in what Josh brings to the table. Hes really been one of the leaders on our football team and we dont anticipate a drop-off.Information from ESPNs Josina Anderson was used in this report.

Ron Duguay Rangers Jersey . Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them off.

Much has changed since then as Virginia became a staple in the top 10, and the Cavaliers look for their best win of the season.I would say weve been tested, but tested against each other every day in practice, Virginia guard Darius Thompson said. We go against each other every day, battling against one of the better defenses in the country. I think our practices prepare us to play against anybody.Iowa (3-1) boasts the nations ninth-best scoring offense at 96.3 points per game. Guard Peter Jok has averaged 24 points per game so far this season, which leads the Big Ten, and the Hawkeyes have five players averaging at least seven points per contest.Jok needs just 31 points to reach the 1,000 mark for his career. The Hawkeyes will be without the services of senior Dale Jones, who suffered a fracture in his right wrist against Seton Hall. Jones is expected to miss eight to nine weeks of game action.Virginias perfect record of 4-0 will be put to the test against Fran McCafferys high-powered Iowa offense. The Cavaliers are ranked ffirst in the country in scoring defense this season as they allow just under 39 points per game.
Glenn Anderson Rangers Jersey. I havent really played against a good defense yet this year, Jok said. Offensively, we will be good as long as we move the ball. We have a lot of guys that can score but to be successful we have to play defense too and that starts with me.Freshmen have been needed, and thrived for both teams in the early going of the season. Iowa and Virginia both boasted highly-touted freshman in and forward Tyler Cook and guard Kyle Guy, respectively.Cook has tallied double-digits in his last three games and is averaging just a tad under 15 points per game to compliment Jok. In the Hawkeyes win over Seton Hall, Cook scored a career-high 24 points and will be a handful for Virginias frontcourt despite his lack of collegiate experience.Guy has also been impressive in the Cavaliers 4-0 start. Guys coming out party came Tuesday night against Grambling State where he came off of the bench to score a game-high 20 points, which included a 5-for-6 mark from the three-point line.Virginias guards could be a matchup problem for Iowa, which has yet to face a superior opponent like the Cavaliers thus far this season.The winner of Fridays semifinal matchup will move on to Saturdays championship game against the winner of the Memphis-Providence game on Friday.
