0:29.1

Matthew Collar with you as always and first let's just get into the injury report real quick.

0:35.0

Christian Darisaw is listed as questionable.

0:38.5

He only participated in one full practice this week, so I would be a little surprised if he started against the lions

0:46.9

I think that maybe waiting one more week might be wise but they had this week to evaluate him he was back at practice but it

0:54.9

wasn't until Friday that he was really a full go but if they feel like he is

1:00.0

ready then they may put him out there. I think that caution is best when you have a player that has all pro potential in Christian Darisaw and also there's such a big domino effect to having someone like him

1:16.6

because you can leave him out on an island you don't have to have receivers

2:05.4

tells you that there has been improvement there and he's reliable and he's been with

2:10.9

Kirk cousins I mean healthy I mean almost for his entire time

2:14.8

Outside of those couple of games where Mason Cole played

2:18.2

But if it's not him then it's probably Austin Schlottman and at that point that is a it is a downgrade for sure going to

2:26.0

somebody who's barely played in the NFL versus a guy with a ton of experience who's been I would say solid this year in Garrett Bradbury so
