Veach: Fisher Projected as a Mid-August Return
This was from Veach's zoom presser this morning in response to Sam Mellinger following up on a previous response by Veach where he said Mahomes, Schwartz and Fisher were all expected back by August.
When asked, Veach referred again to his notes from Rick (Burkholder) that stated Fisher is projected as a "mid-August return". Veach then went on to clarify that there's obviously other variables that could impact that but as far as the information he had in front of him from Rick and the medical staff, mid-August is the projection. LINK (question is asked at 20:25 mark): https://fb.watch/3Z3FNr0fc7/ Now, Fisher will probably be put on PUP list to start the season but still, this is phenomenal news considering many were expecting Fisher to miss the 2021-22 season entirely. |

Carl-level offseason blunder.

Why doesn't anyone think Fisher will be healthy? Do you all remember Derrick Johnson? That dude ruptured his achilles in December and was back starting opening day and played 100% of the defensive snaps week 1 and 2 as a 35 year old. Fisher will only be 30 and probably heal faster than a 35 year old.

Hell Terrell Suggs tore one of his in 2012 and ruptured the other one a few years later in 2015. In 2012 he tore it in April and played just 5 months later and since then the advancements in the surgery and recovery have improved tremendously

Herniated disc's. Yeah.. extremely painful. Had to deal with that this fall. Was going to have it operated on but with the covid and the OR's shut down due to covid and restricted to emergencys only it kept getting put off. Finally last x-ray the Dr decided he didn't need to operate on it.

If the SB OL is what you’re worried about, why would you want to replace Fisher AND Schwartz in one offseason?
If anything, you should want to bring them back and add depth (some of which is already coming via opt outs). If we try to replace both T’s in one offseason, there’s a good possibility that our depth is even worse in 2021. |

If the team feels that Fisher and Schwartz are both going to be okay, then this is the best possible scenario.
LDT is an upgrade over Wylie. Both OT's are good to great. Alegretti was serviceable at LG. We need a Center. We need some depth. That's not so bad. Osemele maybe returns on a cheap deal. Niang. Rankin. It all looks a lot better with Fisher AND Schwartz. |

He'll be PUP'd to start the season to celebrate his newly restructured deal. (Or maybe that new IR designation? Whichever.)
Schwartz is an unknown at this point, which makes me understand what Clay is saying when he says cut them both. That said, I'd take those two coming off of injury if the Chiefs think they are full go than rookies or rookie/FA at those spots. |

A dislocated knee, turf toe and debateable concussion are already on Patrick’s body mileage. - Who has guaranteed Fisher returns to form and when? - Great that Schwartz looks to be back, but for how long? He was regressing pre-injury and backs are finicky. - Niang won’t have played football in almost two calendar years. You think he just slides in and will be great? - LDT: overrated and overpaid. A year removed from football. - Reiter likely walks in FA. It’s not panic, it is reality. The Chiefs have to build the line back up again for both the short term and the future. |
