Roydell Williams "Going to Have to Work Uphill"
In case you didn't know, Mike Heimerdinger doesn't play around. Roydell Williams, who broke his ankle in practice the week before the playoff game last season, still isn't able to participate in practice. Heimerdinger obviously doesn't care what Roydell did last season:
"I don't know anything about him,'' Heimerdinger said. "I've done with Roydell what I do with everybody and that's not to make up my mind until I see them. I don't know what all those guys were asked to do last year or how they were asked to run routes or any of the things Roydell has done. I know he has been successful and done some things, but until I see him and see what he does, I am not going to make up my mind on Roydell at all.''
I know Heimerdinger is a tough guy, but I still think Roydell will be given a little different consideration when he is able to come back from his injury for 2 reasons:
- He had a really good season last year
- He isn't on the field because of an injury
Accoring to Fisher, Roydell is doing everything he needs to be doing to get back on the field as soon as possible:
"It is frustrating,'' Coach Jeff Fisher said. "But his injury was significant; his surgery was significant. We knew it was going to take some time. No one has panicked. Roydell knows what to do and he is working hard. When he is ready he'll be right back where he was.''
Mel Kiper called Roydell one of the best picks of the 2005 draft. Last season he really started to live up to that billing. Hopefully he can get back on the field soon and continue his progression.

Eagles fan here
Just saw he got a DUI the other day.
All I have to say is: welcome to the freak philly had the past 2 years.
The last year he was especially; he was caught partying all the time instead of getting ready for football season… it definitely showed on the field, glad he’s gone!. Hopefully you guys can get him back to his old ways but he doesn’t seem like he’s on track…whats a 30 year old doing at a college anyway—what a bum!

We have a thread about the DUI
so not sure why you posted here. The fact that he was arrested by the Vandy police does not mean he was doing anything at Vandy. He just happened to be driving past the school down West End.

Vandy cops regularly patrol and pull over people all over the West End area
not sure how it works out legally, but they pop ‘em all the same.

Titans fan here.
I appreciate your Trolling and looking for something negative to post about Kearse! Make sure you stop back by and post when he has double digit sacks this year. Maybe you can call it the Welcome to the freak that philly couldnt produce.
Freakin Iggles fan! Philly ruined this mans carrer! The scheme up there SUCKS!
Typical Hater!
Someone once said "Vince Young bleeds two toned blue!" But I disagree, because The Great One Doesnt Bleed!!

I have news for you dumbass kearse, not the scheme. his pal trent cole flourished in our “shit scheme” last year while freak spent the entire off season partying. You will see, freak will be lucky to get 3 sacks this year.

Wow.
Ignoring that this was the wrong post to comment , let me respond to your post.
It’s called “reading comprehension.” The news article said “near” Vanderbilt campus, not “on” Vanderbilt campus.
Since Vandy sits on about 5 square miles of land right next to downtown and borders several major streets, you can be practically anywhere in the western half of the county and be “near” Vanderbilt campus.

Why is an Eagles fan posting about Roydell?
And when did Roydell get a DUI?
“Just saw he got a DUI the other day”
I guess the rumor about Eagle fans not being able to read is true.

I guess the stereotype about the south being dumb as SHIT is spot on!

Play-calling was terrible.
So that excuse works for you, but it won’t work for Jevon?
Nice logic there.
And our playoff record in the AFC does not really have anything to do with the ass-pounding we put on you in your house.

So it is better to not make the playoffs than lose in the 1st round?

Did the Eagles not even make the playoffs
Oh my gosh—did he just talk trash about the playoffs when they did not even make the playoffs??
I didn’t even look it up—He was an idiot long before he made that comment, but that is awesome.
Best comment ever.

Seriously, They Didn't!
That makes that the all-time best post on the blog, IMO.
All time best.
You come to our house, and talk trash about us losing in the first round of the playoffs and your team didn’t even make the playoffs!!!!!!!
Best ever!

Hey Jody
What’s your IQ? Did you ever take the ACT? Because I guarantee you I’m more intelligent than you according to any measurable means.

I do remember Travis Henry with his packing tape wrapped around his waste going for about 75 on one play though.

As I was saying... Heimerdinger obviously likes Biren Ealy. Just as obviously,
...he likes Justin Gage and Justin McCareins. And Lavelle Hawkins seems to be doing well, not to mention that you’d NEVER cut a 4th round draft pick that soon. Even Rheiny wouldn’t do that. So, if you figure that the team will keep six WRs-or perhaps five and C. Johnson-then essentially, Roydell is fighting for a roster spot with M. Williams.
The rest are TOAST!

Did you boot him, Jimmy, or did he leave when he realized he made the bonehead call of the year?

i hope roydell recovers fully from his injury
he was dependable last year….
we can’t watch practices, so players earn respect from the fans on the field, and last year only 2 WR’s warranted any respect….gage and roydell….
i don’t care if dinger doesn’t want to play him initially after he returns from his injury, I just don’t want to see Fisher allow him to be cut…..
i guess what I’m saying is the up hill climb better be for playing time, not a roster spot….
by zackmann on Jun 23, 2008 10:47 PM CDT 0 recs
I agree
They aren’t going to cut him.

I think you might be disappointed thjis time, Jimmy.
This has “injury settlement” or Injured Reserve written all over it.
