Okada's Practice Return Offers Hope
28 Nov
Summary
- Okada participated in limited practice on Thursday.
- Coach mentioned Okada as a potential IR candidate.
- This participation suggests his oblique injury may not be severe.
Safety Okada's participation in a limited capacity during Thursday's practice has provided a glimmer of hope regarding his injury status. This development is somewhat unexpected, given earlier statements from head coach Mike Macdonald. Macdonald had noted on Monday that Okada was being considered for the injured reserve list due to an oblique issue.
The fact that Okada was able to practice, even with limitations, suggests that his injury may not be as severe as initially assessed. This is a positive indicator for the player and the team as they approach their upcoming game.
More clarity on Okada's availability for Sunday's matchup against Minnesota is anticipated following Friday's practice session. The team will be monitoring his condition closely to determine his readiness for the game.
