"I'll be fine," Bennett said. "It's just a little sore. No big deal. I'll play" against Seattle in the preseason finale on Thursday.

McKinnie also said his knee should be fine, although he said he wouldn't be surprised if he is held out against the Seahawks for precautionary reasons.

Looks that its not to bad, sure gave me a scare for awhile. I dont know if they had MRI's but this is all i could find concerning there injuries this morning.

Lets hope it's not too bad. I don't know that Bennett should play against Seattle though. I think they should both be held as McKinnie said he might be.

That is good to know I have been worried about that since I saw them go down last night. Lets just hope that the MRI's don't show any surprises. We need those boys!!!!!!!

THANK GOD ... LIKE I SAID ... OUR BIGGEST ROADBLOCKS ON THE WAY TO JACKSONVILLE THIS YEAR WILL BE OURSELVES AND THE INJURY BUG

IF SF WASN'T SO DAMN BAD, WE COULD'VE BEATEN OURSELVES ON FRIDAY AND TWO STARS OF OUR OFFENSE GOES DOWN

SCARY

Good news to hear. I was really worried that it would be something serious. We need both of these guys to be healthy.

Now Tice, take this as a lesson and pull our key player out early against Seattle!

I am not comfortable with them playing next week either, especially McKinnie it sounded like he was in serious pain right after the injury. I would rather they sit out the game completely. There is no real need to have them play this final game. They both have plenty of practice and look primed for a great season. Who cares if we lose to Seattle in the preseason, I'd rather beat them in the regular and possibly post season.

God, if they play next wek, tice needs a serious head slap. I don't see any reason they need to play next week, just like they didn't need to play in the 2nd half last night.

Also I am not gonna feel happy, until I hear the results of their MRI's, that tells the real story.
