Martinez held out of practice with turf toe

Status in doubt for this week's game.

Terrifying injury for TMagics future and our offense this year.

Next one up, let's go Armstrong. You're the future of NEB football on the offense.

Sadly...why would you play him during the UCLA and run plays like that if he has turf toe!??? Obviously he thought he was ok to go, but his play showed otherwise sadly. I am a huge TMart fan, but if you're not 100%, let the future of the Huskers get a shot to do something with the ball (this is more of a coaches decision). The offense needed a spark last Saturday and the offense sure as hell didn't help the defense.....

Just saw this on Twitter. Hope the injury doesn't linger.

Turf Toes and Hamstrings are bad news injuries. Here's to a quick recovery.

Dang I hope T-Mart get well quickly. I'd love to see RKIII or Tommy Armstrong get full game experience, but not at the expense of an injury. What ever skills you want to assign to Martinez, that kid has given his blood and body to this team for four years. That's enough for my admiration.

Turf toe is the absolute worst. And doesn't go away quickly.

[whateveritis1224 308]

Do we want to run more? Have Armstrong start. But truthfully I'd rather have Kellogg out there because he'll probably be able to get it to the playmakers easier.

Lets see what tommy can do

[Hunter94 718]

I believe he had turf toe several years ago?.....it takes a long time to heal...Kellogg or Armstrong, bring them on...SDSU is a good game to bring them in...they both need playing time.

[Nobody 275]

i wonder if he re injured it or what.

[admo 1,071]

Ouch that's no bueno for TM. Hope he recovers fully by Northwestern just in case. I'm all for seeing Armstrong out there and some Kellogg too.

[Whistlebritches 351]

We shouldn't need our starting quarterback to beat SDSU and if Taylor is fighting turf toe then there really isn't reason for him to play. Turf toe will linger almost indefinitely until some time is taken off.

 

If Armstrong or RK3 have a great day then things are going to get interesting. A quarterback controversy is one more thing I'm sure Bo would like to avoid.

Sit Taylor this week. Bring him back against Illinois. Let that injury heal the best it can. Turf toe never goes away if you don't rest it.
