Cut to Denard's Right Hand. EDIT: w/ video interviews

Submitted by MAgoBLUE on

According to a tweet from Jags beat writer Mark Long (@APMarkLong) :

 

Jaguars RB Denard Robinson carrying ball exclusively in left hand after needing 10 stiches in right because "I think I'm a chef."

EDIT:  I figured I'd link to a couple of interviews that I've seen today of Denard at the NFLPA's Rookie Premier:

(you can see some kind of bandage on his right wrist/hand)

Just a flesh wound. 

Why would he use his left hand to hold the knife when he is right handed?  Did he get used to that when his ulnar nerve was an issue?

Neil Young pulled out of a tour in 1997 after cutting himself making a ham sandwich.  I'm impressed that Denard is "gutting it out" and blowing it off like nothing happened.

Your comment reminded me of the cross examination scene from My Cousin Vinny: paraphrasing, "Are we supposed to believe that water soaks into a grit faster in your kitchen? That water boils faster on your stove?" love that movie!

If you search for "Denard Robinson" on Google images, it's the second-highest-ranked photo of Denard with the ball tucked under an arm, after his Heisman stiffarm of Te'o.  However, it appears that all the other top results show Denard with the ball under his left arm, except for one...

... which, if I remember correctly, was also a pretty good run.  Maybe he should try carrying the ball under his right arm more often.

term ulnar nerve. Just as he learned how to carve up defenses, I am confident he will master this skill. Michigan Men never stop learning, no one said it was a bloodless process.

Edit: and a +1 for the "time to eat" entry!

The title of your post made me think it was the first line on the script for the 2013 Jacksonville Jaguars Hype Video.

His fingers clench and stretch as he prepares to receive a punt.

Side note since it involves Denard, Commissioner Goodell stated today that there is a "good chance" the Jaguars will play two games per season in London "very soon."

Denard will make fans in Wembley go crazy.
