Carimi was in the running for a reserve job at both guard and tackle, and we just have to hope this injury isn't serious. He hadn't been a standout to this point, but his versatility, familiarity with Mike Tice and steady improvement made him one of my early favorites for a roster spot. Losing him has a cascade effect on the competition at every other position, and I can't in good conscience tell you limping off the field with the help of multiple people connotes an injury that's going to be easy to recover from.
Let's hope I'm wrong about that, and hope for the best in general. Good luck, Carimi.
