Oddsmaker Daily System

The teams that get to the Super Bowl each year usually have a little luck on their side throughout the season. One of the areas teams need to be lucky in is staying away from the injury bug. Many a season is lost Oddsmaker Daily before teams break training camp due to an injury of a star player. Here is a look at some of the high profile names battling the injury bug so far in camp.

Steve Smith, WR Carolina Panthers

Smith pulled a hamstring only a couple days into camp and the NFL's leading receiver has not seen the field since. The injury is not considered serious but could potentially pose a problem if it does not completely heal. The Panthers will proceed cautiously as losing Smith for any length of time during the regular season could cost them a play-off spot.

Tedy Bruschi, LB New England Patriots

Bruschi recently had surgery to repair the broken wrist he suffered on 7/31. He will be out the entire preseason with hopes of being ready for Week 1 of the season. With Bruschi's track record of recovery you can look for him in the starting lineup when the season kicks-off.

Clinton Portis, RB Washington Redskins

Portis partially dislocated his left shoulder in the Redskins first preseason game. Rehab will consist of rest and strengthening exercises and it would be a good bet that Portis will not see the field again in the preseason as the Redskins can ill afford the main clog in their offense to be out.
