After being sidelined until Week 12 of training season due to an injury on his left foot, Bland has now been ruled out of the team’s second game due to an injury to his other foot. "I'm not going to put a timetable on it, I think he'll get back as soon as he can, but we will be without him this week," head coach Schottenheimer said on Friday, as per the team’s official website, regarding Bland’s injury and return.
"We don't think that that's what it's going to require. I'd say no decision is ever final, but we don't think it's going to be something that significant,” he added. “We've got some different packages that we're going to use. We'll use the safety down there some, we can play a little more base defense, but also you're going to see Reddy Stewart play a lot of football.”
