Did he even play in the 2nd Half? Great win and great game from Nelson, Carter and Barker in particular. Just like to know that all three of them came through unscathed.
 

in his postgame interview, Killer said something about needing to check out his condition.
 

Looked like he sprained his ankle when the defender pulled him down from behind (while swiping at the ball) when Barker was already in the end zone for a TD. He did not return after that - but was walking around and getting multiple ankle tape jobs. So hopefully it is not serious.
 

Ice....Barker was having his ankle taped by the trainers.
Looked like a lower sprain. I didn't see him with a boot on.
My guess with the lead they didn't want to take any chances with
him in the second half.
 

He was heavily taped and fielding punts after halftime but didn't play. I'm guessing mild ankle sprain otherwise they wouldn't have even had him catch punts coming out after half. Luckily, they didn't really need him. I'm guessing he'll be ready to go next week.
 


From the readings on twitter it looks like he is "cautiously optimistic" that he'll play next week. I wouldn't call it a sure thing at all. We'll be lucky if he can go full throttle next week.
