NFL Network’s Adam Schefter reports that Ryan Torain probably has a torn ACL and unless the MRI shows it to be more benign than that tomorrow, will be placed on Injured Reserve.

That would be four, count them, four running backs to go down for the count this season, leaving only Selvin Young who left the stadium on crutches and might be lucky to hobble onto the field in weeks 16 and 17 at this rate. Peyton Hillis may end becoming the feature back by virtue of there simply not being anyone else.

Maybe I’ll go try out. Think an overweight 37 year old white guy has a shot? Eh, I didn’t think so either.
