I thought Futrell might have injured his shoulder, never thought about Poole.
I was worried about the same thing. Futrell does have the advantage that the shoulders have protection, while in Poole's case there is no padding over the sternum, where he took the shot. On the other hand, as we've seen this year, shoulder injuries are a definite risk, while most shots to the sternum will just knock the wind out of you. I imagine both have some soreness today, but hopefully neither has any serious ramifications. Futrell is probably OK because only 1-2 plays later he was returning a punt.
