Minnesota Vikings LB Tyrone McKenzie, a practice squad holdover, saw plenty of reps with the first-team defense during organized team activities (OTAs) and minicamp with LB Jasper Brinkley (groin, hip) sidelined.

  Buccaneers | Two candidates for MLB job    Sun Jul 31, 01:57 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers LBs Tyrone McKenzie and Mason Foster are considered candidates for the starting middle linebacker position.

Footballguys view: Foster was one of our favorite LBers in this draft class. He's not as big or strong as others, but he is extremely intelligent and knows how to find the football. Foster also plays with a chip on his shoulder and loves to deliver punishing hits when he tackles someone.

  Patriots | In no rush to sign McKenzie    Fri Jul 17, 01:44 PM

Christopher L. Gasper, of the Boston Globe, reports the New England Patriots do not have to rush to sign third-round draft choice LB Tyrone McKenzie (knee) because he suffered a season-ending knee injury during offseason workouts.

Footballguys view: We hope the Pats will still do right by McKenzie. He had some upside in IDP dynasty leagues before the knee injury struck because of the chance to be the long-term answer next to Jerod Mayo.

Christopher L. Gasper, of the Boston Globe, reports New England Patriots LB Tyrone McKenzie (knee) will miss the 2009 season because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, according to a source close to McKenzie.

Footballguys view: This is terrible news for the promising rookie. Hopefully he can bounce back and be a force for the Patriots in 2010. He bounced around from Michigan State to Iowa State to South Florida but durability was not an issue for him as he missed little playing time due to injury.
