Around SBN: Watch Out For Cowboys UDFA Tim Benford

LS David Binn Placed on Injured Reserve, LS James Dearth Signed

As reported by Kevin Acee, long-snapper David Binn has been placed on Injured Reserve and will missed the remainder of the 2010 season with a hamstring injury.

This is a bigger deal than it may seem, or would be for other teams. David has recently been named a Special Teams captain (for the 1st time, I believe), is the longest-tenured Chargers player and might just be the greatest long-snapper in the history of that position.

Also, as you'll find if you do a Google search of him, he once dated Pamela Anderson (years ago too, when it was still a big deal). 

The team has signed veteran long-snapper James Dearth, most recently with the Washington Redskins, to take over Binn's duties on Special Teams.

There's a possibility that could be Binn's last game as a Charger

They guy is getting close to retirement. He belongs in the ring of honor either way.

No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

First Whitehurst and now this! NOOOOOOOOOO! Is there anyone on the practice squad with babe magnet potential we can develop?

Luckily, for Binn

I heard there’s an opening at BFTB for an ex-Charger columnist.

Damn Dexter

Scored the winning TD and got Binn hurt on the same play.

by CABurrito on Sep 15, 2010 1:48 PM PDT reply actions  

It's all because of AJ's big ego!

Just kidding, I hope it’s not the end of an outstanding career. Best in the biz.

man that sucks

Hardwick said in an interview that he was more happy when Binn was named a captain than when he was, he said he shed a tear over it because he deserved it so much.

sucks…

Well, nobody can take it away from him now.

Sucks that he’ll miss out on the SB ring, though.
