[Schefter] The Colts failed former 49ers CB Ambry Thomas on his physical today, one day after claiming him on waivers, saying his previous forearm injury isn’t completely healed. The 49ers cleared him over a month ago.
December 19, 2024
“Ambry feels good and is ready to play,” said Thomas’ agent Drew Rosenhaus. “My prediction is he will pass his next physical.”

Our entire medical team needs to be fired
Wow looks like the medical staff needs to be replaced again lol
Maybe we’re having so many injuries because our medical team keeps rushing people back before they’re fully healed.
I feel like our medical staff is only trained in the use of leeches and is equipped with a bonesaw and ether
Damn I hate this season…
how do we live in the Silicon Valley and have the worst medical team in the league??
I forgot he was still on the team. He hasn’t played a snap has he? They cleared him a month ago but did he practice?
Man, I swear the NFL be hiring straight from Hollywood Upstairs Medical College.
From rushing injured motherfuckers back to not catching clear head injuries and saying it’s just a back injury or some stupid ass shit.
Maybe some teams have legit medical professionals and I envy them but it just seems like so many players slip through the cracks for some insane reason. You either saw something and didn’t say anything which makes you negligent, or didn’t see anything which means you’re incompetent.
49ers medical staff with the United healthcare gold plan.
Probably Kaiser doctors and health benefits
While our medical woes are definitely an issue, something else is going on if the 49ers and Drew says he is ready to play.
Maybe Colts reassessed and rather him to clear waivers, save some cap, and sign him to the PS vs active roster.
“Abby…Normal, did you say?”
“Yes, I’m sure, that was it!”

The colts probably talked to him for 5 seconds and watched some tape and changed their minds
And there are people in this sub who say out medical staff and trainers arent the reason for injuries

The Niners need a better medical team. Been saying it since 2020.
Homie’s gonna sue
Lmao. Didn’t even know we had waived him. Tells you how much a shit show a season it’s been
They probably picked him up then realized he sucks and failed his physical to back out
Seems like the team has a bunch of idiots in the training/conditioning department
49ers medical staff: Ambry Thomas is all right!
Colts: Umm, he failed his physical!
49ers: Yes, he lost his left hand, so he’s going to be all right.
Is our medical staff headed by Dr. Fishman and Dr. Spaceman?
When teams are in trouble, they often call upon players/coaches that made them great We have 2 doctors that played under the great Bill Walsh.
I mean compared to the rest of the team he is a picture of health…
Why is every comment in here assuming 49ers medical team was wrong and then colts team is right? We really don’t fucking know and they likely have different criteria anyway
Guys, this is also a way that the cults can get out of the claim. Maybe they didn’t think they’d get them, maybe they just wanted a shot at him, but if they changed their mind they can just say he failed his physical.
Adding further evidence that our medical team is fucking garbage.
I don’t know if it’s the medical staff as much as the strength and conditioning coaches. Our injured players seem to recover well, it’s the initial injuries that seem to be catastrophic. Joint and ligament issues are strength and conditioning program issues in my opinion.
I’m just surprised he didn’t get called for pass interference during his physical
