Report: Johnathan Abram getting second opinion on shoulder injury, hoping to avoid injured reserve

This is news. Apparently Raiders rookie safety Johnathan Abram suffered a shoulder injury in the team’s season opener Monday night. And it’s serious enough that there is talk about potential injured reserve. Abram has already gotten one diagnosis on the shoulder and is seeking a second opinion in the hopes of avoiding being placed on injured reserve, according to ESPN’s Josina Anderson.

My understanding is that #Raiders 1st-round pick, starting safety Jonathan Abram, will seek a second opinion/examination of his shoulder area, at this time, per source. A possibility lingers that Abram could be placed on IR as a result of his injury, source adds.
