Reader suffered a torn quad last season and he's, as expected, still healing from that. Davenport had an injury during OTAs. This could be related to that. Not much is known about Manu's injury. By not much, we mean nothing at all.
There shouldn't be any high level of concern about any of these players making these lists. It was pretty expected.
