Yikes, Gabbert's out for the season right?
He has to have surgery on his torn labrum. Whether it was 4 weeks ago, or when the season was over. Now it should just insure that he should be 100% ready to go when Training camp rolls around next season, unlike he would be if he waited till the end of the season.

The move to place Gabbert on injured reserved came a day after he visited orthopedic specialist James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala. That examination revealed the forearm situation more serious than originally thought – and because it was determined his recovery time would be extended.
Gabbert had played through an injury to his non-throwing (left) shoulder since an October 28 loss at Green Bay. Gabbert said he will undergo surgery on the left shoulder Monday, but that he hopes to avoid surgery on the forearm issue.
“That’s still up in the air,” Gabbert said of surgery on the forearm, adding that he has been told the injury does not involve nerves.
Further more, lets give Jordan Palmer a shot. Henne blows, I guess we'll see what he does vs the Titans, but 9 of 20 passes for 71 yards and no touchdowns against the Raiders. 45 completion % against the fuckin Raiders... and 16 of 33 passes for 354 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions Sunday. If the Receivers don't have over 200 YAC then those numbers are pretty bad. 48.5 completion %, are you kidding me?
Mularkey is trying to eek out a few wins to try and save his and Gene Smith's job. If they get a few meaningless wins and we miss out on a top talent like Jarvis Jones or Star I'm going to be fucking pissed.
