I'm not worried about the weight. during those weeks off, he won't be practicing with the team. how will this affect his play when he returns? we obviously can not expect him to come back in tip-top shape ready to roll over the Bucs. it'll take a couple more weeks to get back to football shape again. more realistic, wk 8 is when he could possibly start for us, if need be. hopefully by then Ronnie will be entrenched in the lineup and having a great season.
