He injured his left elbow back home in Hawaii while preparing for training camp when he was running steps with his brother. Kemoeatu tripped on a step and landed on his elbow, causing the injury.
“I tried to catch myself and landed on the elbow,” said Kemoeatu. “It’s not sore right now, until I put a lot of pressure on it.”Kemoeatu wore a brace to protect it in practice on Monday and will continue to wear it for the next few weeks. Kemoeatu is currently one of the players in a battle to replace Alan Faneca at left guard, so he has to make up for the days he lost.
“You know, this guy is a guy that likes to work,” said Tomlin. “He is very prepared. He had a nice offseason. He came in here in great condition. We went out and worked and it’s great to have him back.”
“How many days have we been here? That is how far he is behind,” said Tomlin. “But he is a professional and I’m sure he will catch up relatively quickly.”
