    Mentioned it in the other thread- 6-8 weeks before they let you put weight on the leg. Similar injury that knocked Kyrie Irving out of the Finals a couple seasons back. Didn't seem to affect his play after he rehabbed. 🙂

  • Waiver wire dealing to be done

    Oh yeah... with first dibs, it's likely to be a busy season...

    Then who would play Left Tackle?

  • Surprising account of how the injury occurred...

    "It's disappointing but this a part of playing football,'' Wilson said in a statement from the Browns. "It was kind of a freak thing. I was just running around and my knee just kind of locked up on me. I didn't think much of it but the training staff wanted to get the proper testing so I got the MRI. I'm a positive person so I will have the surgery, work hard in my rehab and look forward to getting back to out there and helping this team win some games.''

    I had assumed there was some "contact" involved... even if it was just knee meets ground.

    surprise? call in the water treatment guy?(ok,The Waterboy) it seems the ickyagan state surrounded by hot dog water has flowed into the canal's of lake Erie & has poisoned our turf. far to many strange things have gone on on that practice turf since Bentley..do you remember a actual injury that happened in a GAME the last 2 seasons besides every QB on our roster?

  • Two? No... 2.3 or so would include Gipson's broken leg tho...

  • Shit... way too early for "next man up"...

    Surgery for a knee cap sounds like the patella tendon may be involved. The bone healing is fast compared to mending the patella...

    But an opportunity for a UDFA...

    I tore ligaments in my knee when I was 16 at baseball practice. No contact, and I wasn't even running at the time. It was early in the year, like Feb/March, and we were just hitting off a tee in the gym....and I don't recall even swinging at the time it happened...but it was just BOOM...shredded ligament. No real apparent cause or explanation that I know of.

    That must have been some smoke to leave a long zipper scar on my right leg.

    Howard fractured his kneecap in a non contact injury..... Very rare. Soft tissue injuries and long bone leg fractures happen all of the time in non contact injuries, but not things like kneecaps, ribs, skulls ect...

    Weird injury for sure.

    You weren't getting it. Tour spoke of "T. Gipson's" broken leg. I related the story of my torn ligaments.....my real name is...well...look at the 9th and 10th words of this post.

    I was just using your post to make my point how weird of an injury this was..... that's all - nothing sinister. 😉
