Howard Wilson broken kneecap

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.

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's way back when...when the doctor blew smoke up your ass to heal it?I tore ligaments in my knee when I was 16 at baseball practice. No contact, and I wasn't even running at the time.

Not broken leg.....torn ligament...



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.

Yup, IIRC, Irving banged knees to cause his busted kneecap. Before that, I had never heard of it happening.
That must have been some smoke to leave a long zipper scar on my right leg.
Stone Age surgery Gip. Arthroscopic procedures today- the incision is about a 1\2 inch. Microscopic cataract surgery- it's a millimeter or two.

I did exactly that returning a punt where I ran out of bounds. No contact. Fractured knee cap. I was 16 like Gipper playing high school football.

Wow, crazy! I've never heard of this in my 49yrs..... My bones have typically broken when I hit the earth too hard.

Same here twice. Same sister. Softball goes over the fence. instead of run around it, to apparently not tear up my leg
she pushes me over fence,catching foot between those deadly spiked top & top post slamming left arm to ground. Next she pushed me from a tree after throwing her barbie out of the tree with the amazing J.I Joe parachute with barbie attached(sis named Barb of course) that broke my right arm. (Mom said i deserved it
)Barbie did survive but that damn cheap string on them JI Joe's sucked.... -

Though I have had the knee surgery on ligaments, and had gall bladder surgery, and had tonsils out when I was like 5.....I have never had a broken bone.
A few times I have smacked my foot so hard up against a chair or something I thought I broke a toe...but no, just bruises.

Yup... and the stories that have always perplexed me are golfers who break their own ribs swinging...

Among others I know Matt Damon did it learning the game for the movie he did with Will Smith... The Legend of Bagger Vance.
