Woo. Feeling somewhat better about this news. I want this dude on our team!

So it is neither an acl or broken leg.

Thanks dr susweel.

Good to hear it not ACL.

It still could me an MCL, which is what the speciation on tv was (and is right where the doctors were looking at).

That's not the point. he said it was either a broken leg or an acl and that he was out for the year.

Praying its just a bad bruise.

I think they( the announcers) were saying it was an MCL because it was on the inner part of the leg, and the MCL was a far less serious injury than the ACL.

i aint a doctor doe

Anyways, good news is we have 3 weeks until the season starts so that should give him a good chunk of time to heal up and maybe it only cuts into the season a few weeks. Could have happened in the last pre-season game.

Why do I get the feeling you are spreading b******t as usual.

It's my opinion it looked like an acl or broken leg.

Are you a doctor?

Never said I was but I've seen enough football injuries.

Again its just MY opinion.

You should say so in your original post.

We all see what you were trying to do.

Ok. I am a 4th year med student. I think he either injured his PCL or his patella. But since he already had an xray, his patella is probably ok. The most likely injury is either a bruise (swelling, something that is not serious) OR the PCL injury. I doubt he has a meniscal injury, but that is possible. There's no way in hell he injured his ACL because he was hit from the front. To tear the ACL, you have be hit from the side or from the back. It's extremely rare otherwise.

And so yes, I think he will be fine. 6 week injury I'm guessing.
