Injury Report: 2020 NFL Injuries Thread (Packers LT LT David Bakhtiari has torn ACL)

[Marc the Habs Fan]

He took a beating.



Looking forward to Crab Legs Jameis taking command though.

 

[Troy McClure]

If I’m Brees, I start looking at retirement.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

If that was major hip injury for Foles I think that could potentially be end for him

Going to be 32 and is already the slowest and least athletic QB in NFL

 

[Troy McClure]

The Browns could be in a world of hurt on Sunday. They now have their starting FB, RT, kicker, and long snapper on the covid list. Their backup RT is on the covid list. Myles Garrett is home sick but hasn't tested positive for covid (yet?).

If I’m Brees, I start looking at retirement.

He already signed a deal with NBC so he is. Everyone in NOLA is operating under the assumption that this is his last year.

He took a beating.



Looking forward to Crab Legs Jameis taking command though.

Let's just hope that he re-enacts his "Eat a Dub" speech for all of our entertainment.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Seems like Myles Garrett has COVID.

Hopefully it goes like Watson's torn ACL recovery and not like the destruction of Wentz' career since the torn ACL.

Brutal for Cincy. Indicating more than just the acl. So question is will he be ready for week 1 next season. QBs don’t have to make cuts like RB or WR.

Penny for Seattle tore his in like week 15 or so last season. Through 11 weeks hasn’t suited up for Seattle. OBJ was back in week 8 or 9. So coin flip if he’s ready week 1.

It's more than just a torn ACL for Burrow:



Definitely feel for the kid.

 

[Troy McClure]

That sucks. The NFL is such a better product when there are more good QBs. I hope he can come back healthy.

 

[GKJ]

The way he laid on the ground told me there was something more.

 

[John Price]

Pretty rough to hear about this. I saw it happen live on TV and I was so sad when it happened. I was a fan of his at LSU watching him play ball and I was hoping for great success from him. He was doing a great job too.

Get better.

Bengals would be smart to find a top-level backup QB next year.

Maybe Andy Dalton

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Feel so bad for the kid. I hope he has a full recovery. You don’t want to see anyone go down like that.

That...is very mean.

 

[Terry Yake]

that's just shitty. hope he can make a full recovery but you never know with injuries like that

that franchise just can't catch a break

 

[Avs_19]

Pretty much worst case scenario for Burrow. There's no good ACL injury but if that's all it was then he could've been back to start next season. That seems very unlikely now based on what I've read because of the additional damage.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Hopefully it goes like Watson's torn ACL recovery and not like the destruction of Wentz' career since the torn ACL.

Wentz' fall from grace is unrelated to the ACL at least individually. He put up two good to great years stats wise and basically dragged the Eagles to the playoffs last season.

It's more the mental aspect of the game he's screwing up, which imo is more scary if i were an Eagles fan.

Key point is that every player heals differently. AP returned after he tore his in week 17 and rushed for over 2k yards. Meanwhile Penny for Seattle another RB tore his around week 15 and has missed the first 10 weeks of the season. So his recovery is taking about 3 months longer than AP just as a comparison by position.

So happy that beautiful gem of a game wasn't an automatic forfeit.

 

[StreetHawk]

that's the crappy side of the business of the game. He came off his 4 year rookie contract, yet no 5th year option picked up. But ends up with a franchise tag? I thought the 5th year option would be cheaper than the tag.

Career earnings through 5 seasons is about $25 million, so he has money. But an ACL to a LB/DE, he won't be ready for the start of next season. So, doubtful he sees a contract with term and guaranteed money.
