Surgery of the day couldn't fix it, and he was toast after one stellar season. Boomer Esiason's shoulder in 88. Carson Palmer's knee in 2005. Andy Dalton's thumb in 2015. KiJana Carter, David Pollack, etc, etc. And those are just the injuries.
Terrible. But you guys have a great sense of humor about it. Burrow will be OK. It wasn’t an Achilles and grade 2 is the most common injury. Only guy I’ve seen cover it is Mark Adickes and he expects him to be back in around 4 weeks, but he’ll feel the injury for months. And he’s actually a surgeon that specializes in sports injuries (he’s the team doc for the Rockets) and not some moron sports journalist who has no medical background.
