His injuries included numerous ligament tears, a shredded ligament, damaged cartilage and a dislocated kneecap. He received a tendon from a woman who had passed away a couple of years prior. His surgeon called his injuries 'devastating and potentially career-ending' and stated 'on a scale of one to three, it was a four. It was off the chart.'
Palmer played all 16 games in 2006, throwing for over 4,000 yards.
Just curious. As a Doctor, do you know who's knee injury was worse? I mean there are different levels of injuries. I was just curious.

Anyway, Do i think they're rushing him back? I think Burrow wants to play. I think Burrows probably 85-90% healthy.
The 10% health I don't know about is his mental health. So I guess we'll find that out the first time a DL dives at his legs, or a safety blitz knocks him down.
I'm sure Burrows going to have limitations compared to his rookie year. People who are used to seeing Burrow scramble and run the RPO offense, I personally don't think you'll see that incorporated into the office this year due to the bulky knee brace Burrow will wear all season.
I think we'll see more drop backs and roll outs but the designed runs and RPO's I can't see us really running this year.
