1. He was 100% wrong on Burrow
2. He was 100% wrong on another high-profile injury recently (can't find it).

I can go on; the Twitter profile is full of hearsay and opinions, little rooted in fact. Now, he is a doctor and doctors can diagnose things, but that's when they see the patient and touch the area, work on it, etc. He's watching it on TV and making calls.

The big one was Burrow though; thanks to him, there was all that mass hysteria and chicken little attitudes towards the injury, when anyone with a brain and who listened to people that actually worked on Burrow, knew he would be back for the start of the season at the very latest (and he was back way before that).

Mixon could very well have a HAS, but let's wait for someone who will see the injury in person, to tell us about the severity, not some borderline, "former NFL-doctor."
