But his back shoulder passes were way off target until lately. At times it looked like him and Chase had never even played with one another the way their chemistry was so off. Now he is hitting windows the size of toasters.
Not only is recovering from surgery taxing on the body, but missing all those reps does not allow him to perfect his timing which hurts too.
So glad to see him spry and back in rhythm.
I had the same surgery years ago. The difference between an open surgery appendectomy and a laparoscopic appendectomy is pretty big. Couple that with the fact that it sounds like he may have suffered from peritonitis and that's a pretty big deal. I know for my open appendectomy it took a really long time for my core muscles to recover. I'd imagine it's the same for most, even an elite athlete.
