Why do you think he will not play this year?
It's micro fracture surgery. New cartilage only develops so fast and no faster. The new cartilage is different than normal cartilage. One misstep and months of rehab down the drain. The key to micro fracture rehab is patience, patience, and more patience. The team could have done a much better job communicating expectations with the fans. I put the lack of information (and in some cases misinformation) directly on Marvin.

Remember when Whitworth missed the entire pre-season in 2013 and then played every regular season game having one of the best seasons of his career?
I don't remember the specific injury, I'm almost positive he wasn't rehabbing from micro fracture. The last person on the team I remember who had it was Geathers.
