It took Teddy nearly 3 years to get back on the field full time and his was considered a miraculous return (much like Smiths).
It's not good. But anyone hoping for a miracle or a fairytale ending to all this just hasn't been a Bengal fan longer than a month.
It's a completely false statement to say people can tell how life impacting an injury can be just from seeing it. We've literally watch 1000s of players get smashed in the head and pop back up and 1000s players get knocked out. Teddy Bridgewater didn't even get touched on his injury. How could anyone seeing that say it was a terrible injury?
You have no idea what side of the spectrum this injury is on. Palmer had a torn ACL, MCL, and damaged tissue around his knee. It could be the exact same injury as Burrow.
Bridgewater had a dislocated knee, torn ACL, and other structural damage on a play he didn't even get touched.
