@Cooper_DFF Finished what I feel like is a comprehensive, research-based write-up of ACL recovery for NFL elite RB athlete cohort
https://t.co/voCqhqyM1V
Colts QB Anthony Richardson was recently cleared by doctors to throw again and got down to work today in Jacksonville. Early word is his trainers had to hold him back. 👀
His surgeon said he is roughly six to eight weeks ahead of where he was expected to be at this time.
Christian McCaffrey is the only running back with more scrimmage yards than Breece Hall this season.
That's an incredible feat for Hall in that struggling Jets' offense and off the torn ACL.
#Jets QB Aaron Rodgers says on @PatMcAfeeShow that if he were 100%, he’d be pushing to come back. But he’s not there. “Being medically cleared as 100% healed is not realistic at 14 weeks."
Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard said he just now getting healthy in the NFL. Said he had double adductor surgery before his rookie season along with meniscus surgery (on knee). Had another double adductor surgery after his rookie year.
The 2023 Fantasy Football season has taught us/proved fantasy twitter one thing, and that is that certain players are “injury prone”. It’s time to face reality and start baking that into players values
Some players to be cautious of and understand that they will get banged up and are not willing to play through injuries: (SELLS)
- Tee Higgins
- Treylon Burks
- Kadarius Toney
- Odell Beckham
- Michael Thomas
- Deshaun Watson
Some players who are willing to “tape it up and play” (BUYS)
- Dallas Goedert
- Kyler Murray
- TJ Hockenson
- Garrett Wilson
- Josh Allen
- Jalen Hurts
- Aaron Rodgers
The way Brock Purdy grabbed his head here, I strongly suspect he felt something.
Because it was the end of the game & they have a bye week, everyone will pretend nothing happened.
It was a terrible idea to play him 6 days after a #concussion.
