ACL and MCL tears - similar to what Carson Wentz went through. Wentz was hurt in December, had surgery, and was back the next season (missing two games the next season).

Sheesh, if I’m Sunshine, I would pull an Elway/Eli and stay away from that franchise

pretty much tore everything you can tear in his knee.

even if he does play he’s pretty much done for all of next year and will never be the same.

Finito.

That's the only person I've been able to find online that is saying that...

yeah kid just tore everything you can possible tear in his knee. He’s out minimum for this season and next.

even if he ever does get back on the field he’ll never be the same.

I know it's most likely coincidence, but I would take a hard look at the footing at that stadium. It seems a lot of really bad lower leg injuries there...maybe more than other stadiums...and this goes back to complaints when RG3 was playing hurt.

This is the major issue. It’s not just an ACL/MCL. It’s his whole damn knee

Teddy Bridgewater's injury was so bad he actually could have lost his leg. He is playing again.

I have not heard anyone say that Burrow's was anywhere close to THAT bad.

Ok so you what do you want? I’m wrong? Ok I’m wrong. Feel better?

you know what he might play again everybody is different. Either way it pisses me off to see this happen to this kid. He’s legit my favorite non ASU player in years. He’s someone I was really rooting for knowing his background.

I picked him up last week in my Fantasy as my backup behind Kyler. gave up on Wentz, first week I had him he gets hurt. That's the 7th guy on my roster this year to go down for the year, 6 really but I'm counting Austin Ekeler I just refuse to believe they bring him back by the time he's healthy they're going to be eliminated so my guess is they sit him the whole year.

Just seems the injuries this year are crazy.

Same here. My wife and I watched the LSU vs. Alabama game last year in Shreveport, LA at the State Fair of Louisiana. Place was electric with fans huddles around TV's here and there and radios when they couldn't have a TV set up. Such a great game and Burrow shined in it.

yeah all it took was 2 years and 17 surgeries
Yeah but considering the infections he risked his like and the amputation
So is not nearly comparable
His leg doesn't look a human leg
For me Alex Smith is a hero, after what he went through( he was in coma) and being able to play a nfl game
And he is an old qb, not Burrow or Bridgewater
