Based on the video where does he damage the meniscus?

Leg, and he doesn’t have “all the specifics to be honest with you”. The reporter asked him specifically what it was. Hopefully the reporters start to drill down on this, because on this Tuesday press conference they just dropped the subject quickly when McDermott said week to week and leg with no specifics.

10:31 left in the 4th when he gets hurt. Probably should have pulled the skill starters as soon as Allen was pulled. The Patriots were beyond punchless at that point and posed no threat come back.

McDermott said “leg” so if taken at face value is not a knee. Ruling out meniscus. Also Chris Brown today said “foot injury”. When you look at the video it looks like Beasley got cleated from behind, and/or his other toe sticks in the ground somewhat after the large plant step.

I don’t think McDermott is being strategic here, it seems as if Beasley has a foot sprain. But I think he’s going to push to be out there for the the Wildcard Round.

Based on the fact that McDermott called it a leg injury (and not a knee) and the video looks like his heel got stepped on, I’d say it’s a 2-3 week foot sprain.

Thanks for the posting, not much to go on.

I zoomed in on it and watched it a few times. It looks like his heel gets cleated. He takes a few steps after the big plant step which is where a big ligament injury would most likely happen. The corners left foot clips Beasley’s right heel. It’s at that moment Beasley picks his foot up immediately and dives to the ground. Thats why his feet were crossed when he attempted to get up and he stumbled. I know they were looking at the knee though on the sidelines, but he takes several steps after the big plant step so it doesn’t look like a “pop” injury.

Nothing else to add, just week to week?

I’m looking at that again, it looks like the back of his right foot gets cleated. I saw the trainers working the knee, but he drops with the corners cleat hits the back of his heel.

It’s in this thread, about Page 2-3.

He’s going to be on an aggressive treatment plan until the Playoffs.

It was that jarring large step that seemed to cause this.

Most ACLs that are non contact have a pop, where the athlete lifts their leg mid-play. Beasley finished out the play, but he took a hard plant step with his left leg, I don’t see the knee “buckle”. When he gets up, his facial expression isn’t dire pain, but his legs are crossed as he tries to stand up.

He came back in after halftime, so he passed protocol.

I don’t see a “pop” in the replays, because he doesn’t immediately lift his leg. But he definitely takes a hard step on his left leg, then tries to gather himself for the ball thrown behind him, that looks like the injury to me. And is there significance to when he tries to stand up, he uses his knee to get up and then his feet are crossed.

Thank You Bills. He’s useless in live situations.

I know, forgot the programming has to be 100% Bills positive at all times.

Agree. He was a 6’4” vet receiver with 4.5 wheels. Not sure why he had to go.

All I’m saying is, it’s been delay after delay with Brown. On our best team since 1999. It has turned into a lost year for him, and he’s going to get inserted back into the lineup and just be full go?

I’m losing patience with John Brown. He needs to be out there Week 17 getting reps. Can’t depend on him if he’s trying to get up to speed in the Wildcard Round.

Easiest to Hardest: 1. Miami 2. Colts 3. Steelers 4. Browns 5. Titans 6. Ravens

Tua is a dump off artist. Not impressive at all tonight in any facet. He is Captain Checkdown.

He’s a bust. It’s over.

The Bills should make it a priority to get a real backup QB.
