I had just sent a trade offer (Ertz for Watson) this morning. Luckily the other guy did not rush to accept offer when he heard the news, that would have been ruthless.

 

Horrible news for Houston, kid can play.

Thanks for that.

 

Wasn't the story that he played a whole game or most of a game with a torn ACL as a freshman? I suppose I could look it up. ;)

Incredibly, most folks with isolated ACL tears can bear weight on that leg, and the swelling and pain start a little after the actual tear.

As an aside, does Jax take that division now? And if so, and the Bills get a wildcard spot, the Bills travel to play Saint Doug? 🤢

@SportsInfo_SIS: It's worth wondering if the initial injury to Watson's left knee occurred on the 72-yard TD pass to Hopkins with 5:01 remaining in the 4th

 

@FO_ASchatz: Possibly the first stage of Watson knee injury? Watson took shot to knee on this play, discomfort walking it off.

He did. Remember that play well. Pressured on 43% of his dropbacks... by far the highest in the league. Playing behind that line was an accident waiting to happen even if this is totally unrelated.

 

Count 9 months from now.... that puts you right about the first week of training camp. They need to not rush him. If it takes him until week 4 or 5 next season to be ready then that is what it takes.

 

I still say the reason RGIII failed was attitude, work ethic and no progression reading defense... but being thrown out there when not ready aftet his ACL certainly didn't help.

Wow terrible news and crazy when these injuries happen in practice or non contact.

 

In any event AFC South now down to Jags vs Ttians with the runner up not likely getting into the playoffs as a wildcard due to records.
