Jon Feliciano played entire season with torn rotator cuff - will miss 4-6 months following surgery

[Cruiserplayer]

That’s on his left side no biggie. Now please check Knox for carpel tunnel.

This is bizarre.

It’s actually very common players get surgeries after the season

I get that part.  I'm just saying, have we had this many players successively posting post operation pics or reports of so many non-trivial injuries being played through?

Yep. Tomorrow will be another photo from the hospital and someone saying they played all year with half an arm or something. 

He was on the injury report a lot I thought but can’t remember what it was for 

 

Mongo?  Feliciano was on the Injury report twice. Week 4 for "Neck" and Week 15 for "Illness"

 

Link above for those who want to wander through it themselves.

 

I don't see Hughes on it except for "groin" - no veteran rest days to argue about if they were really wrist ligament related.

Ford shows up for a "concussion" and an "elbow" - no shoulder

Had rotator cuff surgery a year ago November.

Took me almost exactly 1 year to get back to full strength (lifting weights wise).

Good to do stuff after about 100 days, but not 100% for a year.

So.....about this incredibly lucky healthy season we had....maybe we just had a bunch of tough SOB’s who fought thru it? I wonder who’s coming up in post-op tomorrow? 

 

When coaches talk about "high football character" THIS is what they mean. Not choir boys, but guys who WANT to play football, who LIVE to play football, and dont want to take time off just because they are banged up.

I think it's more just the social media generation nowadays. A lot of players have gone in for post-season clean-up surgeries in the past, they just didnt have a platform to post it for "likes".

I would say fines are most likely. Unless there are many more examples of skirting rules. 

 

There will be no punishments. EVERY team has guys getting minor surgeries on things they didnt report all season. EVERY team has guys letting social media know they "played all season with X injury".

Gore had two torn hamstrings.  Allen's spleen exploded in week 3.  Yeldon played all year with an in-grown penis. Its incredible what these guys will play through to win.

 

 

I actually could believe Gore having two torn hamstrings

I’ve had some rotator cuff issues and I can’t even imagine playing o-line with a rotator cuff tear— You have to put a ton of pressure on your arms and shoulders blocking, and that injury must zap your shoulder strength.

And yet he played with it. Yeah he will be fine from this surgery

RiotAct watched the entire 2019 season while suffering from a bad lower back from lifting his heavy, sometimes-whiny 2 year old son.

 

And a hangover.

Man I love Mongo. Was amped about the signing, said he would be one of the best lower FA signings.

 

Can play G or C at an above average level with a torn rotator cuff injury?

 

What a beast. I like this dude and want him to retire a Bill.

 

Get well Mongo!

 

I may also owe Ford a bit of an apolology, and the surgery to Oliver helps explain the up and down year.

 

I hope all three come back stronger and better than ever. The fact these three dudes bought in in their first year in the Red White and Blue and played through gives me chills and hope!

 

Go Bills!

The human body was not meant to play this game. I got that from a good authority.

 

Well, an authority.

 

OK, it was some guy who used to work in football.....and maybe still does in some fashion.....

[Jerome007]

Tough dude, no doubt

 

He was a keeper already. This just cements it

[Big Turk]

JFC...how many guys are going to have serious surgeries??
