TBBills Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Are people donating to his charity, does he have one? 1 Quote
nucci Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Something seems a little off to me. Shortly after we hear he's getting a 2nd opinion he's placed on IR and done for the season. His agent states that Hyde will be ready for next season. If it's serious enough for 2nd opinion and immediately is done for the season, how does his agent know he'll be ok? Plus not a lot of info from the Bills. Or did I miss something? Quote
Airseven Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Bills turn now to struggle with injuries. Could be 3-3 realistically at bye. 1 1 3 Quote

If rest or ‘minor’ surgery is next, it’s possible he’ll be back for the playoffs, should we overcome injuries. 🤞 Quote

Westside Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Hoping Hamlin or Johnson can step in and take over the position permanently. I have doubts the Bills would really want Hyde to return next year. Two neck injuries in his career is a good reason to move on from Hyde. Quote
T master Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Rather be safe than sorry & have Hyde healthy i think it was a smart move for him to go on IR although he will be missed i just wonder if at sometime later in the season if we will see him on the sideline routing on the boys in blue when the play offs come around .

Braedenstearns Posted September 25, 2022 Posted September 25, 2022 Putting him on the IR now. IF! he heals and is ready. Is he able to play in the postseason? I forget how the new rules with IR work? Or is he out for the rest of 22’? Quote

There might be some very good news as the physical therapist (;banged up bills YouTube, cover 1 guy) posted he may only have a cervical herniated disc. He reported however it occurred when Hyde hit woods in the first game. Yet hyde didn’t go to the hospital until after the Titans game , so I’m not sure how you could be certain he sustained the injury in Rams game without having a mri done at that time. Something with the timeline or info coming out is a little weird. But this could really be a much better prognosis than I was thinking when they said he was def out until “ next year”.. when a disc herniates it can go forward ( toward the cord ) , to the side where nerves supply the arm exit the cord ( less dangerous or severe) or a combination of both ways. It can fragment as opposed to bulging so that has less of a chance to resolve without intervention. Still, if the cord isn’t being compressed, you usually have time if not in unbearable pain to wait and see what happens when the swelling from the initial herniation goes down. Going to surgery quickly is obviously a more aggressive treatment option., but if it’s just one disc , it might speed up things in the short term. Hyde may have wanted to go that route rather than the more conservative waiting period. I was concerned they were being so aggressive about surgery because they might have seen something more serious on the mri , like narrowing of the spinal canal or spinal stenosis, which is more urgent and progressive, and you have little choice about surgery. If the canal is not narrowed , Hyde actually has a much better chance to return , maybe even this year. That’s good news and first time I saw any definitive diagnosis stated ( not sure how the therapist got the mri info tho?). So if true and it’s just a single herniation , that’s really good for Hyde! The neurosurgeons I have talked too tell me they do that particular surgery so often it’s a simple , routine deal for them ( amazing professionals yet honestly they do make their living doing surgery and not by observing , just being open about it 😊). I’m not a pro athlete , so If it was me as a professional scalpel fearing chicken, I would have opted to wait it out some as there is no risk free surgery, but these athletes are fearless and driven to return to play. IF TRUE, this is the best case scenario for Hyde to possibly even get back sooner than next year, but more importantly, this could be great prognostic news for Hyde long term and my thoughts/ prayers go out to him for an uncomplicated recovery! Icing on the cake would be a Bills win today! Go Bills! 😀 Quote

But Micah's INT in the endzone against the Patriots in that playoff game was magical. I don't want to hear talk about retirement. I want to hear talk about a legendary comeback. Some things are bigger than football. Life definitely tops that list. When you are talking neck injuries, is it really worth it anymore? I hope he returns, but if he decides his health is more important and a retirement, you cant blame the guy. Get well Hyde! Quote
