    His leg slid a little. Maybe just a hyper extension.

    Didn’t look like an ACL, hopefully just a hyper extension or sprain

    Worst possible time for TJ to get hurt, on a freak play too. Hope he's ok for the playoffs if we make it

    Early game today on Saturday, may give him an extra day if the Steelers play next Sunday.

    Good news from Schef, was that TJ was arguing to go back into the game today.

    Hopeful since he walked off on his own

    SEE. If a player of his caliber didnt want to go back in, then something is wrong.

    He had a slight limp but was able to walk pretty much naturally so hopeful.

    Soon as I saw the replay I assumed sprain.

    That gave me no comfort. I remember watching Rod Woodson walk off the field when he tore his ACL. Happily, it looks like this isn't as serious.

    Wrong…it’s not a grade 3….thats a complete tear. Most likely grade 1…that’s a stretching of the ligament. He should not have wanted to go back in either….MCL laxity makes the ACL more prone to tear.

    No chance he can play with grade 3 if we make it. He’s done for year if that diagnosis is accurate. Sucks balls

    On a garbage play too! To be fair Adams jumping out of control caused it, but TJ has to not just stand there flat-footed. He had to have seen Adams when he turned his head to watch the ball.

    Watt being iinjured is not the end of the world, that is why we have Herbig and Golden.

    We have a near 0% chance of winning a post season game without Watt. The guy is easily the DPOY. Without Watt we have a losing season.
