    Not sure I've seen that since Rodney Peete. He tore up his knee on astroturf, hit the ground, and rolled the ball away from his body. I don't think either guy really had to worry about getting hit. They'd have just been tagged down. But I guess when you're in that much pain you might not be thinking clearly. Bummer.

    They are saying now that it was a foot injury and he could be out for the season.

    Crazy. What a strange thing that was to watch. I just read that he has a Lisfranc injury and he's expected to be out for the year like you said JJ. I had to look that one up~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisfranc_injury.

    He was placed on season ending IR today with a Lisfranc injury in his left foot.

    From the link: "This type of injury is named after Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin (2 April 1790–13 May 1847), the French surgeon and gynecologist."
    Seems like an odd combination - a foot fracture named after a surgeon/gynecologist....

    Surgery was his specialty, gynecology was his hobby? :shrug: :lolol:
