    I haven't heard what type of injury KP has suffered - probably not needed to be made public - but what type of surgery might it be, given it seemed to be a pre-existing issue before the game? Wondering how it might affect mobility long term. Sprain? Something torn?

    There is a tendon that can get torn in a bad sprain, unless your an athlete they don't even bother to do surgery to reattach it.

    But if you do that, and if there is a fracture involved ... it might be a solid month before you are even just walking again. You might be able to play after that, but there will probably be a lot of pain and swelling after the games.

    If it was Ben, he wouldn't miss any time.....

    In all seriousness, it's probably just an arthroscope, which would only need about 4 wks

    Speculation is a tightrope procedure. Never heard of it before but the video I posted above touches on it.

    If I remember correctly that’s your own fault. You ignored dr’s orders and decided to go see nickleback or some other equally terrible band

    Sounds like injury prone for a meh QB.

    Sadly we need a center drafted next year. And don't have money for a free agent QB.

    We need a qb, bottom line, KFP is not the man. Watching DK sports, said Cards readjusted and just Blitzed KFP, doesn’t matter if blitz is picked up , KFP panics. HFS. To me this experiment should be over, look for another qb in draft and give competition to the 3 clowns we got.
