Too bad for him. Hate to see these season ending injuries in back to back weeks.

Yep...

Could possibly affect his future

since I was at game and didn't see it on tv, was it a chop block?

It was a chop block, someone trying to keep him from getting downtowns to make a block.

Hopefully he's eligible for a medical, afraid this being the 5 to be the same issue Mario Ojemudia had with getting a redshirt. Sucks for the kid, Jim says he's a great kid.

It's pretty ridiculous that DBs can just launch themselves like missiles into o-linemen's knees. This one was gruesome. Hopefully it is not career ending.

I thought it was on a sweep and the cornerback went low into his knees because he knew he could not take him on full. Look a tad dirty to me.but I guess that is football. Taking a dive at a guys knees is bullshit. .

Feel bad for the kid. Hope he can get through the surgery and recover quickly.

It is the same thing as tackling the offensive blocker and that is essentially what he did. That shit should be illegal in everyway. He launched himself like Newsome was the ball carrier. That people..............is not man ball!!

They get thrown out for going high, now guys are going low. Knees and ankles are going to pay the price. If course that's not the reason this happened, this happened because the DB is a wimp.
