Kiko Alonso tears ACL, then runs a marathon on way to get treatment.

It would be interesting to know but it could have been anything. We've seen plenty of players tear their ACL when planting and turning (non-contact). I know someone who jumped a foot in the air and tore their ACL on landing. Another person tore theirs jumping over a wave at the beach. Admittedly those are non-athletes but how many times have you seen an NFL player tear their ACL while just running around the field?

I partly tore my ACL while jumping to block a shot in a pickup BB game. Blocked the shot but landed wrong. Just a freak accident, can happen to anybody playing sports.

Too bad it happened but if it was gonna happen let it be now, he should be almost 100 by the this time next year sad to say.

I'm curious if working out in Oregon means playing basketball which a lot of these guys like to do

 

Do all the ppl talking about Lawson getting more playing time now realize he was slated to split time at DE with Hughes and most likely starting?

And the bubble ... DID NOT BURST! Sorry bud but you are wrong, thanks for trying :) Study up, maybe next time you try to call someone out you will be correct. He was LB and a DB.

 

Prove it

 

And don't call me bud, bud.

 

Maybe next time you try to call someone bud they will actually be your bud

More Keith rivers is not a good thing based on his time in NY and CIN

 

That was my impression when we signed him... And then when we called him a starter and Lawson an end.... Heck, I can't even recall a nice fluff piece on him from OTAs, but I'm hoping someone has some positivity.

So edgy, so cool, so gugny. I would suck start a shotgun if thought your post was funny.

I love you, too, NDBCF. I was only half kidding, though. The "sky is falling" crowd is ridiculous. He's a mediocre LB who was part of a crappy D last year. What are we really missing? I don't think a lot. Promise? Absolutely. But he was far from a sure thing.

 

But I love you.

He's a PED suspension waiting to happen.

He overpursues consistently.

He is undisciplined and all over the field.

He was a starter on a monumentally horrid defense.

He had 2 good games ... all season ... and people want him in Canton.

 

This is not a big deal.

What a bummer - I can't believe that Kiko gets hurt, before the season, working out. Stunned.

 

He's definitely one of my favorite young Bills! Get well soon Kiko...

I can't recall a worse pre-season Bills injury ever.

 

And I thought losing Shawn Bryson to an ACL his rookie year was bad...

 

Didn't Nate Odomes tear his knee up one off season playing basketball? Not sure if that was the of him with us, or maybe his first season with Seattle. Or maybe just a trick of my brain.
