The ortho I saw basically said like 90% of tears are men between 40-50 who are weekend warrior athletes. That pretty much was me. I ended up doing tons of stretching to prevent against a risk of a tear. I now stretch my Achilles for like 30 minutes every night, and then before I play hoops in the mornings and then after. Makes a huge difference. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 I really enjoyed him the one good season in Chicago. He was fun to watch screaming out of the backfield catching passes. Sadly his careers probably done now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 It’s really such a sad story. He lost 2 of his brothers in recent years and can’t catch a break with injuries. Luckily, he got a decent pay day with Chicago to the tune of almost 10M gtd. Hopefully he was smart with his money. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Oh man, that’s bad. I feel terrible for a guy who was working hard and potentially ended his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a huge difference. two stories…. 1 I played pick up hockey at the old sabreland off Niagara Falls blvd with some friends. We rented ice time for once a week for most of the year. I was on the ice and I make a very good defensive play sliding on the ice on my stomach. I get on my knees sliding on knee/ shin guards and I turn my body as I’m still sliding so my skate blades hit the boards first. I get up I can’t put any weight on my one ankle. I strained my Achilles. It took 6-8 weeks to get better on its own. I could walk and stand but could not strain it more with running or skating or peddling a bike. 2. a couple years ago I had a meniscus tear. I was scheduled to have surgery. It had to get postponed at the last minute because the surgeon tore his Achilles playing basket ball. You think the dr should know better… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't end up needing surgery but it was like I was dragging my leg behind me for a month and felt like I was walking on nothing... When I laid down to sleep at night was the worst...felt like someone was grabbing and squeezing the Achilles tendon hard... Ended up having to wear a lace up boot any time I played sports after it healed or else I would get Achilles tendonitis so bad the next day it literally felt like it would tear Everytime I took a step.

ArtVandalay Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Ugh. Poor guy, just awful. This is effectively a career ender, he'll be 28 when he returns and will be approx 3 years removed from his last game week 3 2020 with serious injuries and a game that was built off his joystick physical abilities.

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 He had an MRI and confirmed it's a torn Achilles. I feel really bad for him. He's fought back from injuries before, but this one might end his career. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10036067-report-former-bears-rb-tarik-cohen-suffers-torn-achilles-injury-on-ig-live-video 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappysnackcakes Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I heard the pop but also heard Wet A** Pu**Y playing as his soundtrack. I can’t believe we’re dealing with a mental giant here, one who’s ensuring he’s properly stretched and prepared for such a workout. Sorry. 2 3 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
