Depends. If they repair a torn meniscus he will be out for the season. If he gets it removed, he will probably be out 6 weeks. 
 

he should be able to play on it even if it’s torn assuming he doesn’t have a bucket handle tear (essentially the meniscus tears and folds on itself…painful and prevents knee from straightening)

 

 

I had a bucket handle tear back in 2014... The worst part was getting up from the toilet lol

No ACL tear. Thank God. Shut him down and get him ready for the playoffs. 

...and where has it been said that shutting him down for the regular season would mean that he would be ready to go come playoff time?  

 

The TSW doctors are always good for a laugh in every injury thread.

Imo Boogie has had his moments. 
 

Epenesa OTOH seems like his best quality is his sister.


Every training camp we read reports of Epenesa having good days and being unblockable at times. It never translates to the season though. He’s just out there doing cardio.

It’s difficult to get a sense of degree of Meniscus tear even with an MRI.  I expect they may do an exploratory (maybe that’s the definite surgery they are talking about) If he was walking around without a limp as reported and an ACL year is ruled out I see that as a very good sign.  Severe Meniscus injuries can be very painful and limp-inducing.

Anybody post this? ShoutOut to @CountDorkula for being my source.

Anyway... Player's Association wants the turf type @ FordField banned! Gr8... In under 5 days, Bills played twice there!

 

NFLPA wants it replaced immediately.  Gr8... Bills play later in season @ Cincinnati. Is that where Burrows got hurt? Or was it out of town?

Have they operated and replaced Millers knee with Josh's elbow yet?

My Files favorite line:

He started and played the 1st two series 

White got hurt in NOLA. They also have the same turf type the NFLPA wants banned!

Yeah, that's my thought.  I tore my meniscus in my early 30s and had a ton of swelling and pain in the first 7-10 days.  Didn't opt for surgery - just rest and PT and I was back to doing all of my normal sporting activities within a few weeks.  Granted, that was just golfing, running and pickup basketball and not NFL football...lol.
