I was hoping it'd be an MCL or only a partial ACL at worst. Damn.

He hadn't even signed yet.
Wish the kid a speedy recovery.
2443468, is that normal?

I ain't doing shit until my paper is straight. You got players getting frowned upon for not reporting until they get paid fairly. ... this guy didn't even have a contract yet!

All rookies sign an injury protection waiver. He will still get his normal rookie deal that is allotted to his draft slot. He will still get his guaranteed money.
2443462, That's so shitty

Feel awful for this kid
2443480, Hopefully he's better for next year.

Realistically we weren't going to make a playoff push this year anyhow. This year belongs to the development of our offensive talent. Wish the kid a full recovery.
2443489, terrible terrible terrible

he'll bounce back but that absolutely sucks, for him and for the Jags. Wish him the best.
