UPDATE SATURDAY: Coach Pete Update on Davenport - It's Serious!

well when you think about it, and how they termed it "serious/significant" there really are only two devastating foot injuires ( that can derail a career ) - achilles and lisfranc.

And since Underhill specifically replied to Kat that it wasnt an achilles, just had to be the worse of the two. Hopefully he returns to old self, but damn if that injury for a DE isnt likely the worst one to have.

ugh.


Here is a study that might make you feel a little more positive on Davenport's future:

"Nearly 93 percent of National Football League (NFL) athletes who sustained traumatic injuries to the midfoot returned to competition less than 15 months after injury and with no statistically significant decrease in performance, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The findings, which focus on Lisfranc injuries -- characterized by fracture of the midfoot bones and/or disruption of the midfoot ligaments -- between 2000-2010, were presented today at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) annual conference in Las Vegas."
