N/S: Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater suffers what appears to be a serious knee injury at practice [Dislocated Knee] (1 Viewer)

Man that is so brutal. I've enjoyed watching Teddy play since his college days. Hopefully he'll be fine. He has a lot of talent. This is a scary situation.

Hopefully this turns out to be a "looked worse than it was" deal.
 
This doctor is very good at analyzing information via tape and or reports and giving a pretty accurate diagnosis. Here is his tweet...

Not a lot of injuries require an ambulance. Not even an ACL tear. Whatever it is, hope nerve and artery are spared. https://twitter.com/murphPPress/status/770701544622874624 …

Yikes!

How does one get a compound on non-contact? Was he rolled into?

That's terrible.
 
Non-contact compound fracture? Geez.

And now we know why paramedics were involved. I hope no artery or nerve damage was involved here.

He's right. ACL's or other knee injuries aren't often emergencies.

He later says, he's not saying Teddy has a traumatic injury, just that the whole paramedic thing is odd, and the Hennepin County trauma center isn't the closest hospital.

EDIT: Never mind, I see that news updated.. yikes!

EDIT again: Fake tweets.
