deltarich87 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Yuck, I sure hope this isn't similar to Bradford's injury since it eventually knocked him out for the season last year. Don't like seeing that this will take multiple months to heal, either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricky Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 This just in from PFT. Apparently no surgury will be needed, just rest. Which means Rodgers will be hobbled the rest of the season. Then again, he took the Packers to the brink of the SB in 2014 on one leg. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/09/16/making-sense-of-the-aaron-rodgers-knee-injury/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 When Rodgers returned, my guess was some type of contusion or bruise. Gotta believe they wouldn't have pushed it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hyerextension wouldn't take 2 months to heal, probably same for a bone bruise. Any medical people out there who can shed some light? Assuming the reports are correct, with no ligament "damage", then a bone contusion (compression injury) then the knee has force to it. Bone/joint contusions due take a longer time to recover than soft tissue contusions. Differences in the amount of blood supply between bone/joint vs muscle. Bone bruises are often seen in ACL injuries (and other ligament injuries). MRI studies have shown that bone bruises can take multiple months to resolve. Things that will dictate length of time...1)size of contusion 2) location of contusion 3) Number of contusions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 My worry is Rodgers sustaining an injury to his other leg for having to compensate for his bum left knee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSG Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 With AR12's knee getting worse, I wonder if its smart to sit him down next week? While Kizer is a horrid back up QB, he might be good enough to beat Buffalo if we limit him to 15-20 pass attempts. We'd have AR12 as the back up just in case Kizer keeps up the insane turnover rate that he's had since coming to the NFL (its a turnover per possession this year).

There have been a whole bunch of media reports in the state that Aaron has said that his knee might get worse over the course of the season. I didn't hear him say it, but I sure am puzzled as to why he is playing if it needs time to heal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 It looks like this is the hubbub: Reporter: are you concerned your knee could get worse? Aaron: obviously that's a concern but I hope it gets better instead Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was asked if there was concern his knee MIGHT get worse, and he basically said yeah that can be a concern. Press ran with it. He never said his knee was getting worse or that it would.

squire12 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 There was an interview that Rodgers stated his knee was in more pain after the game and I believe Mon or Tues this week. Pain is going to be there and running, cutting, moving on it with the likely joint/bone bruise will increase the pain for a few days after.
