y*so*blu Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Broken orbital bone. Ouch. That explains the swelling Dabes mentioned. At least the eye itself wasn't damaged. I'm optimistic he'll be back sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMENNATION Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Tough break on a freak accident by an ascending player. It's a shame but glad he should be okay in the long term. That's most important right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w4rrior723 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Thankful it wasn't something worse, tbh. I would imagine he will recover fully from this within a few weeks. If I were him, I'd consider wearing a visor after this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a guess but I don't think he will be back before December, probably mid-December. They're not going to want to risk anything not being completely healed.

Acgott Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 Looks like 4-6 weeks is the estimate with him returning with a visor. https://sicscore.com/nfl/updates/daniel-bellinger-injury-short-term-ir-likely-for-te-after-freak-eye-fracture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y*so*blu Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Looks like that 4-6 week prediction is holding steady. Get well, Bell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he wears a visor upon returning. I don't know why more players don't wear clear visors. I understand in this case it was a freak accident. But there are tons of benefits of wearing the visor and hardly and detriments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
