CeeDee's AC

[SFloridaCowboy]

As someone with a previous AC joint disorder, I sympathize with our star receiver's pain and discomfort.

#88 has a partial tear of the ligaments connecting the end of the clavicle (collarbone) with the acromion bone. Playing football and getting knocked to the ground can cause a full separation. I hope our playmaker gets the best medical care.

I do not understand his wearing minimal shoulder pads. For an "AC joint sprain," he needs special shoulder pads. Very few orthopedic docs truly know shoulders well. Most are experts on knees.

A long time ago, I sent All-Pro WR Mark Clayton of the Dolphins to a shoulder expert, an outside medical expert who saved his season after the Fins' doc said he was out for the year with an AC joint injury. This other private doc, a disciple of the legendary doc Frank Jobe, MD, properly diagnosed the injury, treated it properly, reducing the severe inflammation and provided Clayton with special shoulder pads the Fins' doc knew nothing about. As a result, Clayton returned to the team and played well the rest of the year.

I pray for Cee Dee getting the best medical care this nations' shoulder specialists can provide.

I refer you all to a video which illustrates the AC joint injuries:

I would guess those special shoulder pads would restrict him from playing. Impede him from stretching out to make a catch.

OP....... that AC in the title had me on my head thinking that it was anterior cruciate ligament.

Had me wondering what the link between Lamb & America’s Cowboy was going to be.

Interesting video. Wonder if something like this was proposed but declined by CD due to potential movement restrictions.

While I don't often agree with AC we have respect mutually going back for many years now.

What, like two guys in the locker room, and one says, "Yeah alright, go ahead, I don't care."?

that doesn't excuse him from having those soft touched throws dropped out of his hands he was looking for hero ball so this is a way to make this guy a hero because he's playing injured I'm not doing it if you're gonna play you catch the easy balls thrown to you he didn't have to dive or jump or have any kind of contact he literally dropped 3 balls in that game that changed the flow of the game they hit him in the hands like somebody tossed it underhand that's how soft they look he literally made me mad so if you're looking for some excuses and that ain't one.... If you can't play get off the field if you can then you at least need to catch the easy stuff the basic stuff...34.5 mil you make all 3 of those

FYI he will be fine.. Did you realize sports teams have some of the best doctors in the world that's what the billion dollar leagues and ownership get you they make sure these guys are taken care of best you can get no doubt 'cause if they don't like what they're hearing they go to specialists they get referrals they will end up with some of the best care and rehab afterwards then it's offered anywhere in the world

He ain't even catching the non-stretchies

 

[Tangle_Foot]

Why worry about Cee Dee's AC in late November. The time to worry about an AC in Texas is May or June

 

[sunalsorises]

Hurt shoulder? Someone get Emmitt Smith on the phone.

We are making business decisions right here right now.
Thats absolutely all there is to it currently.

Nope,,, no... not how I read that.

Just as long as they're not sword fighting

RESPONSE FROM S. FLORIDA COWBOY: The above is not so accurate. I believe players are pressured to having surgery which can quick fix an injury, but the long term affects are not good. I believe many of the team docs are overly aggressive in recommending surgery, thinking about the team first and not taking the player's long term interests as a human into consideration. Jones had a lingering hip problem form late 2018 to early 2019, and underwent a brutal operation which allowed him to play in 2019 and gave him a huge free agent signing with the Dolphins. $82 million. Byron played two years for the Dolphins, but had serious injuries there; his failed recovery in early 2022 from lower left leg surgery, ankle and achilles tendon, didn’t progress to ever allow him to play in the 2022 season, or ever.

Today I can’t run or jump because of my injuries sustained playing this game,” Jones tweeted.

“DO NOT take the pills they give you. DO NOT take the injections they give you. If you absolutely must, consult an outside doctor to learn the long-term implications.”

“It was an honor and privilege to play in the NFL but it came at a regrettable cost I did not foresee,” Jones tweeted.

I feel very bad for this former Cowboy, a clean cut, articulate and intelligent young man. He came into the league injury free, performing at the Combine with feats unsurpassed by mortal men.

In early 2023, in announcing his retirement, he reminded us of the darker side of an NFL career:

“In my opinion, no amount of professional success or financial gain is worth avoidable chronic pain and disabilities."

It’s like Vince Papale wearing the smaller pads in the movie Invincible. Helped him run faster.

 

[Momanpr100]

Both my shoulders dislocate and goes back in on its own. I agree, it's very difficult to play like that.

 

[Cmac]

We're the only fanbase that feeds into questioning our player's injuries. Justin Herbert last year and Trevor Lawrence this year......paid and not a peep on their injuries or their will, or their pain tolerance.
Now Cee Dee?......after Dak.

Can anybody provide the intel on Diggs' injury?
