Twitter: Eagles safety C.J. Gardner out indefinitely with lacerated kidney

He'll return just in time enough for the Christmas Eve game I'm sure.

Man that sounds awful.

And you’re probably right. He’ll be back just in time for that somewhat meaningful game

How long did Witten miss with a lacerated Spleen.

 

[Risen Star]

Um, ouch.

 

[HanD]

How long did Witten miss with a lacerated Spleen.

around 3 weeks.

SO??? this turn into the eagles zone.. we can talk about the hated rival sheagals during game week in which we play them. ef them beagles seriously,,

 

[Point-of-the-Star]

Hope he heals without a hitch.

It's a game, a business, an escape for the masses. Never want serious injury for any of the participants, not even a member of the hated Philthy team.

 

[AsthmaField]

You could tell that dude was in some serious pain. Sounds really bad.

As will Dallas goeddert

CGJ was probably playing the best free safety in the league. That is a big loss for the Eagles. One of Howie’s best moves in the offseason. It is funny how the Saints seem to get fleeced by the Eagles every time they trade with them. It happened twice this offseason.

 

[Gonzomandela01]

Hope he is o'right and ready for next season

 

[JohnsKey19]

Scary. Watching it live, I thought it was a fractured clavicle.

One quarter

Heck that guy even need a helmet to play

 

[jazzcat22]

Got this from a quick search.

Depending if the kidney was repaired, excised (removed), or left to conservative treatment, return to play may vary case-by-case, but full recovery may take up to three weeks, providing there are no complications.

As will Dallas goeddert

Yep. Everyone in Philly will be jacked and ready to play. Dallas is their Super Bowl. They are always DESPERATE to beat the Cowboys!

 

[BoyzBlaster]

That's a big loss for them. If 'bad Dak' shows up for the Eagles game you can pretty much guarantee Gardner would jump a route in the middle like that GB safety did for 2 picks. He jumps routes like an aggressive CB.

 

[John813]

He has another kidney, cut it out and rub some dirt in there. These players are getting soft.

 

[G2]

Jesus, did someone make a shiv?

 

[Texas_Pete]

Yep, saw that. Hope he gets better soon. Never want to hear about injuries no matter what team is involved.

If he goes IR, that's 4 games minimum. The 4th game coming up on their schedule? Dem Boyz on 12/24.


He leads the NFL in INTs this season. This is a huge loss for them.

I don’t think he comes back until the postseason. Especially if they beat Tennessee
