Twitter: Pollard says he tore his left plantar fascia

[slick325]

Didn't Amari Cooper have this issue (not this season) and continued to play through it?

 

[shabazz]

He'll be missed, but it's not like we lost Derrick Henry or something

 

[conner01]

It is. Shoot him up and he can play

They will give him PRP and pain injections
But I don’t know that he goes this week but we shall see. It’s gonna be something he has to play with a few weeks either way

R-E-L-A-X.......

Kellen going to trump Belicheat by only running 2 times....and passing 70 times.

It will work...

Trust in Kellen Moore

unbelievable , this fricken team is F$#%$#%... what a bunch of fragile players..

Steady......

Mine took a year.

It's a nagging, annoying injury that takes forever to heal because it's weight bearing.

But apparently it's better if you completely tear it as Pollard has. I still can't imagine it not being an issue the rest of the season.

Pain aside, can you run on it?

Put Micah in the backfield
He can play both ways lol

Been there, took me 4 months. Good luck Tony.

Pollard is fragile.

i thought we were only supposed to speak of him in hushed tones.

 

[freemanjc19]

Sit him.

You want him ready to go come playoff time.

Don't talk about playoffs! Are you kidding me? Playoffs?! I'm just hoping we can win a game, another game!

Sorry, coudn't resit!

Woody--- is he out for season?.....by any chance you hear a prognosis?

 

[JohnsKey19]

This is an injury players can play thru. It may limit him some...

 

[shabazz]

I had it too and played on it, these guess have top treatment everyday. Also, he fully tore it which accelerate the healing process.

I played Madden with it.....its more mental than physical

That sucks. He's been the best RB on the team.

It will limit him.

I imagine it feels like stepping on a nail every time he plants.

They are young and have world class treatments
They also don’t have anything to do but rehab so pro athletes generally recover faster but everyone is different
It’s painful and one’s ability to deal with the pain is different than others ability

This is usually a long term recovery multiple weeks. Very painful. I highly doubt he plays the next two games.

2288--- this is season ending from what i have gathered?....but

Woody this is what i was able to locate medical journal of torn or ruptured plantar fascia------Recovery time was varied. Ten feet were asymptomatic by 6 months post rupture, four feet by 12 months post rupture, and 26 feet remained symptomatic 1 year post rupture. Our findings demonstrate that plantar fascia rupture after corticosteroid injection may result in long-term sequelae that are difficult to resolve.
