TJ didn't have acl injuries. He had issues with another ligament in the knee cap - medial patellofemoral ligament.As much as I'm down for a good dog piling of Little Enos and Dino-Rod, let's not make believe that T.J. Watt was a slam dunk, absolutely clean prospect. Watt had two ACL reconstructions on the same knee while at Wisconsin. With all of the history of the Cowboys selecting guys with known injury issues, does anyone think for a minute that Watt would have stayed healthy in Dallas?
His first one healed without surgery then he had the opposite side do the same thing and had a cadaver hamstring attach it back so he could have a chance to play in time for the season, then the original one failed again and he then had it attached with a cadaver hamstring. Those injuries also happened when he was blocking and why he switched full time from TE to DE. He's missed one game out of over 50 in the nfl.
