I could be wrong, but I think the CB broke before tony was rolled on by hicks.
He landed on his elbow and that took the force of the fall.
That might well be. Either way, they're fragile bones. They can't be protected surgically.
I'd be happier to hear he got a judo trainer and some training on how to fall properly during the offseason. I know defenders try to drive that shoulder into the ground, but changing the point of impact is the only thing that's going to protect him in that situation. Or just practicing taking more sacks if he's going to end up exposing his off shoulder. This might be one where it's his bravado and not his skeleton that's the problem.
