Interesting bit from Ryan Hannable:
Stephen Gostkowski explains real-life reason why he needed hip surgery last season
“If I kept playing on it and I kept doing more and more damage on it, I was looking at being 40 and having hip replacement," he said. "Getting it taken care of sooner rather than later helped prolong my active lifestyle and possibly to continue playing.”
Still wonder how badly this was affecting his accuracy given how consistent he had been. I also wonder how long he had been dealing with it, whether it was a nagging thing over the course of a couple of seasons, etc.
