Reiss/Schefter: Gronk Got Knee Injection At Hospital Today

[sevengables_2207]

Behold!

Pats fans posters "official" response to local/national mediots synthetic hyperbole-laced reporting on all things Patriots!

He wouldn't be held out from 2 days of critical practice on a playoff week if he wasn't hurt.

He didn't play all preseason and was healthy

Im sure his knee is injured somewhat...hes definitely getting treatment.

but the back, belicheck is clearly screwing woth everyone.

 

[RayClay]

Ok, now im convinced bill is just toying with everyone. All the rumors come out then they updat the injury report to say back and knee?

How did he hurt his back in 2 hours? Lol

Where did they do that? not on Patriots.com.

Injury Report

Right. As I recall he got twisted around stretching out for a pass on the left sideline and got up looking hobbled and in pain.

Football is football, but we've seen that one too many times, and this would be at least the 2nd time that it caused him an injury as we were heading into the postseason. He re-broke his arm on a similar type of route that forced him to sprawl out down the sidelines.

It is what it is, but let someone else hit the ground full force all sprawled out on an uncatchable pass down the sidelines.

Injury Report

Just heard it on NFLN as well. Knee and back injuries.

 

[RIpats88]

I dont buy that a back injury pops up randomly at 7pm on Thursday. Bill clearly is having a laugh at the rumors and misinformation. Imo

What did gronk slip in the shower?

 

[long distance]

So Rappaport says no injection in knee and Reiss says treatment on knee which included an inj . Reiss didnt really say inj in knee .

i just hope no one misses a game trying to crack this one

 

[Mack Herron]

Gronk had back surgery in college (why he was available) and again in 2013 (fractured vertebrae). Nothing incredible about back pain.

But to pop up this late after being held out of practice? Doesn't pass the smell test to me

 

[shmessy]

Tomorrow will we find out he's been in a car accident?

Seriously, what the HELL is going on?

Rob Gronkowski now dealing with back and knee injury

 

[VectorPrime]

The back "injury" might be a smoke screen. But I believe about the knee 100%. Maybe Gronk's camp leaked out that he was hurt, it doesn't mean the team did anything.

 

[JMC00]

So Reiss, Schefter and Rapoport all had the getting treatment for the knee but missed the back thing?

Someone's jerking the media around.

 

[VectorPrime]

Knee is real, back is fake and probably put out there because Bill is pissed that he lost control of the narrative.

He didn't practice and is listed with knee and back injuries. Nothing to smell. We don't know what these injuries are or when they occurred. Could be old injuries that flared up in practice, a game, or at home. Could be new. I see no reason to deny them.

The back was added later...wasn't originally on the report

Doesn't necessarily mean it occurred later. Could just be an oversight or administrative error or revision. I don't see why it matters really. We'll find out soon enough.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I will LOL if I see this tomorrow.
