Because those reports were probably highly inaccurate. They almost certainly did not come from a U Georgia or patriots orthopedic surgeon. Do you live in a different world than I do, where all of the things that are reported by unnamed sources are true?
Didn’t want to make a new thread but I don’t remember seeing this video posted. If a dupe, apologies.
I really, really hope this young man makes it work here. It's not going to be easy; this is clearly the most difficult offense in the league to learn and at which to be proficient, and facing Stephon Gilmour throughout minicamp certainly didn't help - in fact, I thought it was a mistake to do that to him. But if he can firstly block his man and minimize his drops, then maybe Tom will give him a look every now & then.
That's an awful lot to put on his plate.We won't have a choice unless Gordon makes a miraculous comeback. There simply isn't much behind Edelman. So we will have to rely heavily on him and hope he is good out of the gate.

I was being facetious. When it was reported that his knee was "bone on bone" in the Summer of 2018 I noted it was absurd if people believed it and have been repeating the phrase ever since to highlight the stupid medical news reports on the Internet. Read my post again and you might find a bit of flippant humor in it.
Why would those reports be absurd ?
When people with connections like Lombardi said "bone-on-bone" he didn't literally mean there is no cartilage left but that this would become a second contract issue.
He had a knee scope leading up to camp in each of this first two seasons so far. So far odds look amazingly right that the folks who said a second contract might be an issue for him would be similarly right as they were with Gurley.
OT:
Smh. Hope for a swift recovery!
FYI I posted this before that thread was created. Have a blessed day.just an FYI, there was a main forum topic on this. Not sure what sort of "swift" recovery can be expected since his arm had to be amputated on scene. It's likely his football career is done.. The best that we can hope for is that he is able to live some sort of "normal" life and that depression doesn't over-take him..

Thanks for the comment. One person in the press said that Sony had a potential medical issue, which led to comments of "bone-on-bone", which led to he will not get a second contract in the NFL. If you listen to Lombardi's podcast on the order of QB prospects in the 2018 draft I am not sure he has a lot of connections .
When PatsFans has the order of quarterbacks to be drafted more correct than an "expert with connections" (in this case fill in Lombardi) I think we can put that expert in the "Borges 'Richard Seymour' bucket". That is not an insult to PatsFans draft analysis guys, but a compliment. I would trust PatsFans before I trusted Lombardi. Maybe I am partial to Reamer, Long Distance, BGC, BobDigital, and many others. I even read Captain Marshmallow, Andy, and when I am in a good mood, notes from Dartmouth.
All the comments were made by the press with no medical qualifications while the Patriots had medical professionals examine Sony and drafted him. Unless I missed something, the press' Sony comments are projections.
