Patriots Injury News Will Campbell Week 12 Injury [11/26 update: Placed on IR]

[bormio]

Yeah, they can tell before the MRI, they can tell when they test the stability of the knee right there on the field.

Sometime, not always

 

[UGAPatsfan]

I think he was actually KOd for a bit there

Yeah rival or not you don’t want to see that. It’s why I hate seeing targeting in CFB no matter who does it. Actually surprised the NFL doesn’t have it.

Obviously this play was just bad luck, but still shocked at how many head hunters there still are in the NFL and CFB given what we know today.

Sometime, not always

Sure, that's true of anything, but the Lachman test is accurate in the 90th percentile.

He’s Will Campbell aka Big Country. If it’s in fact an ACL, he’ll just tell it that’s it’s wrong; it’s actually an MCL & self-manifest his return for the playoffs.

Yeah, that one was just he couldn't protect himself hitting the turf.

Nothing “credible” yet besides Dr. Chao, but I saw this…

The super bowl dream is still alive if true. With Indy losing the first round bye is in sight. If they get that that is 7 weeks till their first playoff game.

From his first snap this season I didn’t like the fact he played without knee braces.

 

[Pape]

There wasn't a single dirty play on any of the injuries. We have this game every year, where we lose like 3 guys in one game.

Knee torn to shreds. Hopefully he'll be ready week one 2026

Why? You're either still a douche bag or...still a ****ing douche bag.

Wtf? Trolling? Why would you say that when you have no idea? Nvm, we all know why.

re-think this one.

Why? Because I saw Campbell w a towel over his head on a cart. Since when is that a "good" sign?

When was the last time you saw a guy carried off on a cart, towel over head NOT have a major season-ending, miss 8+ game injury? I'll hang up and listen

Without an MRI? Wow amazing to know that.

You don't need an MRI to determine an ACL. The lack of stability in the knee is obvious. They use the Lachman test, the pivot shift test, and the anterior drawer test. The MRI determines the amount of damage. So if the knee is stable, they would use the valgus stress test to check the MCL. I guarantee you the Pat's doctors already knew what it was by the time Will made it to the locker room, but they do not know the extent. That is the MRI. With that said, I think the person you are responding to is full of crap.

There was always Gronk in Denver.

I thought it was career ending by his reaction.

FWIW…I wonder if it’s a tear or sprain (assuming it’s an MCL)

An MCL tear is a type of sprain, with "sprain" being the general term for any stretch or tear of the ligament. An MCL sprain is classified into three grades based on severity: Grade I (a mild sprain) is a stretched but not torn ligament, Grade II is a partial tear, and Grade III is a complete tear. A Grade III does not necessarily require surgery either. Many complete tears can heal with non-surgical methods like rest, bracing, and physical therapy.

In many years of watching football? A lot. Doesn’t mean his knee is “shredded” and he’s done until next season. Stupid comment by you. Hell, Paul Pierce left a Celtics game in a wheelchair, we all know how that ended up.

Dude, you won, first to go on my ignore list. Well done.
