Jene Bramel's take:

quote:

"Tannehill's injury last year was left knee. He has been wearing a brace on that knee in camp. Today's reports note injury to left knee and to knee with brace. Pretty sure it's same knee. ACL may scar but won't fully heal without reconstruction. Stem cell treatment promising but hard to predict effects if any. Key with partial tears is stability. If knee unstable - surgery. After Tannehill's MCL healed, it would appear his knee was deemed stable enough to not have surgery. Braces protect but do not prevent the possibility of injury. Hard to know just how much team is concerned but seems more pessimism than optimism so far. Ultimately, exam is usually good but partial tears are tricky. MRI and sometimes direct look with scope may be needed to know for sure."

"Video doesn't look good but not conclusive. Usually team would have good sense on physical exam but this one could be tough without imaging."

Basically "idk, could be either fine or disastrous, I guess people on the team seem sort of worried though."

I know you can walk on a torn ACL but wouldn't the team doctors/trainers advise against that anyways, just as a precaution?

He should just get the surgery and get it over with. The injury already torpedoed last season, it's going to get this one, don't let it get a third.

I feel relieved that it isn't worse than before obviously but I'm worried this is a sign that he ultimately needs the surgery

Yeah if he can't make it through camp in a non-contact jersey he won't survive 16 games. He might end up with a more serious injury that threatens next year. Just take care of the problem so that next season he is 110%.

Get the surgery if it's needed but also sign and start Kaep
