AU64 10,122 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Up to a year for recovery? Wow. We're going to miss him....the best blocker it seems .....and made some clutch catches. Some other guys will need to step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, the patellar tendon does more than just hold the kneecap in place. If it's completely ruptured, then you are completely, physically unable to straighten your lower leg.

WarEagle10 77 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Patellar tendon tear is bad news. You almost wish it was ACL :/ I would have thought the exact opposite. Just durn! Well wishes for a speedy recovery. (I would assume he has already burned his redshirt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDE_OxPx_2010 5,319 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Oversimplified, tendons create motion where as ligaments control motion. Neither is good, but without motion you can't.... Move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can Jaylon be redshirted even thogh he's played in all 4 games? I know you can request a medical redshirt after he's played, but not sure where they draw the line on saying he's played enough to burn a year of eligibility. It may be strictly based on games, or maybe based on the number of plays he was on the field. The latter makes more sense to me, but then the NCAA has never been known to operate sensibly. Maybe someone else knows the rules and can clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigermac 11 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Participation in 30% of games or less for medical redshirt. Being that he was injured in the first quarter of the fourth game...he should be over the threshold. 4/13 would be 30.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdefromtx 3,159 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I do believe players can apply for an extra year of eligibility. Not sure the criteria though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksmmspt 1 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 You definitely wish it had been an ACL....still a long recovery, but not as long. Unfortunately, he can just ask Cadillac Williams about rehab and recovery times. I think it's a safe bet that he was the only RB in the NFL to return to playing after suffering 2 torn patellar tendons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
