WDE_OxPx_2010 5,321 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 You won't get one till Monday. MRI will be needed. Doesn't look good either way. Likely a ligament injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAYLORKEETON 808 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I assumed that, just thought somebody might have a good guess. I've been through two knee surgeries....not fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randman5000 4,235 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Definitely was in pain. Sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShocksMyBrain 9,389 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hate it for him. It was nice to see the other receivers step up to the plate though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,138 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hope duke is good. Seems like a bad knee injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike4AU 1,739 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 The stupid targeting rule results in tacklers going for the knee, just like what happened to Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eibua12 81 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 The stupid targeting rule results in tacklers going for the knee, just like what happened to Duke. There were interviews with NFL safeties and corners and all of them said this would be an issue going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUgrad2010 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I heard he was seen walking outside the stadium without crutches. Anyone have a pic, or did anyone else witness this? I'd be extremely surprised if he is okay. It looked bad. #pray4duke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passthebiscuits 6,885 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Early report "through the grapevines" was ACL. They will usually let the swelling go down, MRI then we will know for sure. That's all I can give you so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernSiberianSister 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Seems probable since they iced the knee immediately on sideline. He was grimacing for what seemed like three minutes on the field before ever closing his mouth. Then, he was really really upset on the sideline. I tried looking for him after the half in street clothes but never saw him. Honestly, I missed a good bit of the second quarter just looking through my binocs to check on him.

Tiger Vision 1 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Am I the only one who thinks that the tackle on Duke was beyond filthy? Thankfully our team isn't full of thugs who retaliated and went after Harris just for the sake. I swear that kid and rest of Aggies purposely tried to take him out. I'm glad I'm not a coach cause I'd have encouraged someone to throat stomp Harris after I saw that happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aujeff11 6,243 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Okay, so if he is injured for the rest of the year, which is horrible because Duke would have made money this offseason. Any chance he still goes pro? I agree with all the previous sentiments about players targeting the knees btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Vision 1 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Someone on the team needs to encourage Duke that the NFL isn't going anywhere and if he stays his number and skill level will increase drastically and he will have a degree.

I'd be extremely surprised if he is okay. It looked bad. #pray4duke He was on crutches on the sidelines. Dr Andrews spent a lot of time with him then a lot of people were consoling him. Pats on head, hugs etc. I would imagine he is finished for the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SumterAubie 3,033 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I agree with all the previous sentiments about players targeting the knees btw. Agree also. Helmet and shoulder pads to protect upper torso, nothing on lower legs. But would we rather have torn ligaments in knees or bruised brains/neck injuries? Ask Terry Beasley if you have any questions. Or better than that, try to ask Chuckie Mullins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randman5000 4,235 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Apparently it's a sprained ligament. Hopefully some rest will do it done good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passthebiscuits 6,885 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 First MRI confirmed sprained MCL only. Will get second opinion I'm sure. Great news! (Per AL.com of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
