A specialist says Burrow's injury is career altering
I'm going to copy past all the text because it's a lot. Joe Burrow #Bengals injury update Burrow suffered a season-ending right scapholunate ligament tear in his throwing wrist on November 16, 2023 against the Baltimore Ravens. Initially it was speculated that it was a TFCC complex tear, but unfortunately it was worse, the dreaded scapholunate ligament complex tear. This ligament is very important for the stability of the wrist, and since this/most ligaments have a poor blood supply it needed to be repaired. I asked an orthopedic hand surgeon colleague his thoughts on this injury as it pertains to Burrow and here was his response: “It’s a bad injury to have, invariably always lead to some instability over time and arthritis at an earlier age. 80% of normal strength and range of motion is common. Hard to do ‘dart throwers motion,’ which is important for snapping the wrist in the follow through when throwing. But these guys are super human, so I’m sure he’ll be fine.” Did this injury change his career forever? “Yes, for sure. For context, he’s the only pro qb I’ve heard of with this, so it’s hard to gauge.” Use this information as you wish. He should be cleared to throw by mid-May, on par with OTAs, which is on track assuming no setbacks. Will he ever be the same QB he was before the injury? Unfortunately we don’t know, although I can say he is at increased risk for new compensating injuries. As many of you know I’ve been writing/recording this rare and valuable insight for my company @TheFantasyDRS since 2017. Well I am happy to announce that we have decided to put The Fantasy Doctors up for sale. We have just launched the only fully-searchable NFL injury database available. This has over 450 players (QBs, RBs, WRs, TEs) including all of the active players and those that have retired over the past couple of years. This is a game-changer for the fantasy, betting and DFS industry, especially in the right hands. If anyone is interested in discussing details regarding The Fantasy Doctors my DMs are open (here & on IG). Feel free to reach out. If you find the information in this post valuable, I’m considering doing some consulting regarding injuries, I’d love to be an asset on your team. |

You mean getting sacked 50 times a year is bad?

It would absolutely suck to have your favorite team dig their way out of the basement with a pretty damn good QB only to have this happen.

Grip strength is gone and fumbles are more likely
