    Wow, the kid had everything going for him too. Sounds like he’s gonna live but a football career is another thing!!

    Nope!! I’ve personally witnessed the effects of that, not pretty!!! Good luck to him.

    Makes me feel not so bad about my current condition now. Speaking of which I just found out that I’m out till at least July 5th, so I’m gonna go medicate myself with a bacon cheeseburger and a couple cold ones!! Lata

    After seeing pictures he is super lucky to just be alive. Sounds like his face got pretty banged up but it doesn’t sound like anything that should keep him out. From a football standpoint the jaw is the only injury.

    He scraped his knees (similar to the rug burns Scottie gets all the time). He will be ready a few weeks after training camp starts which is early August.

    Here’s some free advice to you people. I usually charge big money for this kind of stuff. Dont buy a motorcycle.
