Dante Fowler, Jags, Tears ACL

That's got to be the worst way to get an injury. A week after getting drafted.

Gus has to feel gutshot.

Druggy WR. Sucky QBs. glass knee tendons.

Hurts knee is more accurate. Twitter is just speculating and worrying that it's an ACL. Officially they'll know more tonight.

Already?! Hope it's nothing more than a bad sprain.

Seems there's been a major spike in ACL/MCL injuries in the last couple years. Last year was insane. Hoping we see far fewer this year.

Here's the video, does NOT look good.

Number 77 Watts Dantzler looked pretty good on pass pro on that play.

My 'best defensive player from this draft' prediction might have just flopped in record time.

Thanks for the clarification, I will change the title.

You can change it back. Schefter is reporting it is an ACL tear.

This is just terrible. Crazy timing too, during their first rookie practice. I feel for the guy. He is young though. Hopefully he'll pull through and be ready for next year. :|

Dang........thats tragic.

Confirmed on NFLN.
Out for season. Torn ACL.
Man, gotta feel bad for the kid.

Looked bad on that cell phone video.

Also confirmed that he had NOT signed a contract

Supposedly a deal that if he gets injured they negotiate in good faith. This was signed

I am amazed that in today's environment where guys can sign so quickly he wasn't under contract.

^^^^
In this day and age you would expect a full recovery but that's not always the case.
May never heal well enough to play.
Infection and other complications happen.
Really sux.

Maybe we trade disgruntled Bennett to the jags ....

I don't know if I'd want a Jags pick. Their first rounders seem to all be jinxed

What a terrible way to start your NFL career. I can't imagine how low this kid must feel right now, here's to a speedy recovery!
