If this is true it must be devastating to the young man. The same thing (season-ending injury in camp) happened his freshman year.

i remember prior to his first knee injury he looked LIGHTYEARS beyond our current WRs to me and the people around us at that practice. then he blew his knee and waited a year and i don’t think he was fully healthy but still made some big catches his first year on the field.

devastating that he entered his first healthy year with the same injury

I doubt he'll ever reach his playing potential, unfortunately. Two ACL injuries is a lot to come back from. He seems to be another one of those guys that gets a lot of hype, but seems snakebit by injuries. Seems like we've had quite a few of those in recent memory (12 years or so). I hope he's the one to break that cycle.

sucks. I feel for him. He showed a lot of potential and promise. Praying for a safe recovery.

Thankfully we've gotten some WR's out the portal, so one of them will see more play time now.

Tough break for him
Before ready to play again.

Will likely have stiff competition
Will be likely be graduated.
Will need to be taking classes.
Will have limited class selection.

SO
Hope he stays and plays. Great story.
