58 yd FG is good off cross bar If players routinely can dunk, why not put a guy back on long FGs to catch(block) ball with one hand? (I get you can't bat at ball)

The concern is for the person, not the game. Hope Hamlin is ok. Reaction seemed like a heart issue from the chest contusion. Other than a hospital, no better place to collapse 🙏🙏🙏

Apparently this is the play where #BoNix fractures his right ankle. Have to say I missed it in real time. Kudos to his toughness to finish off the overtime win!

Patrick Mahomes Week 1 Update Here are the 3 key points: 1️⃣ There is **no way** Mahomes will be 100% healthy by Week 1 2️⃣ He **will** be able to throw from the pocket, but not be the mobile Mahomes we've known 3️⃣ The Chiefs still don’t know if he’s starting Week 1 (it’s only May) Full breakdown in the video 👇

Patrick Mahomes underwent surgery tonight to repair his ACL. The timing and the surgeon who performed the surgery essentially confirms he also tore his LCL, which makes his recovery more difficult.

Jake Paul suffered a mandible fracture that is broken in two places and will require surgery, likely involving two or more plates, with the possibility of tooth loss. 6-month recovery, jaw potentially wired shut.

The fact that Tyreek Hill had surgery tonight and not last night is good news. He’ll need multiple procedures to reconstruct his knee. Out at least 1 year, maybe 2. Still career-threatening.

Drake Maye injured his right throwing shoulder against the Broncos. How severe the injury is, and the exact diagnosis, remains to be determined. Heading into Super Bowl LX, I’m far more concerned about Maye’s shoulder than Sam Darnold’s oblique.

Jayden Daniels' elbow dislocation injury was grotesque, but because it is not his throwing elbow, there will not be a Tommy John UCL surgery. This injury is not career-threatening, and depending on the associated injuries, there is a slim chance it may not be season-ending.

Lindsey Vonn’s external fixator (“erector set”) tells the story. This wasn’t just a fracture; it was a complex open injury with significant knee damage. Multiple surgeries are likely ahead, including washouts and eventual hardware removal. Prayers up 🙏

Tyreek Hill suffered a severe knee dislocation, which is considered a true orthopedic emergency. This type of injury can damage the artery and stretch the nerve — hopefully that is not the case here. That risk is why he was immediately taken to the hospital.

By video, the concern for Patrick Mahomes is a torn ACL or LCL. Fingers crossed for a hyperextension varus injury with a bone bruise instead. But with the Chiefs eliminated, Mahomes’ season is likely over.

The Ravens traded for Maxx Crosby despite his recovery from a torn meniscus. Passing a physical depends on the team, and the Ravens were clearly comfortable moving forward with the trade based on where Crosby is in his rehab.

Tyreek Hill was released by the Dolphins. With another surgery still ahead, he’s unlikely to return until late this season, and it’s possible he won’t be back until next year. This type of injury, given his style of play, falls into the career-threatening category.
