Charlie, BIG Redskins fan here for 56 years....through the good and very bad!! I was at the game when Lawrence Taylor “ snapped Joe Theismann‘s leg back in ‘85. It was not a pretty sight.

Looks like he took a helmet guard to the ribs. Is it cracked ribs or a broken arm?

Yeah Larry, I had a compound leg fracture that required plates and screws... that really takes the wind out of your sails.

Won't take you a while to see it in this one. Had his surgery last night. Should even make it back for next season.

That just makes me cringe so hard. I cannot imagine having going through that let alone possibly seeing the replay as I recover.

I was lucky enough to be looking away when it was live. I FF through the replay, eyes closed. (So I won't be clicking on the Youtube link!) Yeah, I am that squeamish. I also won't watch televised surgery, be it real or fake/staged.

I lived through that same injury and have four plates and thirteen screws and chunk of cadaver bone to prove it. I would not be surprised if he did not play football ever again. I can tell he will be reminded of that injury every waking moment of his life.

Hated to see this happen. I only hope that this ain't a career ending injury

He's already saying he'll be ready to go by September. It looked way worse than it was. Good news. Appreciated all the Seahawks coming out and wishing him well.

Football is a very violent sport, needs to be banned just like boxing.

Didn't hurt as much as that last Bears kick.

And didn't hurt as much as what the Rams just did to us. Two playoff wins in ten years. We'll see what who gets the axe before next season.
