Dante Fowler, he be hurt.

[Toker Smurf]

Sad.

[LinvilleGorge]

It's not all bad.  He can hang out here at watch the games.  That wouldn't suck.

Did they keep the receipt?

Jaguars' 1st-round pick Dante Fowler tore his ACL and is out for the season, league source tells ESPN. Just wow.

Terrible.

I was honestly looking forward to watching him play week 1.

Oher can sleep better now...

[L-TownCat]

I feel for the kid.

Not Jax, just the kid.

All of them work so hard to get to this point and then it's literally ripped away.

Just hard to watch.

[Bartin]

Reports are that it was the ACL only. The MCL and Meniscus are fine which is great news for him. Just a standard ACL tear almost always results in a full recovery these days. Tearing multiple things in the knee is when it's really bad.

yeah I was ready to post a funny gif near the start of this thread, but I'm glad I didn't.  I was worried

it could turn out serious, and so it has.

Now what's this I'm hearing about Funchess being on a cart?

OK, why in the name of Jeebus are unsigned rookies practicing in pads and helmets? Didn't Dallas get reamed for this a couple of years ago?

[DanTheMan]

Terrible.

No better way to see what you have in a LT than to put him up against a great pass rusher. If he can't handle a rookie who can he handle?

[UpstatePanther]

No sympathy here. For Fowler yes. For Jacksonville, zero, zip, zilch, nada. I remember how nasty they were saying we weren't a football area, didn't deserve a team, what a joke we were, etc. Seriously.

 

just like a clumsy, self-conscious little brother would do...

 

but seriously... i didnt know this. water under the bridge for me at this point, but if i hear that at all from a Jacksonville fan, i am going to flip on them haha

 

though that statement begs the question, does anyone actually know a Jacksonville fan? last i heard, they were even more rare than a Butt Pirate fan...

At least that's some good news for the kid.

Anyone rubbing it in on this should feel like a piece of poo.

I hope NFL Man of the Year Thomas Davis calls him tonight and gives him some encouraging words, gives him his number, and keeps in contact with him throughout the rehab process.
