Yeah man, I didn't see it roll and he was grabbing his calf. Remember Aaron Rodgers bulging calf that turnes out to be a blown achilles. Man I sure hope not! Kerr played his best game of the season tonight.Hope it’s not his Achilles.
Maybe I’m wrong, but unlike an ACL tear where you can still move a bit—I don’t think you can have much mobility with a torn Achilles. Didn’t he get back on defense on the play he got hurt? Every time I’ve seen the Achilles tear they go down and stay down. Not a doctor though, obviously.Hope it’s not his Achilles.
I’ve been around 2 people when they snapped their Achilles. Both went down like they were shot and neither got up by themself . I don’t know if that’s the case every time or with a partial tear though.Maybe I’m wrong, but unlike an ACL tear where you can still move a bit, I don’t think you can be all that mobile with a torn Achilles.

Hopefully a high ankle sprain but idk.
Yeah he got back on defense. I highly doubt it’s that, but just hope it’s a relatively standard ankle roll. Not a broken toe, fracture, or something that needs surgery.I’ve been around 2 people when they snapped their Achilles. Both went down like they were shot and neither got up by themself .

Yeah that’s always been my impression when seeing it on TV. I just watched the replay because I only caught it in passing live. He not only stumbled back on defense, but also contested the shot and jumped while doing so after planting off both feet.I’ve been around 2 people when they snapped their Achilles.

It looked higher up than anything related to the foot. *maybe* ankle, related, but it looked more like calf/achilles.Yeah he got back on defense highly doubt it’s that but just hope it’s a relatively standard ankle roll, not a broken toe, fracture or something that needs surgery.

It all depends on an individual's pain tolerance. My son completely tore his ACL, strained his MCL, and tore his meniscus in 4 places and walked off the field without any help. He returned and tried to play but his knee kept giving out. We all thought his knee cap was dislocating. Didn't know it was this serious until the MRI.I initially thought it was a cramp. But based on Pope and the KSR crews reaction after the game it seems it may be something much more serious. The way he favored it in the locker room after the game and based on those two reactions I fear it’s something much worse. My guess is Achilles and if that’s what it is that just proves how tough he is if he tore that and got back on defense the way he did. That usually makes grown men cry. Here’s to hoping it isn’t.
Tore mine in 2016. On a full tear, you can hear it pop in your head. It felt like someone hit me in the Achilles with a full sand wedge.I’ve been around 2 people when they snapped their Achilles.

That was my concern, because it looked like it came out of nowhere. Although I guess he could have already done it and agrivated then.Hope it’s not his Achilles.
I tore my calf muscle partially off the bone playing tennis and it reminded me of Kerr. I originally thought it was just a cramp because it balled up like a major cramp. I actually finished that game. But then it started burning and bruising. My whole ankle and foot was black and blue from the internal bleeding.Yeah he got back on defense highly doubt it’s that but just hope it’s a relatively standard ankle roll, not a broken toe, fracture or something that needs surgery.
wow, maysville ! Hope you're doing better. I myself simply took one step down the steps here at home and my ACL started to buckle. ONE STEP nearly got me. With a broken back, one small misstep for me, and I could go back into a wheelchair.I tore my calf muscle partially off the bone playing tennis and it reminded me of Kerr.

Was in a boot for 8 weeks. Talked about surgery but it reattached enough on its own. My left calf is still smaller than my right from the internal bleeding.
Hope it’s not his Achilles.
That was my first thought when I saw it. No contact. No rolling or anything.Hope it’s not his Achilles.
I partially tore my calf muscle about 18 years ago. It felt like someone pulled a razor blade across the back of my leg. I didn't have to have surgery but my muscle has scare tissue across it and my calf muscle looks shorter than the other one on my left leg.I tore my calf muscle partially off the bone playing tennis and it reminded me of Kerr.

Hope that didn’t happen to Kerr.
Hopefully a hyper-extended knee or high ankle sprain. Just want him back even if it's a month from now.Might be a little of a twisted ankle, knee tweak. Just came down odd due to the twist. Might be why he was held out. But post game he was still limping very hard (by video I saw).
Hope he is back soon.
But heaven forbid it is serious and season ending, where does he stand on a medical redshirt?
Could he return next season?
