Hope he’s able to come back from it.

He’s going to need to have a conversation with Cadillac Williams, he tore the patellar in one knee, rehabbed it, then tore the other one the next year. He made it back, I think he is one of the few who came back from even one torn patellar

This kid looked really good in camp. I hope he can recover well and fast. Wonder who steps in his shoes now. Trading Hightower might end up biting the Cards in the butt. He fumbled way to much but he new the system well and picked up the blitz well too. Who is out there available?

Early reports were sprain. This kid would’ve had the starting job by game 3…straight beast in college.
I hope he has a 100% recovery and can do it again next year. Could you imagine having your dream taken away right before it is supposed to start? Awful.

Hope for a fast recovery!

Explosive kid that was looking like a better option than Beaner already. Get ready for 2.4 yards per carry Cards fans.

That’s never good for a running back. He already had major knee surgery in his senior year of high school, plus he was injured a lot at Va Tech.

Hopefully he can bounce back and have a good year next year.

Would be interesting to see who else is out there besides Portis and Tiki Barber.

However, to say he was going to be a “highlight reel” is pushing it a bit. He was a solid back at Va Tech, but fell off drastically after his record-setting freshman campaign. Beanie Wells was a more highly regarded back in college & we’ve all seen how that’s gone thus far. Also, losing LeShoure isn’t all that terrible. Average back in school who made a name for himself in one nationally televised game against Northwestern @ Wrigley Field by rushing for 200-plus yards. That doesn’t take into account that NW was one of the worst run defenses in the Big 10 last season. He was & is not the sure thing Mendenhall was coming out of Illinois. RB’s are a crap shoot nowadays. Unless you get an Adrian Peterson, you never know what you’re getting anymore.

he can handle 15-25 carries and is not a third down liability like BW.
