Official Packers Injury Thread

Ever, for Reed.
Ever as the same player for ZBB, and maybe ever at all. Return from patellar tendon repair is not as routine as ACLs, for example. I understand ZBB is having surgery on the same one he had surgery on this offseason after the partial tear last year. Two procedures on the same one.....

Are we sure he had surgery? I thought I saw it speculated he chose not to have surgery (meaning ZBB's original injury).

MLF said Reed told him he would have to undergo surgery . Did he change his mind?

ZBB? Per this last April:

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst confirmed Zach Tom underwent surgery after the season to repair his partially torn patellar tendon. (Matt Schneidman on Twitter)

Not hopeful for Reed's return.

Getting not hopeful for Parson's return. Seriously every update I read is negative on the timeline. They all say "no setbacks" but I would say moving the timeline back is a setback. Sounds like he flat out isn't recovering at this point. Just reading the tea leaves.

I've had the sense from the start that he was determined not to rush things. I'll be surprised if he's back before week 8 or so.

I meant ZBB's original injury. Thought there was a chance they were going to choose to let it heal but Patler has more info that he had the surgery.

Have to be careful how you construct the timeline. The team and Parsons have been pretty cagey about it.

Add Cooper to the year ending injury report. HUGE LOSS for the defense.

[Freak Out]

Fucking hell. It didn't look good.

Its just starting to sound a lot like Bak and Jaire. He'll be back....soon....no rush, but soon. No, not yet. He's back baby....for a game. Has some fluid buildup. Just needs a couple more weeks then he'll be fine......he's retiring.

Agreed. To me, the season was already really shaky, but losing Cooper for the year, and hearing Parsons' timeline is slower than projected, convinces me that this is going to be a lost season. A re-set, as a friend said. The offensive line is in shambles, the star you traded two first-rounders for has a slow recovery timeline which does not bode well, your star right tackle suffered a serious injury (again), and now your star up-and-coming linebacker is gone for the year.

Bad luck, bad decisions, bad coaching. It's the 70's and 80's again!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

It's the 70's and 80's again!

The Golden Age of Porn is back?

Are you kidding, APB? You had to pay for it back then. Now you can watch for free.

[Fritz]

Tex, your humor is always welcome. That was a good one.

Not to mention 70's bush is something I will be fine never seeing again.
