08:23 AM ET 01.20 | There's tough -- and there's Josh Chapman. Chapman revealed Wednesday that he had undergone knee surgery the previous day and would be missing both the Senior Bowl and most of the upcoming NFL Draft Combine. The surgery repaired both a torn ACL and a torn meniscus in his left knee. But neither the details of nor the fallout from Chapman's injury are nearly as attention-grabbing as when that injury occurred: October 1. ... [Chapman] missed just one of the Tide's final eight games, an intended light workout vs. FCS Georgia Southern that turned much more serious when -- thanks in part to Chapman's absence -- the triple-option Eagles ran for a stunning 302 yards.

Me thinks a lot of players play games with injuries...especially late in the year.

He's a good one. If any of your guys had done this you'd be wanting to give that person a medal.

Big quesition is how bad is the tear in the ACL.
The meniscus just causes a little pain as the bones drag against the tear. Usually no long term damage results from waiting for it.
