Torn ligaments for Locker?

Having had one, I feel sorry for the kid if it's a torn rotator cuff.

They are lucky to have Hasselbeck. They'd really be up a creek if they had to rely on a backup like Sanchez or somebody.

Can't help but to just feel downright bad for the Titans sometimes.

Subtle but pointed.

Yeah I feel sorry for Locker too, the kid was injury prone in college. I just hope he isn't out too long!!!!

Me too DD! Tore it playing football my sophomore year in HS. Now I have to break up the scar tissue everyday by rotating it over and over for about 5 mins....and that was almost 20 years ago! Thats gonna suck for Jakey later on..

I did mine skiing, in my late 40s. I did a lot of physical therapy, breaking up the scar tissue starting a week post-op. The shoulder is fine now - no extra work needed, but I do give it some big spins before every hockey game.

OK does that mean he can't throw the ball anymore with torn ligaments? LOL

It's not his throwing arm. But it could certainly limit his ability to take snaps and hold on to the ball.

Throwing shoulder or not, it still needs to be healthy to play QB.
If your right handed and you break your left arm and have it in a cast and sling try to do things with your right arm only that takes two arms, throwing a football takes two arms and both shoulders.

They could always bring back VY

There ya go

Mine doesn't lock up, ever. It doesn't get stiff, or sore. (My shoulder, that is.) It was my right shoulder that got hurt, and even now, 18 years later, I still sleep mostly on my left side. I don't take any painkillers.

I had the job done by a team of "bring 'em back alive" orthopedic surgeons, who had a reputation of getting guys back into the game. In my case, the game is hockey, and these same surgeons used to play with us. They did a good job. I was good with my physical therapy, not slacking off, going to all my appointments and doing my home exercises as well.
