As I've said before, I just don't think Brady has gotten nearly enough praise for playing through this. What he did is remarkable. I generally don't like the whole "toughness" debate, this is about his ability to focus and perform under any kind of adverse condition.

Wonderful news for David Andrews and his family. Once an athlete is stabilized and a good level of anticoagulation (blood thinning) is achieved with IV meds, patients can be transitioned to oral (or sometime injectable) meds and sent home with outpatient follow-up. Good sign.

He got hit in the head twice. He got a tinted visor. He got smelling salts. And he was allowed to finish the game. These are missed opportunities to call a symptom a symptom on Thursday, not Friday. No blame or shame, we just have to learn and do better.

NFL training camp lower extremity (LEX) muscle strains have a huge cost. Players miss more time due to LEX strains than any other injury. So if you didn't care much about calf, groin, and hamstring strains this time of year, you may want to read on because the #NFL does. (1/8)

That means a significant tear, which was the fear. Team source, just now, said he'd be surprised if Jones avoids surgery, esp knowing it could speed up healing. We'll see how team and player decide to play this. "Mac will do what it takes to get back, we know that" said source.

A mild AC separation carries a rather quick recovery for a TE. A “mild dislocation” of the shoulder is another story (he may have had a similar injury with Miami). Hoping it’s not a major setback for Gesicki, but frustrating nonetheless. Will have to wait for clarification.

This seems like a great candidate for something that should occur INSIDE a medical tent....

If the NFL votes for daily testing of its players, the breakdown of weekly testing of major pro sports leagues will look roughly like this: NFL - 40,320 tests/wk MLB - 10,000 NBA - 8,700 NHL - 8,700 MLS - 5,000 That's 73,000 tests/wk for a chance at pro sports.

@anamariecox @SteveTSRA It's a post-op shoe for injury or after surgery. Best guess - his foot had to be surgically removed from his mouth.

#Patriots QB Tom Brady has been dealing with throwing elbow issues for weeks now. @MikeGiardi reports that Brady has lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), a degenerative process in the tendons at the elbow responsible for cocking the wrist back & supination (rotating the palm up)

Tom Brady was typing away on his phone while waiting for BB to finish up. With his THUMBS! 👀 Oh wait, is that not still a story??

The photo on the right is a test for a UCL tear. I'm worried that it was positive. The fact that he was ruled out immediately without an xray and doesn't even want to try to grip a football is concerning for a full-thickness (unstable) tear. Those require surgery.

Saints QB Drew Brees has been removed from the game after he hit his throwing hand on the hand of Aaron Donald during a pass rush. Teddy Bridgewater is now in at QB.

Bill Belichick talking about being so appreciative and respectful of what his athletes do every day is a very meaningful thing. The athletes have the physical and mental skills and carry the largest burden of risk. I appreciate that he says that out loud.

#Celtics announce "fractured" ankle for Gordon Hayward. This means not simple subtalar dislocation and RTP this season possible but unlikely

As a Mom and a doctor I am ANGRY that kids are being murdered in schools because it’s EASY to buy a gun and HARD to get behavioral healthcare. This sh*t is fixable. It’s a matter of public health. Stop making excuses. #AngryAmericans @PaulRieckhoff @peter_masiakos
