I've been sitting on this for a few days because I know it's being played very close to the vest but I know it was posted on NCIU so I figured I'd share here. It wasn't me who posted on NCIU but a friend over there brought it up without me saying anything. Some of you have probably already heard but Adrian's got a pretty serious jaw injury from last weekend and it's pretty shocking that he's going to try to play. My best guess is that it's from the hit that knocked him out of the game temporarily in the first half. Right now he's essentially got a 'band-aid' fix for the rest of the season and then surgery with a long recovery. I don't think that they're worried about it getting worse as much as they're worried about pain management. It's gnarly. I can't give much more detail than this, just fucking pray he doesn't take another shot to the chin any time soon and be thankful the guy is a goddamn warrior.

Again, this is all the detail I can give so don't ask for more. Please don't share this on RSS and be mindful of who you share it with.

Edit: I forgot to include this in the original post, but the concern for him is more pain management than the injury worse. The concern football wise is how much he'll be able to communicate on the field.

If it’s actually broken the Docs and Frost should make him sit.

Best case scenario going 6-6 and to the Detroit pizza bowl isn’t worth having your jaw wired shut for a year after some major oral surgery.


Smothers can get sacked just as good as Martinez, the offense being a dumpster fire won’t skip a beat.
 
I heard that too but i wasn’t really buying it yesterday. Sheesh.
 
Appreciate any and all info of course but, how could someone with a gnarly jaw injury that will require surgery and intense pain management give a completely normal press conference two days after it happened? I mean there's no doubt his jaw got fucking rocked on that play, and maybe I just don't know anything about this particular injury, but he was speaking completely fine on Monday:

Yea that's definitely fair. Like I said I can't really give any more info than I have already. My point was that the totality of his situation, right now, is gnarly, injury + 'band-aid' = gnarly.

I was absolutely shocked that they didn't review and call targeting on the play. The guy hit him up underneath the chin with the crown of his helmet.
 
His jaw is not broken.
