Good news that DK's xrays are negative. Hopefully his MRI will also show no damage and he'll be back soon.

oh brother...........take a shot, congrats.
DK is one of my favorite players on the team. I want him to do better. If I noticed something, I'm going to point it out. He's had some easy drops this season. Catches he has made in the past.

Debatable, but ok. Easy drops? Hmmmm.
And this thread is about HIS INJURY. Why take a shot about drops? Has NOTHING to do with this thread.

Good news that DK's xrays are negative. Hopefully he'll be back soon. He should also get his hands checked too since he's been dropping a lot of passes that have hit him in his hands this season.

The MRI is the important x-ray, all the regular x-ray shows is any breaks, dislocations, etc.

The MRI today will show the extent of something serious like ACL/MCL injuries.

May not know until tomorrow's presser. Xrays aren't the best for ligament damage, though they will sometimes show if there is any major damage. They show up in shadow. MRI is best for that. It's 8:30 in the AM. Gonna take a few hours.

According to this - worse case, ACL. Best case, meniscus tear which is a shorter recovery. Hope it's neither.

I can't handle the wait! I'm going to be having panic attacks all day at work!

I'm wondering about the field too. There were a lot of injuries yesterday with the Chargers seemingly getting the worst of it. I hate seeing players go down from either side.

I tore my meniscus a couple years back. Doesn't really take that long to heal. And I'm just in average shape, unlike a pro athlete.
And how can someone claim BEST CASE is a Meniscus before even seeing an MRI? Hmmmm
