swamprat Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I did not watch the game, but saw the play in which Milton was injured. It is not pleasant to watch. The lower half of his right leg is not pointing the right direction after the play. Thankfully, St. Joseph's Main is only a couple of blocks from Raymond James Stadium. He was then transported to Tampa General and was in surgery the last I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Anthony Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 That’s a career ending injury more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run To State Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Horrible injury, I feel really bad for Milton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrcarrier Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I caught the highlights of the game. That did look like a horrific injury for Milton and it will be surprising if he plays again, which is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted November 24, 2018 Author Share Posted November 24, 2018 No updates from UCF or TGH, this morning. Several orthopedic surgeons had indicated that the video confirmed a dislocation of the knee. With that comes restriction of the artery in the lower leg which will cause permanent muscle damage if not restored. The emergency surgery was to save his leg from being amputated. One surgeon on Channel 10 news, this morning, described it as akin to what happened to Zack Miller of the Chicago Bears, last season. Horrible thing to have happen.

I hate hearing about injuries of that magnitude to anyone passionate about what they do, whether it’s in sports or other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Reports are that the surgery was successful and Milton's status is "Good". Not sure what that means, but I am glad the surgery was successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfan41 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Reports are that the surgery was successful and Milton's status is "Good". Not sure what that means, but I am glad the surgery was successful. Any word on if they plan on given a legitimate update as to the extent of the injury. I'm sure a lot of folks are curious. Hoping for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for the best. Due to HIPAA laws, unless Milton, himself, OKs it, nobody can report anything about the status of his health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems it has been less publicized than usual. But like you said it's up to him and he's been through quite a bit this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
