August 31, 201610 yr Wow.... Will Carroll Verified account @injuryexpert Source confirms tibiofemoral dislocation, ruptured ACL for Bridgewater. "Trainers may have saved his leg and career by quick action." That's unreal. I still am in shock it happened from planting.

August 31, 201610 yr That's crazy how it happened, particularly as he's not a big heavy guy. Boy I hope he can come back from it.
August 31, 201610 yr Man how does that happen with no contact? It doesn't. Damage resulted from contact at a previous time. It just picked that moment to tear the rest of the way. Who knows how long it has been injured? Continuing to play on it finally finished the job
August 31, 201610 yr Golden opportunity for the 9ers to move Kap. Zim does not seem like a Kaepernick kind of guy.

Continuing to play on it finally finished the job Ironically, in his last preseason game, Teddy juked a defender and looked more mobile than just about any other time since at least his Freshman year at U of L.
September 1, 201610 yr Yep. I keep waiting for my meniscus to tear the rest of the way. It has been 5+ yrs since it happened. I wasn't sure what happened at the time and tried to ignore it but the swelling and soreness kept coming back. Sometimes I don't notice it, but most of the time it is sore and swelled. It will probably happen when I'm standing on a ladder with a chain saw.

It will probably happen when I'm standing on a ladder with a chain saw. Mine tore 3 weeks ago in a softball game. I was just batting...nothing stressful or anything. Now I'm waiting to see if it "resolves itself" or if I have to have surgery.
January 27, 20179 yr Report: Bridgewater to Miss 2017 Season This sucks. Two whole years missed for recovery. Have to wonder if he'll ever get back.
January 27, 20179 yr Report: Bridgewater to Miss 2017 Season This sucks. Two whole years missed for recovery. Have to wonder if he'll ever get back. Knee dislocations are bad, and can be really bad and never fully heal / get back to normal.
January 27, 20179 yr Report: Bridgewater to Miss 2017 Season This sucks. Two whole years missed for recovery. Have to wonder if he'll ever get back. This is a damn shame. Hope he can get back to NFL but more importantly I hope he handled his money well just in case he can't.
January 27, 20179 yr And for doing nothing other than a drop back in practice. What a shame and freak accident.
