How many times is this now going back to HS? 4?

I don't think he had an ACL in high school. 

Daaammmnnnnmm.   Hope it’s not bad.  This is terrible.

None. His knee last year was his only injury ever. He had an elbow thing but that was largely irrelevant 

I must have confused him with another recruit who had multiple knees in HS, my bad

All of our recruits have multiple knees, except that OL Mack recruited once. 

There aren't many former players I root for more than him.  Hopefully he can get healthy and get a second paycheck

Damn, so it's real bad?

Definitely not ideal. But it can be overcome 

Get his ass to Germany. And see the must see doctor everyone talks about. 
 

 No idea who it is. But I always read athletes flying to Germany

fuck, that had to be a botched surgery/ligament there's no way what he was doing was nearly stressful enough to tear it. 

That was my immediate thought 

bring him back to finish his degree, help the rb’s

then grad assistant

Nah, he needs to stick with them as long as they stick with him.  Pension, etc.

wonder if they just buy out the remainder of that, 1.2mil or so ….

Jonathon Brooks signed a 4 year , $8,417,082 contract with the Carolina Panthers, including $2,941,512 signing bonus, $4,914,107 guaranteed,

The rookie finally made his first appearance in the Panthers uniform on Nov. 24 against the Kansas City Chiefs following 10 weeks of absence. However, Brooks wouldn't make it much farther into the season. He suffered a devastating non-contact injury that was later evaluated as another ACL tear in his right knee in the team's 22-16 loss versus the Philadelphia Eagles on Dec. 8.

Yeah, sucks it's the same knee.  Tough to come back from two injuries same knee.

Save your money JB!!!  🤘

Goddamn it. Why is it always the good ones who deserve this and work so hard have these set backs.  Fuck 

That's not super surprising as he tore it in December.  He would have been in for a repeat of last year where he wouldn't be ready to come back until the tail end of the 2025 season.  Not a terrible idea to no rush it and give him plenty of time to recover after back to back tears.

Especially given he’s torn that ACL twice now

this sucks 

hopefully he makes it back to UT as a grad assistant or something 

This doesn't (necessarily) mean he's done and PUP list means he still gets his base pay. A full year+ of recovery is a good idea at this point. They drafted Etienne so if JB needs to move on in a year hopefully he's back to as close to 100% as possible.  And Carolina isn't exactly the cream of the crop franchise- wise anyway and a clean start elsewhere might help also.

I really hope he gets back to where he was. He would be an animal in the league. 

Hopefully he makes it back to have some kinda NFL career.  The way he dominated in high school was beyond impressive, he single handily took Hallettsville to the state championship game and then lost it in overtime on a trick play that was thrown to the receiver he was covering and he didn’t think the play started until after a couple seconds.  He had 3,530 yards and 62 rushing TD’s his senior year.  

I’d love to see Sark offer him a  GA coaching slot if he can’t make it back to the field in the NFL.  He and guys like J Whit are perfect role models for small school Texas kids who aspire to make it to the power programs who have to overcome all the hurdles out there in the recruiting world which is primarily getting noticed since a lot of the focus is on the larger schools in the metro areas.  And now with NIL and the transfer portal it makes this even more difficult.
