“It was ruptured,” the 39-year-old quarterback said on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday (November 14). “It was fixed by the best doctor in the land, and my entire focus from September 13 has been rehab and getting back on the field.”
He continued, “Let me just shoot you straight. There’s not a lot of people that have the unique situation that I was in. I got hurt first drive of the season. Don’t want to retire, I want to come back. I have the best doctors in the country. My full-time job is rehab. My mindset from the morning after the injury, before I even got surgery, was I’m going to try to do something that nobody has done before. So I poured my entire energy and research into this.”
So there you have it!
