Was it a pledge related injury?

The Minnesota Sanchize has a nice ring to it.
But holy shit. Hope he'll be OK. I have to wonder if it was a non-contact injury.
EDIT: Nevermind. Saw that it was non-contact. Damn. Feel bad for Teddy.

Are all NFL QBs' bodies made of glass?

When I tore my ACL I screamed bloody murder, asked for an ambulance, and was laughed at by my teammates. Eventually I was helped off the field and given ice and drove myself home.

He was looking really good in their last preseason game, sad to hear.
No, no it doesn't.
That sounds like the reaction when Paul George had that nasty leg break.

As a Bucs fan I was all in on the Freeman hype train lol

I had a meniscus tear that hurt like nothing I've ever felt before, but considering the league where ACL tears are part of the business, this sounds way more significant.
Dislocated knee? Worse?

Condolences to Teddy... hopefully it's nothing that will affect him long term. That said the Vikings are left in good hands under the direction of Joel Stave.
No, no it doesn't.
that sounds exactly like an acl tear

Get healed up Mr. Bridgewater. Feel sorry for the Viking fans, this could be disastrous for their season.
Yes sir.
Yes sir.
Non-contact dislocation though? Must have been the cut of his life (or he tried to stop on a dime).
Sounds like a compound fracture (players freaked out) but that would be unlikely in a non contact. Achilles or Patella tendon ruptures are as sore as anything and the resulting unnatural position of the foot/knee would freak anyone out.

An ACL tear wouldn't make bystanders freak out. The ACL could be torn, but there has to be more to it for players to react the way that they did.
Non-contact, holding knee...yes, it does, but usually an ambulance wouldn't be called for that.

How many ambulances have been called over an acl tear? Sounds more serious than just that.
with Teddy they are a potential SB contender. with shaun hill they won't make the playoffs. could also be players realizing the season is already dead.
but yes it all points to it being very serious
This could have happened to Tyrod Taylor and the Buffalo Bills and I wouldn't have batted a lash.

Crashing this plane... with no survivors!
Oh jeeze, Shaun Hill is their backup?
Jimmy Clausen is probably on a plane to Minneapolis.

Non-contact is one of the worst things to hear about an injury. It almost always means a torn ligament or dislocated knee. Additionally, ambulances aren't called for simple tears even.

Well, we'll find out soon. ACL, fractures could still be season ending.

And it showed up less than 10 minutes after it happened. Someone immediately called 9-1-1, which you wouldn't do for a simple ACL tear while at the stadium.

Awful. Looked pretty good Sunday against the Chargers.
