I think this timing is pretty perfect for him. If the Jets lose their next 3 games he can just go back on IR and keep rehabbing for next season. If they manage to win 2 of them they can evaluate based on where he’s at and their road to a wild card game. I don’t think he’ll end up coming back, but mainly because I don’t think he’ll risk playing in games that ultimately don’t mean anything.

@VoodooLegacy369 6 месяцев назад

I ruptured my left Achilles one week prior to Aaron. I chose to go the nonsurgical route for recovery. This week I was able to ruckmarch for a fairly long flat distance without much difficulty. However, like the good Doc said, that eccentric load bearing is still absent. I cannot jump yet and to be able to run again will take another few months of persistent physical therapy. In addition the muscular dystrophy is absolutely legit. So even if Aaron can move laterally and throw the ball, as can I, I am worried for him because there is no way he is at the athletic level of a healthy football player yet.

For me, I find the whole situation fascinating on multiple levels. Not only is this causing a buzz in the football world and circle of sports injuries followers but this has expanded outside of football into the general population and has their attention. I don’t know if Aaron ever wanted to be the one who was at the center of it but now that he is he has been more than transparent and forthcoming about many of the details. I’ve not seen such granular remarks and commentary. And the fact of who he is that has elevated this whole thing. Him returning is part of it(that’ll be sweet) but he already has moved the needle. I agree that he is not everyone else. Getting back is his job and he has the means. But to be the watermark is pretty cool. Thanks for your honest perspective 🤘

@anasbadran8236 6 месяцев назад

Thank you Dr. Sutterer for providing the holistic and mindful perspective on what the Speed Bridge Achilles repair entails and how Rodgers' recovery and function may look like in the coming weeks. It's refreshing to hear this sort of opinion when there's so much hyperbole put out there by the national sports media. It's still great to learn that such advances have occurred in orthopedics and sports medicine, and I wonder if these options were discussed with other athletes who suffered an Achilles tendon rupture such as KD. Also, I wonder if the procedure will gain popularity among future injured players or if drawbacks exist that will make people stick to the more traditional repair method.

Not sure it is real smart to risk injuring it again this early but I understand he is not getting any younger and he only has a few more rolls of the dice to get another ring. This year he needs a real lucky roll if he can make it back. If anyone can do it, Aaron Rodgers would be that guy.

In my senior year of high school football, I tore my acl and my meniscus via noncontact hyper extension on a grass field. I then had surgery 3 weeks later in late September and then my rehab had only taken me to late February. So my return to play was just under 5 and a half months. I had a quad tendon graft and 3 other teammates had the same injury and surgery, I was the only one to not reinjure my leg or damage my ligament again and that's been the case for the past 7 years. I had a lightning quick return to play compared to all other athletes in my area that had that same injury. I was a 3 sport athlete and came back to play basketball at the end of the season and I competed in track as a hurdler, long distance sprinter, and a discus thrower. I managed to get back to where I was a year prior and hit some PR's. SO it is definitely possible to be on top of your rehab and get back into shape to play, but its tough.

Between having 24x7 constant care and treatment versus the average person seeing a doctor or therapist once or twice during the entire healing cycle, he is also just being the typical tough guy NFL player wanting to get back out there fast - Plus as you said it isn't his plant side and as long as he doesn't run around and stays a statue in the pocket, he might be able to help them in the playoffs. But he is going to have to do a ton of extra work in the off season to get it fully healed if he doesn't end up popping it off again getting tackled while running.

I ruptured my achilles tendon in August 2022 while playing Tennis at the age of 29 and I'm still not back at 100 %. Did not really play that much Tennis this Summer because I still don't fully trust my achilles tendon and I'm still worried that it can tear again. For me it is still fascinating what is achievable in medicine. However, playing in the pocket with the D-Line in front is completely different to throwing passes without worrying about getting sacked.

you mentioned talking to foot and ankle doctors about this, and I just pictured some doctors sitting around like "you keeping up with this aaron rodgers thing" or other injuries in major league sports the same way someone in a fantasy league does

Doc, from what I saw it looked like Cousins had more of the traditional surgery you talked about. Do you know why he’d choose that with this newer method out there? Not thinking he’d be able to return this year since he tore his a lot later than Rodgers, but in order to return quicker for offseason training, etc?

Love these videos, keep an eye on my team the Phoenix suns, that should be an injury content treasure trove... unfortunately! 😞

Love the topic. I think he’ll end up with a flat tire. Thanks for sharing the details about this new surgical technique.

I thing returning would be good if he was a pocket passer, my concern is when he has to scramble to avoid a sack.

Doc, you're very good at emphasizing words like typically during your initial assessments, as with ARod You also emphasize words/phrases like, "idk for sure", "I'm without his actual medical data/inside info type conclusions I personally think Rodgers may be pushing it despite a possible not, as bad a tear as initially reported, etc scenario I mean, except for earlier starts to recovery before the off-season etc... I just don't see the reward outweighing the risks😮
