Arthur Brown had Sports Hernia Surgery

[scrock]

Per NFL.com

 

They say he will be out 4 to 6 weeks but coach says he'll be ready to go for training camp.

 

Just get your body right for the regular season.

 

That's all the matters.

 

....repost? if so I didn't see it, i did look

At least he didn't fall down the stairs.  

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

he'll be ready to go by preseason, phew

[ghost1986]

Just get well, Arthur.

[scrock]

that was my reaction too, i saw Brown out with surgery and I feared the worst

[rmw10]

Might as well get it over with now instead of trying to play through it.

[GrimCoconut]

And now by "prophecy" is turned to reality. Too bad I was never a psychic.

He'll be fine. It's not a serious surgery and it's something many athletes have undergone without much issue.

Wonder is this a known issue hence the draft fall. Well fall in my eyes. Hernias dont haooen overnight, I don't think

Some shoulder injury is apparently what made him fall.

[PurpleCityLights]

Was he practicing when this injury happen?

Sports hernias can happen anytime and you may not know it. Men are especially susceptible. He probably worked out too hard and weakened the muscles and practiced too hard which caused the onset in camp thus leading to him having the surgery after camp.

He would have been evaluated by the Ravens doctors and wouldn't have been advised to participate in the rookie camp if he had the injury before the rookie camp.

This is not warm and fuzzy info, but at least he is getting the surgery in time to be ready for spring training. We are going to need him to be ready against the Broncos!

Haha exactly what I said to myself when I heard it today.

I think he'll be fine.

[CalvinSmoke]

it's fine. Torrey had this procedure last year.

[scrock]

Some players have played through sports hernia injuries in the past, I can't remember his name off the top of my head but a year or so ago one of our very own Ravens played with a sports hernia all year

 

was it Mason? ...idk

[SecretAgentMan]

He's going to get faster?

 

*faints*

[Ravenseconbeast]

if the procedures goes bad, he needs to get to a different doctor for it.

 

my dad had a hernia surgery 2 years back b/c the mesh(new plastic wall that prevents intestines to drop down to your groin) was too stiff and ripped through.

Jimmy Smith middle of last season

[NaveSenrag]

Jimmy Smith middle of last season

Because that's something we all want to remember.

[scrock]

Jimmy Smith middle of last season

 

yeah that's right...him too

[scrock]

Because that's something we all want to remember.

 

yeah there have been guys who can tough it out and still perform

 

dont give up on Jimmy Smith guys, if he can stay healthy which was his problem in both his first two years then he can get reps, in game reps and build his confidence, a CB with no confidence is an ugly thing to see...

 

remember his play in the AFCCG in NE the year before? he was a beast and made a spectacular play on a tipped ball for the INT, and he also saved us the SB this year....holding or no holding, he made the plays

[Purple Nurple]

The nfln ticker just said he's down 4-6 months according to the Baltimore Sun.

If anyone calls that holding, they need an eye check. That's just good, quality press coverage.
