Report: Von Miller dodges ACL tear, out indefinitely with other knee damage

So, he has meniscus tear… 6 weeks would be Jan-08, which is week 18.

Maybe he makes it back for the playoffs.

What Is the Recovery Time for a Meniscus Tear Without Surgery?​

Meniscus tears are the most frequently treated knee injuries. Recovery will take about 6 to 8 weeks if your meniscus tear is treated conservatively, without surgery. The time varies, depending on:
  • the type and severity of the tear
  • how long your symptoms persist
  • your lifestyle
  • your age
The meniscus is a C-shaped band of cartilage that goes around the knee joint and cushions the junction of your thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia). There’s an inner (medial) meniscus and an outer (lateral) meniscus.

Meniscus tears can occur at any age. Younger people, especially athletes, are likely to have a sudden meniscus injury. Older people are likely to have meniscus damage related to degeneration from wear-and-tear.

Complex meniscal tears usually require surgery.

Today, we had two players on offense left who were starters week 1. Havenstein and Higbee. Unreal.

Henderson started week 1 for those thinking Akers.

McCaffrey has patellar tendinitis. He wore a strap on it vs the Saints. This won’t go away during the season.

Jumper's knee. That strap does little to nothing, which is more appropriate for IT band injuries. He's better off wearing a sleeve, but that would slow him down and limit his cutting ability.

He'll need to get PRP during the off-season for any pain reduction and swelling. I think all Ram fans are familiar with one of our former players who went through that ailment. The outcome is not positive.
