Boldin Injured (1 Viewer)

Hope its not a serious injury but not knowing the extent of the injury and his rehab time begs the questions:Who will move up the depth chart? Bryant Johnson? Can somebody please tell me his pup status ??Can not find details on him ...Freddie Jones value would also shoot up as a decent outlet now that Boldin is (temporarily) outUpdates on B Johnson would be great - any more updates on Boldin?

 
Cardinals | Boldin Headed for Further Examination Tue, 10 Aug 2004 16:23:15 -0700Updating previous reports, Mike Jurecki, of KDUS Sports Radio, reports Arizona Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin (knee) is headed to Phoenix to meet with team doctor Russell Chick Tuesday, Aug. 11, to go over his medical tests and further evaluate MRI results. -----------

 
I'm not a doctor, nor did I stay at a holiday inn express last night, but it sounds like a meniscus problem.

In Brief: Meniscal tears are very common sports injuries. Typical symptoms include pain, catching, and buckling. Signs on physical exam include joint-line tenderness, effusion, and, possibly, a click when the knee is taken through full range of motion. MRI is often needed to confirm tears and differentiate pain from that caused by other injuries such as articular cartilage damage. Treatment comprises physical therapy and rest, partial meniscectomy, or, in special instances, surgical repair. Therapeutic goals, which are often achieved, are to restore a high level of pain-free function and to prevent premature joint degeneration.

Knee meniscal tears are among the most common injuries seen in sports medicine. Twisting motions with the knee flexed, which are common in sports, place high stresses on the menisci. Many times the injury occurs when the athlete attempts a pivot; contact with another player typically does not occur, nor does lunging or landing awkwardly. A single "wrong step" is sufficient.

Meniscal tears among active patients are clinically significant on two counts. First, they cause pain, mechanical symptoms such as catching or locking, and effusion. Even if athletes can continue to play, they are rarely at top form with a tear. Second, healthy menisci are needed to prevent damage and degeneration of the joint. Thus, even if the patients are able to ignore symptoms, they should be dissuaded from doing so, especially if the tear is repairable. (emphasis added)

I apologize if this was already covered.

Do you go to children's hospitals and steal their candy?Quit begging for attention. It's unbecoming.
 
Hey guys - for what its worth - profootballtalk.com is just reporting that Boldin's injury is not serious and that he will only be out a few weeks. Take it with a grain of salt as their "sources" have been dead wrong in the past. however, as a Boldin owner I'll cling to anything positive right now!

Check it out if interested - just posted a few minutes ago!

Hell, at this point if I heard that he would miss six regular season games, I'd take it.Let's hope this report is accurate.

That is good news for Boldin owners, but if memory serves, they said the same thing about Edge before it was determined to be worse than initially reported.

I was going to say the same thing...Didn't we go almost a week with Edge and a "sore knee" before we found out it was major?

From what Iv'e read I would think the chances of Boldin tearing an ACL while barely jogging are pretty slim. I think it will be fine after some rest, atleast I hope. :mellow:

More than that IIRC - it was like three weeks or something like that before the team admitted it was torn and his season was over.

I believe what PFT wrote was "the cards HOPE at this point this injury is not serous and worst case scenario he'll only miss a few weeks"I didnt remember them professing to know what the actual extent of his injury was when i read that article this AM.Just wanted to get this out there before people start busting on PFT if Boldin is indeed seriously injured.
Sorry Diesel but PFT went a little further out on a limb than you thought - no using the word "hope" as you can see below. This is why they get reamed if their Source is wrong - which has happened (although I "hope" not this time!). Not from the Cards but a league source from whatever that means. "A league source tells us that the knee injury suffered by Cardinals receiver Anquan Boldin on Tuesday is not serious, and that the AP 2003 offensive rookie of the year will be sidelined only for a couple of weeks."
 
A bit of information on the "locking" issue:I've had lots of problems with my knees over the years and a cause of a knee locking can be simply that there is a "loose body" (piece of torn cartilege) that got into the knee joint.Yes, it can be very painful and CAN cause the knee to swell up a bit, but is relatively minor, in the long run.I'm not saying it IS this, just something else that it can be.

Kiddnets, I dont knwo what to say...what I read earlier this morning is not what is up there now. I specifically remember the words "worst-case scenario" being used. Moot point I suppose.Lets hope they are right now that they've involved the ever famous "source".
No problem - Just want the facts straight so we can rip them if it is announced that Boldin is done for the year!BTW - the fact that nothing official has been mentioned yet scares the heck out of me and makes me think the worst - in this day and age of technology, there is little doubt they know exactly what it is - you don't have a problem releasing quick "he's ok" news - but want to be double and triple checked when it is "he's done" news! Just my doom and gloom forecast as I just traded for the guy!

YahooBy MEL REISNER, AP Sports WriterAugust 11, 2004FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) -- Arizona wide receiver Anquan Boldin, last season's offensive rookie of the year, underwent arthroscopic surgery Wednesday after tests found torn cartilage in his right knee. Coach Dennis Green called the injury ``a slight tear'' and said Boldin should be able to return within weeks, suggesting he would be ready for the regular-season opener at St. Louis on Sept. 12. The Cardinals start their exhibition schedule Saturday at Minnesota----------------------------------------------------------Cardinals | Boldin Under the Knife - from www.KFFL.comWed, 11 Aug 2004 12:14:31 -0700Mike Jurecki, of KDUS Sports Radio, reports Arizona Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin (knee) is having his knee scoped Wednesday, Aug. 11, due to a tear in his meniscus. The early prognosis appears that he'll miss a few weeks, but more will be known following the operation, which will be performed by team Dr. Russell Chick.
