Obviously, this is a scary situation for Knox, although he has full movement.

that was ugly.

 

[Fightin Donkey]

Thoughts and prayers to him.

Wow.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Man that is gruesome to watch.

Have NEVER seen anyone have their back hyper-extended so far.

Hope he has a full recovery.

Wow that looked bad.

:this: That looked painful. I'm guessing he does a lot of yoga to even be limber enough to bend that way.

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Absolutely brutal. Here's thoughts and prayers to him -- he's a hell of a gamer, and that was a nasty, nasty injury to sustain. So happy to hear that he isn't paralyzed or worse.

I'm not easily disturbed by stuff like that but wow that was violent. I hope he's okay.

Brutal. If he wasn't so flexible, we might be looking at the first life-threatening injury on the field in a long time.

is he going to recover in time: http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2012/02/johnny_knox_on_pace_to_return_.html

that link says it is, but Weems was brought in for a reason. Maybe they will have Knox focus on offense. Seems like he could be perfect complement to Marshall and that would help his value some because he should be able to smoke single coverage deep. With Forte and Marshall, teams will have to leave him alone.
