Ryan Grant - Bruised kidney (1 Viewer)

Does anyone know the outlook on such an injury for a running back? I am sure there are varying degrees of this injury which would make a big difference, however... I was just wondering if there are any previous cases of this happening in the NFL That we can use as a gauge.

 
Reminds me of hearing about Al Harris' ruptured spleen. Just sounds excruciatingly painful.
I agree. It sounds horrible, and I can't see how a running back in the NFL can make a quick reovery from a bruised kidney. I would imagine that there is a very real danger of critical injury.

From 2010, i think:

San Francisco 49ers outside linebacker Ahmad Brooks will be out at least two weeks because of a lacerated kidney.

Brooks was hurt during Friday's morning practice. The injury originally was diagnosed as a bruised rib before tests revealed more extensive damage Saturday.

 
Marques Colston: Bruised Kidney Won't Keep Him Out of Opener - 9/6/2010 1:44:20 PM

Update:

Colston, who took a hit in the Saints' preseason finale that bruised his kidney, said he's fine and added he should be 100 percent for the team's opener against the Vikings on Thursday, Jeff Duncan of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

 
Ian Johnson - RB - Boise St:

In 2007, Johnson was again a first-team All-WAC selection. He missed two games with a bruised kidney, but still led the Broncos with 207 attempts for 1,041 yards (5.0 avg) and 16 touchdowns, ranking third in the conference with an average of 94.64 yards per game. He also hauled in a career-high 25 passes for 312 yards (12.5 avg) and a score while amassing 1,353 all-purpose yards.
