Merged Becton Injury Thread

Question for anyone who understands knees - does a brace like Becton is wearing help much with dislocated knee caps?  I thought braces like this were mostly to protect things like ACL's.  Not saying it would hurt, but just asking if the brace actually helps Becton given the injury he had.  Thanks.

If it's  the metal brace I wore some 30 years ago, it give you lateral stability. You really have to do something  violent to get hurt, lime getting pancaked by a nearly 300 lb DT.

I hear you, Matt.  I just don't believe we ever got the real story, no matter what they tell fans and the media.

I dont believe we’ve ever gotten the true story on how high maintenance this player truly is either/

This was one of those times the team should have stepped in and rested him. There was no reason to push the knee this early.

He’s been resting for almost a year.

This happened with Gase too against the Broncos. The coaches think he’s full of sh*t. If they didn’t they would have pulled him from practice.

It was rhetorical, lol.

[GangGreened]

Lol so he’s still not “ready?”

You don’t think he’s just repeating what his trainers told him?

I was just enjoying a bowl of words with a delicious sauce when I heard the news.   Hope he's okay.

Your post should go up on the JN banner.  Dead perfect, like Becton's NFL career.

I have rehabbed from major lower body injuries.  You don't  come back 100% from them and it takes years to feel close to a point where you just aren't  thinking about it. My ankle still gives me trouble nearly 40 years after I injured it and I'm  not on a football field trying to push around 300 LB lineman

You're also not 23 with a multi million dollar athletic training program behind you.

Bottom line for me is that from the time of his injury the team has obfuscated WTF was actually going on with Becton.  No way he was ready if that's the knee's reaction off a simple play from scrimmage.   That knee was blown apart more than they ever let on.  Now, Becton gets all the grief from us fans instead of JD, Saleh and the team in general.

I think it's possible that all three of the following are true: 

1. The Jets medical staff are dumb and made a mistake with their initial evaluation and recovery timeline.

2. The injury was much more serious than some want to believe. 

3. Becton has done himself no favors with personal conditioning and has hurt his own recovery time.

I can live with this appraisal.  Nice work, Spoot.

[TheNuuFaaolaExperience]

It is not out of the realm of possibility that Becton never plays another snap of regular season football for the Jets. I wouldn't bet on it, but I am also not going to make this face if it plays out that way.

Experts estimate that for every 1 pound you weigh, your knees feel the force of 3 pounds of pressure when you take a step. —So losing 10 pounds will result in 30 pounds less pressure per knee.

Becton has more pressure on his knees than the San Andreas fault

He was laid up, dogged the rehab, waited too long to try and get back in shape, came in at 397, crash-dieted away 30 pounds and thought he could fake it until he made it.

Rub some dairy queen on it and get your fat ass back out there.

I guess any post where I get serious for a second looks good when compared to the 98% of drivel and dick jokes I post.

I'm sorry, T0m. I was wrong about Becton.

As a 23 year old professional athlete?

Sucks but this team has big plans with or without him.

Not voting on this immediately after the injury report.

I'm a dedicated cynic, and pessimist, but even I am willing to wait for an update before blowing my proverbial brains out over Becton.

Also, the answer is clearly 42.  Duh.

[Saul Goodman]

A better question might be how many games will he complete or finish. He’s played 8 full games out of 34. You sound like a dick by calling out Jet fans because they are doubtful or don’t believe in Becton. 

[Larz]

Don’t know if this is real obviously

I am honestly surprised that more people do not add a K.
