RG3 and His Knee

Because Robert Griffith III had major knee surgery three years ago, it was impossible to tell how badly his knee is really hurt this time around from just one MRI.

The consensus is that he has a partially torn LCL and that he most likely has a torn ACL as well. The debate is if it's partially torn or completely torn. Since that was his previous knee injury, at this point doctors can not tell the extent of his latest injury.

Two partial tears could heal with minor surgery or just time and rehab. Anything other than that could require surgery much like Adrian Peterson's.

Is RGIII's future up in the air? Most certainly.

What Adrian Peterson did to get ready for this season was super-human. That is clearly not the norm.

We'll just have to wait until more doctors and more tests give everyone a clearer picture of the injury, and what they plan to do next.
