Re: New Orleans Saints safety Jairus Byrd has back surgery
 

Why so? There are minor minimally invasive back surgeries done all the time now to remove scar tissue, repair degenerative discs, and such that have near 100% success rates and short recovery times.

To me this sounds like something he has been playing with already at a high level. The alleviation of any existing pain will only improve his play and there is more than enough time for a full recovery.

"Simple disc surgery"

Well, I can say that there is no such thing as "simple disc surgery". I know. I had it back in Novemeber and I am still not at 80%. I understand that he is an athlete. I'm a Soldier. We both have to keep our bodies in shape. But when the Dr has to cut through muscles..... it takes a lot of time for it to heal properly.

Trust me, this isn't "simple". This isn't a good thing to have done three months before a season.

Re: New Orleans Saints safety Jairus Byrd has back surgery
 

I doubt that you had exactly the same surgery that Byrd had. There actually are "simple disc surgeries" that are minimally invasive that avoid damage to soft tissues, that have near 100% success rates, and full recovery times of a month or so in average patients, not in athletes.

Back surgery is no fun.

Re: New Orleans Saints safety Jairus Byrd has back surgery
 

Which sounds like exactly what this is, if people read the interview with SP he basically said;

If this were the regular season, he would have treatment on it and wouldn't miss a beat, but because its Late May-Early June it makes perfect sense to get it fully cleared up altogether

Stop overreacting people, you think we would have given him all that money if we didn't know every single thing about him physically

$56 million investment and has back surgery before he steps foot on the practice field. Not sure why anyone wouldn't be at least a tad bit concerned.
