Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff
I had a torn rotater cuff and labrum 7 years ago and it still hurts like hell if IG lift something wrong. Granted I didnt have the access to the kind of medical staff he does, but its no joke. I have said for years that Payton has leaned way to heavily on the pass for Drew to be able to play into his late 30s. A running game would have gone a long way extending his career.

Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff
It reportedly happened towards the end of last season too. If he couldnt heal from that during an entire offseason then it doesnt look good for him healing in time to play again.

Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff
I suspected he didn't start or play much in the preseason for a reason. But still we won't know anything for another 48 hours due to treatments he's getting - probably cortisone shot or something.

Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff
My guess is we are waiting 48 hours for the swelling to go down so they can get a better look and see if there's not a more serious injury hidden there.
