Lions QB Matthew Stafford Dislocated His Kneecap

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported on Sportscenter that Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has a subluxation of his kneecap -- aka dislocation -- during the 4th quarter of the team's 48-24 loss to the Bears today. The Lions are hoping the damage is not severe and he will be further evaluated on Monday. His kneecap was popped back in on the sidelines but he did not return to the game after the injury.

yuck, I bet that didn't feel great.

 

That doesn't sound good at all.

 

Ouch...

 

They are one of the most disgusting sights ever if they are bad

once saw someone with their knee cap almost floating about the side of his leg

 

^^^^^ That is disturbing. Hope he'll be okay soon.

 

....how do you dislocate our kneecap ?

but from the sounds of it he is fine and should play next week...ya him he gets the steelers

 

:icon_cry: ...just thinking about it.

Hope the kids ok!

 

Hopefully for him he doesn't miss time...

 

Ouch!

 

yep, i've heard a dislocated kneecap is very painful. it just floats around in there and every time it moves a little it hurts like hell.

 

That's the kind of injury that could linger for a while. Being his right knee is only going to make it worse.

Shame, the kid was doing OK out there...
