Confirmed, per source, Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill had a posterior SC (sternoclavicular) dislocation which was successfully reduced in the hospital. No surgery required. He will stay overnight.
Tyreek Hill had a sternal clavicular joint injury which is where your clavicle comes into your sternum. If it goes posteriorly, like Hill’s did, it an become a medical issue. Hill didn’t have any issues, but he was still transported to a local hospital. Obviously be safe.
Depending on the severity, based on that other site, it can kill you if it tears blood vessals. Doesn't sound like that was the case but sounds like dude could have been seriously injured. [Reply]
So to recap in non-medical terms... Tyreek has a separation near his shoulder area that created an urgent medical situation because of the injury’s location near major blood vessels and his heart/lungs?
Sounds like an injury my ex wife's friend sustained in a car accident they were in.
Long story short its a clavicle bone dislocation rather than break which can actually cut off or restrict blood flow to the heart. Once its relocated there really isn't much else needed. [Reply]

So Jones should be fined for tackling a guy the right way, but that one Jag douche fucking grabs Mahomes facemask as he was sliding and it's all good? Maybe Files shouldn't be such a fucking pussy. [Reply]
Posterior dislocation of the SCJ can be associated with life threatening complications such as neurovascular, tracheal and oesophageal injuries. Due to the high mortality associated with such complications, these injuries need to be recognised acutely and managed promptly. Investigations such as X-ray imaging are poor at delineating anatomy at the level of the mediastinum and therefore CT imaging has become the investigation of choice. Due to its rarity, the current guidance on how to manage acute and chronic dislocations is debatable. [Reply]

If he doesn’t miss any time with an injury like THAT, I’m totally sold that it’s our destiny this year to win it all. [Reply]
