Sounds like none according to the Sheriff's Dept. He was headed to do a taped training session with Drew Brees and others at the time, may have been running late? [Reply]
Sounds like he also had a fasciotomy due to compartment syndrome. That means that he had so much swelling in the leg, that the swelling was cutting off circulation, so they have to cut open the thick tissue around the muscle to relieve the pressure. This is typically left open for a while so the swelling can go down before they suture it closed
Nasty injury. Comminuted (multiple pieces) open fractures to the tibia and fibula in two separate areas on the same leg
Surgical fixation of the ankle and foot as well.
That leg was mangled, he is lucky to keep it [Reply]

Yeah, according to reports he was going to be about 30 minutes late getting to the training session and was just probably hauling ass & lost control
Given how bad the accident was, he's lucky to be alive. I would say that the Genesis passenger compartment passed the crash test. [Reply]

Yeah depending how bad , artificial ankle or knee could be in his near future.Friend just blew up his knee hitting a rock with his snowmobile, he is 45 will probably see a replacement by the time he his 50.
Since they managed to put in a rod sounds like it wasn’t horrible , broken in 3-4 pieces is not as bad as 15-20 pieces , where they would have need a plate and eleventy billion screws [Reply]
