Joeckel to IR: Left Knee Injury Requiring Surgery

The MRI was probably inconclusive on some aspect of it. As in findings "likely show"  and so forth. Probably showed enough to know he will require surgery and be out all year, but not the full extent of things. So they are waiting to do the arthroscopy to give the definitive diagnosis.

 

Quote:@AdamSchefter Jaguars' G Luke Joeckel will undergo knee surgery Thursday for major MCL injury, a meniscus tear and possibly an ACL tear, per @mortreport.


That sucks.
 
Which makes sense. It is actually a fairly common injury. Common enough to have earned the terms "Unhappy triad or "terrible triad" or "horrible triangle". Those are all older terms when it was truly devastating. Luke can still recover from it, especially since he is offensive lineman.
