According to the local sports talk, Taysom injury was another Lisfranc injury this time on his Left foot (At BYU it was the right foot).
Interesting injury, never had one but from what I read it is extremely painful because every movement of the foot involves the mid section of the foot.
I’m pretty sure he isn’t ready to retire. For him, the Saints are done for the year and he just got a huge contract. He will recover and be ready to go by next year 99-1
I don’t either, but man he seems to attract injuries like people catches colds OR as my dad would say “If I did not have bad luck, I would have no luck at all”
I will say this, after having feet problems myself (left foot had to be reconstructed), having feet injuries is not something that can be healed quickly. Granted this guys have a lot more available to them than I did to recover. But from my orthopedic doctor comments “It takes years to fully recover”.
I hope he does heal and move forward, I enjoy watching him play in both Green Bay and with the Saints.
Having run half and full marathons, I’ve experienced numerous injuries. I had plantar fasciitis twice and shin fractures more times than I can count. I must say since I quit running and took up biking, my lower body health is much better. Hill is a very rare athlete that excels at everything connected with football. I dare say, he could be a good linebacker if he chose to. I’ve enjoyed watching him, but someday enough will be enough and it will be time to get out without long term effects from your injuries. I worry about concussions more than anything
The latest injury setback for quarterback Taysom Hill — a Lisfranc injury to his left foot — is expected to require multiple surgeries, New Orleans Saints coach [Sean Payton told reporters] Monday.
The American Journal of Sports Medicine outlined what kind of recovery time could lie ahead for Hill: “NFL players who underwent surgery to repair a Lisfranc injury missed an average of 10 games, though were sidelined an average of 11.6 months
Add to this he had a concussion, and various other injuries this week
He will be back…It’s not up to you even though we know you have the propensity to control other people’s lives. Just the Democrat Party way of doing things. I get it.
Lol-you have to admire his drive, but there are far more important things in his life than athletics, namely his wife and child. I believe he is 31 now, so after this new contract is done, I expect him to hang it up for good. His Swiss knife skills probably hurt his chances of an extended stint as an NFL regular QB. Smart guy and a great representative for the church ala Steve Young and a host of others
Taysom Hill a quitter? Nah!!! But, he needs to stay healthy to enjoy outdoors activities for the rest of his life it’s very important. If I were him yes step away NFL soon.
Taysom, already, is going to have a tough physical life when he is 45 years old or older. The injuries come back to bite you whether because of football or wrestling (in my case). My legs from hips down are a mess.
I don’t know. I’ve had 7 knee injuries and 3 surgeries all before I was 35. Many other injuries as well. I’ve been doing my Kung Fu ever since. I occasionally have things pop up like twinges in the knees or back. But still get in the gym 3 days a week. I’m 68 now. It doesn’t get easier for sure. But you have to keep doing what you can.
