Although Tigers performance is made all the more remarkable by his physical condition, to say that he has been forthcoming about his injuries stretches credibility. He tore the ACL one year ago and the stress fracture was discovered 2 weeks ago yet not disclosed until it was clear that he could no longer play. Several physicians that I have as students have speculated that while under normal circumstances, he should be able to come back from this injury, there are no guarantees, especially since this knee has been operated on multiple times.
What if his decision to play, however spectacular, has jeopardized his career and his chance at Jack's record?
