Press Release: STATEMENT FROM JAMES R. ANDREWS, M.D., ANDREWS INSTITUTE REGARDING PROCEDURE PERFORMED ON ROBERT GRIFFIN III

[jtpop]

Get well soon, thoughts and prayers are with you RGIII.

[Heavy Jumbo]

That is an unfortunate last name.

Coarticulation is his friend (you don't really pronounce the "d" when saying his name)

Didn't know Dr. Mark Adickers won a Super Bowl playing for the Skins. Who knew.

[Enforcer_FFX]

This was great to see when it was released. Get well, Robert!

[Skinsfan In NM]

Guaranteed RG3 will never be put on the Madden cover! This place will go nuts! Although Megatron may have broken the curse!

He may have broken the curse of the single player stats, how'd this season work out for the lions though. I tell you all now, if they open voting up to the public on who should be on the cover of madden 14 we must all as loyal Redskins fans vote for either a cowboy or midget to be on the cover. Do not let that curse in our house!

Can we get Jerruh Jones on it?

WTF! Medial meniscus in addition to ACL and LCL. The hits keep coming



In a column for FOXSports.com, Dr. Mark Adickes, who performed RG3's first ACL surgery in 2009, writes: "The surgery that Dr. James Andrews performed was a repair of his LCL, a revision reconstruction of his ACL and a repair of his medial meniscus. All three surgeries are significant when done alone. When done together, they comprise a major surgery that leads to an extremely painful and arduous recovery."

At least RGIII is chomping @ the bit for rehab!

[Dirt]

Yea, people think theses athletes are just in the gym as usual for these rehabs, maybe go a little harder in the offseason.

Rg3 is going to be in excruciating pain for awhile, and he's going to, basically, purposefully put himself in more pain by rehabbing as much as possible. No time off for him. No summertime fun, no time with fiancee, nothing. And that's to hopefully be back in time for the season. I wouldn't want that responsibility...

We better be thankful for this dude.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

Yes you should! I'm a fan of the Cincinnati Bengals and I have been praying for RG3's recovery. His rehabilitation reminds me of what former Bengal quarterback Carson Palmer had to go through in 2006 although Carson's injury was due to a dirty Steeler defensive lineman trying to tear his leg off at the knee. You have a very special quarterback there in Washington and I do hope he recovers well. RG3 is a credit to the game, a tough competitor, and a true gentleman. All of the Cincinnati players were extremely impressed with him after the Bengals - Redskins game this season and it seemed he had something nice to say to everyone after the game. Congratulations on making the postseason and maybe in 2013 neither the Bengals nor the Redskins will be "one-and-done" in the playoffs. You have a great organization and a loyal fan base.

Appreciate the thoughts, and you guys are easily the best team in Ohio to root for. I never wanted to lose Lewis and I think he is a good coach, things are looking up there. Good Luck.

Can we get Jerruh Jones on it?

But Jerry isn't a curse to us Redskins fans. He is to Cowboy fans but I personally love Jerry in charge of the Cowboys.

[Timmy Smith]

Oh god, I didn't know he had a third procedure, on the meniscus, too. Ughhhhh.
