I really hate that for Chubb. Hate to see great players (or anyone for that matter) get injured like that. Seems like GA is snake bitten with there star RB's.

I hope he makes a full recovery. It still bothers me that Marcus Lattimore never got to have a successful NFL career.

Damn. Stay positive and work thru it Nick. You have a long and fruitful NFL career ahead of you.

Chubb is the best back we will face all year. If he can get well he is going to be a great one. Glad he had the insurance policy and hope the coverage isn't needed

dang that's not good. Hope he heals quickly and has success in his future. I feel bad for the guy; it's a sad part of football

There are only 4 ligaments in the knee, LCL, MCL, PCL and ACL. I would be surprised if he tore his MCL as that usually occurs when the knee is bent sideways, which would mean he tore PCL, LCL and ACL. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Georgia confirms Nick Chubb will undergo surgery

Good news. For those that cannot get to the link:

The University of Georgia athletic department has confirmed that sophomore running back Nick Chubb will need surgery and is out for the rest of the 2015 season. Chubb suffered a “significant” knee injury on the first play from scrimmage against Tennessee on Saturday -- one UGA Senior Associate Athletic Director for Sports Medicine Ron Courson says caused damage to “multiple ligaments and cartilage.” The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is not included in those damaged ligaments.

Courson also confirmed, however, that there was no nerve or arterial damage in the knee. Chubb is currently in the hospital for evaluation on that injured left knee and he should undergo surgery in the next couple of weeks.

Courson says that a full recovery is expected. Chubb’s 2015 season ends with him racking up 747 yards and seven touchdowns in five games.

Add the newly refound ALL. There is new research that involves this band of tissue that spans the tibia and femur. It's amazing how far sports medicine has come. Good luck Chubb.

Hate the injury for the young man but very glad to read a full recovery is expected. Granted I don't see them saying anything else this early but still good to read
