Jackson update?

Kid looks pretty thin. This is the reason I think Joe starts next year and Nico sits. Tayven and Nico Duke it out the next year. Nico needs a year in our weight room and some meat and taters. Our offense needs a qb that is mobile and can run some imo. Besides, you do not want a freshman let alone a true freshman starting for you in the sec. Regardless of how much potential is there

If it was a serious injury, wouldn't we have an official update by now? I would think a broken collarbone would have been important enough to acknowledge ? I’m guessing it’s not a break and that he will be out a couple of games with shoulder soreness. Hopefully we wouldn’t NEED him to play regardless.

The mechanism of injury certainly points toward this being a clavicular fracture. If so, it rarely requires surgical repair and even if it is on his non-throwing side he'll be sidelined likely for the season. Now I have been retired for 8 years now so they may be doing things differently. With all that being said an AC strain is still a possibility but the way he reached for his clavicle makes that the most likely injury.

If it is a collarbone, this could present him future options. He could redshirt with medical considerations, which would make him eligible for another redshirt season if he’s ever reduced to playing less than 4 games due to injury. One would never intentionally want said option but football happens.

@IndianaVol followed Jackson closely in HS. Maybe he can comment on whether he was injury prone. I seem to recall him missing part of his junior year due to injury, but don’t remember any details.
Yes, Jackson did miss a week or two in his Jr. year (had to go back and find earlier posts).
That was an ankle and by all accounts he was held out of some games that were certain wins against lesser talent to give proper rehab time...no surgery, just rehab.

Other than that, the guy has been healthy and doesn't seem to be injusry prone at all.
Kind of surprised he got injured on that play as he was known in high school for being mobile and gaining a few yards after contact.
It looked to me as one of those true fluke football, ground contact, injuries.

Collar bones are not bad injuries. I've had both a broken collar bone and an AC separation, and the AC separation hurt a lot more and took about twice as long to fully heal. Both injuries only kept me out for about 4 weeks though.
speak for yourself, I broke mine and it came completely out of line almost 2 inches, still can see an indention in front of my shoulder where there shouldn't be one. Required surgery to repair with brace and screws and cadaver's tissue.

Weren’t leeches the first course of treatments back then?

I don't know about the cadaver tissue, nor did I measure my break, but it was bad enough to require a metal plate too. If you still got an indention, it sounds like you picked the wrong orthopedic surgeon.

Thanks for the good info. Someone else had suggested that he might have had injury issues in HS, but a week or two with an ankle doesn’t seem to be a big deal. I hope he recovers quickly from what sounds like a fractured collar bone.

IF.... it is a clavicular fracture it might be treated with non invasive healing or operated and stabilized with a metal plate. Depends on location and whether the fragments are displaced, etc.

Yep. Probably shuts it down for the year if it’s a break or even an AC sprain imo.

I think he was referring to them passing people on the shoulder, obviously in a hurry, escorted by law enforcement. A broken collarbone doesn't lead to that kind of transport.

I’m well aware of what a broken collarbone requires. My post was a hypothetical question of sorts. His reply was like my wife reading through the lines looking for something that’s not there. A bit annoying but no biggie.

Kept the ball for a 9 yard gain. Juked two guys out of their shoes. After being tackled, he was reaching under his shoulder pads and had to leave the game. Looked like collar bone to me.
Yeah thats the first thing I said to my wife is that it looked like he may have broken his collarbone...I hope not.
