An AC shoulder injury is one thing, it being in your throwing arm is a different monster.Actually there may have been a decision that he will need surgery at end of year and then the rumor became he is done for year. We have seen many times a player comes back to play and announces will have surgery at end of year. And often when a team is taken out of the Championship race they may have surgery then to heal for draft.
I predict it will be game time decision, if for no other reason than to not allow TN to know.
If it's a torn labrum, he's probably done for the year. I doubt that's the case because they probably would have operated to get him ready for next season. Jonathan Crompton had a torn labrum and had surgery, returning for his Sr. season. Pretty long and painful rehab.I hope he plays but when I saw the replay of the injury that Saturday I thought there was a high probability of a torn labrum.
Even if he plays, one would have to think there would be a lot of pain involved. I can’t see him throwing with the same velocity or accuracy. I think he would be tentative. And what happens when he gets sacked? I could also see a lot of holding penalties because they will want to protect him at all costs.
My mom’s bf’s son’s son (my future step brother’s) son (or my future step nephew) told his uncle (my future step brother-in-law) that his 2nd grade teacher’s wife knows a guy who lives in a trailer park in Tuscaloosa. That guy says that Bryce Young is going to play and he has an Atlanta Braves “A” tattooed on his left shoulder blade. It was supposed to be an Alabama “A” but the artist forgot to add the mullet.*Not an insider

According to some one in the medical field in Nashville, that is connected to Alabama athletics, Young will have to have season ending surgery on his injury.
Do we EVER. When I was a lowly supply supervisor working nights in the OR, my ‘initiation’ was checking an OR suite after a trauma case. The surgeon just happened to leave an amputated leg RIGHT NEXT to the Pyxis cabinet. I guess they thought I would either faint or vomit. Wasn’t even fazed (they didn’t know I was a Navy veteran and had seen worse). They had more success with my successor tho! He DID faint (amputated foot).Health care employees LOVE gallows humor.
