Alabama sophomore cornerback Eddie Jackson has a torn ACL ... That's a big loss. :( :( :( Title: Re: "Report: Alabama cornerback Eddie Jackson has a torn ACL" Post by: 2Stater on April 07, 2014, 07:47:37 AM Well, darn! :(

Injuries happen and that is why we recruit depth at every position. When a guy goes down it creates an opportunity for the next guy in line.
Good luck and a speedy recovery to EJ. Any idea on what his recovery time will be?

My daughter tore her ACL back in the fall about a week before the first basketball game of the season. Had surgery in November just before Thankgsiving. Her Dr said that the recovery to get back to playing shape is at least 9 months. Closer to 1 year in some cases. With the strength and conditioning program at Bama I would say he could possibly burn his medical redshirt in the Iron bowl if needed...Good luck and a speedy recovery to EJ.

If Jackson is unable to return for the regular season, a medical redshirt is possible. I think 5 months is a bit optomistic.

Any idea on what his recovery time will be? I thought 9 months was the normal time. He will redshirt next year. He could be ready to get some practice reps in by December during bowl practice. Vinny Sunseri hurt his during the A&M game and they said he could have played in the bowl game but they did not want to push it. Some heal faster/slower than others.

"We have a great medical staff here and he will have the full support of everyone in the organization as he goes through the rehab process. We are confident Eddie will make a full recovery and be ready to go this fall." http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2014/04/alabama_coach_nick_saban_confi.html Title: Re: "Report: Alabama cornerback Eddie Jackson has a torn ACL" Post by: McBaman on April 07, 2014, 07:02:10 PM Well...."ready to go this fall..." but when this fall? Week one or week six?
Definitely a big bummer but wish a good and speedy recovery for Eddie. We need ya man! Title: Re: "Report: Alabama cornerback Eddie Jackson has a torn ACL" Post by: cbbama99 on April 07, 2014, 07:31:34 PM Dadgumit!! >:( >:(
