The ambulance is what is scary. They are not usually called out for an ACL injury. Could be a lot worse if nerves were hit or maybe even an artery like mentioned below. Who knows but weird that an ambulance was called. It has to be more than a knee injury.

Not a lot of injuries require an ambulance. Not even an ACL tear. Whatever it is, hope nerve and artery are spared.

Yeah, I can't figure out the ambulance part......

Shit, perhaps there is more to this possibility of nerve or artery damage.

Damn, you hate to see that. Bridgewater was primed to have a huge year and he seems like a good kid, too. Hopefully it's not too serious but it sure doesn't look good. That would be a devastating blow to the Vikings.

I feel bad for the kid, eventhough he's a rival, he seems to have his head on straight

When the story first broke it was, who hit the QB. Non contact so I picture a field full of players with their hands up saying:

Holy fuck- Who was it a few years back that was at risk of losing their leg after a volleyball accident at the pro bowl?

There must have been some serious wreckage with some serious swelling/internal bleeding... to have them react that violently that quickly it cant be good. Fear of compartment syndrome? Rolled up calf or hammy?

Disheartening to hear. I would be pulling for the Vikings to win the division over the Packers again in the event the Bears fall out of contention. Never like to see a young player have his career threatened by injuries like this in any case

It's now official, an MRI has confirmed that #Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater has a torn ACL and will miss the entire 2016 season.

And there you have it...... Hopefully AP will be a mentor to this kid and help him handle this horrible injury. It doesn't have to derail his career, but it could.

That is a Fake account.

Ah, well I can't check twitter here, can only get google searches with twitter information at work. Best I can do if it is fake.
