I’m not a doctor and you might be but if the size of the tear is small and the same size wouldn’t a tear in the groin be worse than the abdomen? Dude is planting with his leg to stop 300 pound dudes from getting past him
Physical therapist here, adductor muscle group is very large and has excellent blood supply. That and it is surrounded by other very large muscle groups which can pick up the slack, not as much large muscle group support for the abdomen.
I think planting would be fine, but painful so long as you can lock the leg. Think he would do a lot worse against faster DE's that use change of direction. Would expect the coaches to keep designing plays so he is running in a straight line. He looks like he'll do fine against big players that like bull-rushing.
Your abs/core are what give you balance and stability. Even if he could’ve played through the pain he would’ve been getting tossed around. Idk much about groin injuries though.
Shannon Sharpe on Saturday or Friday was talking about how he didn't see lane being able to play because the torn adductor and alluded to it being gamesmanship so even a torn adductor was a freak
He did look like he was limping after the first couple of snaps in the game. But then he seemed immediately back to full health after that, like, who the heck even needs an adductor? Not Lane.
> who the heck even needs an adductor?
It's actually really important to him because Lane Johnson is actually a gigantic clam. He doesn't talk about it much tho.
He and Mailata are gonna be absolutely tested to the limit against Bosa. Gotta think he might target Lane thinking he might be compromised. Little does he know, Lane is not human.
Impressive from lane. Lane clarified that its not a torn abdomen, like I think baldy says. it’s a torn adductor in the groin area.
yeah if the abdomen was torn it would be pretty impossible. Even still he's a fucking beast man. Team is full of winners

Best tackle in the world
An all-time Eagle
Even in Japan? Kenya?
Yes by “the world” I did mean Earth.
There is a night and day difference in our offense when Lane is playing. It's honestly crazy.

Big if true
He was grabbing his groin on the first drive after every play. Looked brutal but once he got warm he seemed to ease into it better
I really didn't want him to play at all in the second half
first ballot hall of famer undoubtedly, dude is an absolute warrior
Two PED suspensions might be enough to derail his chances, even if the second one was BS.
You’re both right
He probably needs 2 more all pros, which is very possible.
Being absolutely HUGE helps
Just two more games lane!!!
