I'm tired of everyone asking and speculating . Here's the honest truth .

Key had a torn rotator cuff but it wasn't a full tear. This injury usually happens from overuse of the tendon and constant physical contact to the shoulder socket. Key using that repetitive swim move and ripping motion is strenuous on the socket. This is why he wore the shoulder brace . This injury also usually occurs more in athletes with longer leaner limbs . This is primarily another reason why Key has bulked up to add more muscle and strength to his shoulders .

Next the reason why he delayed surgery because a partially torn rotator cuff can heal on its own but if your shoulder still has an aching pain and weakenss after 3 months, surgery is your best option or that shoulder won't heal properly . A full tear usually takes 6 months to heal. Key had a partial tear and had surgery around late MAY early JUNE so with good care and rehab expect a 3-4month recovery .

Based on what I've calculated Key should be back mid late September.

So he will be back Miss St. or Syracuse .

We can manage relax guys !

I can't take medical advice from a guy who puts a space between the end of sentences and periods.

Makes sense. I had a partially torn rotator cuff and elected physical therapy...never really healed right and hurts to this day.

Well some folks knew this already but others are just being drama queens. The coaches aren't worried one bit and neither am I. Chassion and the crew will be more than adequate, LSU is deep at LB this year so there are no worries. BTW the Buck spot won't be the only position attacking this year. It's going to come from all angles at anytime.

I'm skeptical about everything. The timeline doesn't exactly add up, and neither does Key just dropping from school because he had a torn rotator cuff trying to heal. I'm still holding out hope that he steps on the field against BYU.
