Wow he broke his femur. I thought it was a knee dislocation from replays.

A non-contact femur break? How does that happen?

[Bolt-O]

oh wow, that was potentially a life threatening injury, and very strange, no real hard contact. For him, I hope the doctors get that fixed right.

When they aren't brought back, like Ingram and Hayward. Probably Lamp and maybe Feeney & Tevi.
Ballage, Badgely and whoever else.

Pretty long list...some of these guys will be back.

You took the question right out of my mind.

I watch these videos often. This guy breaks it down if you don't mind seeing the injuries in slow mo.
There are a bunch of them from all sports.

Interesting, that was my second thought, was there something wrong with his femur to begin with? My first was WOW I cant believe his Tibia/Fibia didn't blow out before the femur.

It reminded me of Marion Butts. He fractured his femur at Florida St, he probably would have gone a few rounds higher if he was healthy in college. But he came back to have a decent career as a RB for a couple of seasons for us.
