Bowers may need tightrope surgery and could miss the rest of the regular season. You knew it was coming at some point with the way he plays.

Wow, that’s a major loss, he’s as great a tight end as there is……..which begs the question, why didn’t he go to TE University, Iowa? 🙂
That sucks. Great player and sounds like he's a good kid, too.
That sucks. He made the QB look great in the AU game. Dude has suction cup hands and load to bring down.
I don’t know. Florida, Mizzou, Tennessee and even Ole Miss could all be trouble.
I used to sell that- if he’s out the rest of the season, it won’t be because of the procedure. It’ll be because he chose to remain out.
And I say that knowing nothing about the guy other than him being a fierce competitor, but if I was in position to be a top 5 pick, I’d certainly weigh my options.
Just to show there’s no hard feelings I’ll Amazon Prime you a new high end butt bong. You’ll have to supply your own keg tho. 🤣
I sent him one last year that plays Rocky Top as you pour.
Jalin Hyatt and Josh Dobbs single-handedly sodomized the Vol nation last year during that particular track meet.
That's what they said when Tua went through it and I recall Pops saying that was pretty typical.
I think Pops said it cuts the normal recovery time in half or there abouts.
@GwinnettDawg this is correct.
Flexible fixation with tightrope (suture) vs rigid fixation with screws.
Probably a little “worse” for Bowers since he’s a big guy that has to cut, but I’d be shocked if he didn’t come back for postseason play.
Assuming there is a postseason for Georgia. But it looks as if the SECG would be the target.
Crazy once the standard is set this is the type of shit we “settle” for.
Feels good to be football royalty.
Pops, the device is left in permanently, correct? This (of course) came after my radiology career but in reading about it I wouldn't think they would go in later to remove anything...
Yessir, the syndesmosis is stabilized with nothing but suture. Braided polyethylene I think. It’s been a minute since I worked in ortho.
There are bioabsorbable screws now, but it used to be done with metal which you probably remember. Same as ACL and other tendon injuries. No thanks.
There’s not a more innovative orthopedic company out there that’s dedicated to sports medicine.
As you so wisely said when we lost the two WRs who sodomized UGA and lost the NC. If bowers missed our NC game you lose that one too. Great players make a difference. Just plug in another 5 star… and get more 5 star players.
