He definitely didn’t secretly have a torn ligament. That’s not an injury you can hide and attempt to play on.

Not to mention we saw a play where his wrist got fucked. He threw another pass and almost fell over in pain. Then he left the game. His wrist may have been sore before the game but he was not playing through a tear.

I’m no wristologist, but I wonder if perhaps a strain/sprain makes a tear, while still unlikely, more likely to occur?

Strains/sprains are low grade tears.

No, you’re not getting it. Burrow purposefully played fine through the whole week in practice, warmups, and the game (until he got his hand flattened at an awkward angle under himself and a 260 lb linebacker), but only to cover up his wrist injury he wanted to not get seen or treated.

He trusted the compression sleeve to heal him right up instead of medical professionals he’s worked with extensively on multiple occasions

While I agree with you, there’s still no explanation for the video being deleted.

Is this the “but why did Brady trash his phone during deflategate” argument?

You don’t need an explanation. It could be any number of things but it’s not because he had a secret wrist injury. He wears that compression glove regularly when flying.

I’m so glad we have so many sports medicine physicians here to clarify that partial tears, inflammation, or injuries that preceed a full tear aren’t a thing.
