According to Adam Schefter, quarterback has officially been ruled out of Sunday's game against the with a left elbow injury. He tripped on the final play of the first half, bending his arm backward in a way that makes you want to immediately close the timeline.
If you are getting a terrible sense of deja vu, your memory works perfectly. Schefter quickly pointed out that the last time hurt this exact elbow, he missed four games.
The actual history is even more brutal. dislocated that same left elbow in Week 9 last year, missed three games, came back, and then re-injured it in Week 14 to end his season. Add in the knee and hamstring issues, and the guy only managed to survive seven games in 2025.
