Look For Clayborn To Return In June

October 1st, 2012

Joe’s never heard of a player in any sport blowing out his knee without the injured leg on the ground, but that’s how rockstar general manager Mark Dominik described Adrian Clayborn’s season-ending knee injury.

Chatting on the Buccaneers Radio Network before Sunday’s game, Dominik said Clayborn’s legs weren’t on the ground when he was hurt and it was caused by freakish leg whipping action amid other players.

Ouch!

NFL.com reports had Clayborn tearing both his ACL and MCL.

Dominik says Clayborn will be ready for surgery soon and should be on the field for June 2013 minicamp.

    Yeah, if you watch the replay, that’s exactly how it happened. It was on GMC’s sack of Romo, and Clayborne got his leg trapped between Romo and the Tackle. It looked really bad.

    It would be nice to have he and Bowers and Bennett healthy at the same time.

    Hopefully it won’t affect him when he returns.

    I predict Clayborn comes back over 300lbs and makes the move inside to DT….and we draft a new RE.
