Manziel left Saturday night’s game against Mississippi with what looked like
the worst kind of knee injury: That non-contact, no-one-touched-me,
ouch-this-hurts knee grabber – yes, the worst kind.
But don’t
worry: Manziel seems fine. Not to say we weren’t worried.
The injury
occurred as Manziel was rolling to his left to deliver a pass in Ole Miss
territory; he threw the pass and then crumbled to the turf, clutching his knee,
writing in pain as Texas A&M’s medical staff ran to the scene.
Bad, right?
But Manziel returned to the field, albeit with a brace, shortly after getting
the once-over by A&M’s medical personnel. After a few minutes of sideline
jogging, Manziel returned and seemed back up to his old tricks, helping lead
the Aggies on a touchdown drive – giving A&M a 14-7 lead with less than a
minute left in the first quarter.
Remember:
Manziel tweaked his knee during last November’s win against Missouri. Could
this be a relapse? Well, maybe. Probably not, since he’s almost a year removed
from a fairly unserious knee injury. He’s fine. Relax. Resume your Heisman
campaign and national championship push.
