The expected 6-8 week recovery still gives him time with the 4 week suspension to start the season, but it's definitely a big setback.

Seems he can't catch a break. I tried buying him this offseason but owner wouldn't sell. Not sure what this does to his longterm value but with the short shelf life of RBs, it can't be good.

Really that fast eh!? I thought a torn meniscus was a longer recovery, isnt that what took AP out last season?

Just going off of a RotoWire blurb: "Meniscus tears often require a six-to-eight-week recovery time, but depending on the severity, that timetable could be prolonged..."

This is correct, AP had a slightly torn meniscus that just needed to be 'touched up' but still cost him the season. I haven't heard how bad Dixon's tear was but if they are saying 6-8 weeks, I'm assuming its just a touch up also.

Basically a roster clogger at this point. Very unfortunate.

AP also had a "locked knee" when he got injured where part of the meniscus slips into the knee joint and prevents you from bending it (which is why you saw him helped off the field with his leg straightened) that's not very common and while I don't know how bad Dixon's tear is, I can't imagine it's quite that bad

Also APs procedure was based on an emphasis of saving the cartilage for the future so he wouldn't have problems later in life, honestly if he wanted to Dixon could just get the damaged part removed and the recovery time would be 3 to 4 weeks but there's really no reason to do that in a guy that young, my guess is they wait and see where he is once the suspension is up and see how well West is playing before deciding on how soon they want to bring him back

I think this benefits West more than it does Woodhead.

Would that make Joe Williams the 1.01 in rookie drafts? Sarcasm font

I agree. Despite his receiving chops, Woodhead's contributions as a runner are suspect.
