Two of those surgeries on the ankle - the tightrope procedure - are quickly becoming routine now. Not much different then an MCL sprain. Jury is out on his hip but his ankles are fine.


Only one NFL player has had the tightrope surgery.....

I wouldn’t call that routine.

NFL players would rather sit out 6-8 weeks rather than be cut on at this point.

That could change.

It hasn’t yet and certainly is not routine.

Tua will be taken in the first round, even if it is just a team taking a flier on him

Also pretty hard to be routine when at the point Tua had the surgery in 2018 it was only available to University of Alabama athletes. Routine requires a hell of a lot of surgeries. More than can be done in a year.

The deep out isn't all about arm strength. In fact it's considerably more about timing. Throw it on time and accurately, it's hard to stop. Big arm strength just allows mistakes to be covered easier. Burrows are is every bit as good as Brady's and Brees. Again they haven't had much trouble
