“It was really alarming at first because I’ve experienced injury throughout my career, but it’s never been anything like this that could turn into something detrimental if it’s not taken care of,” he said. “It was frightening at first, but now I’m at ease with it.

I kind of wish these athletes would say something about all of these incredibly rare conditions hitting them at their physical peak...but I don't blame them for staying quiet.
