Jason Pierre-Paul Could Face 5-6 Month Recovery
6 years agoThere are concerns that Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul (neck) has a fractured vertebrae in his neck following a car accident last Thursday. Doctors will review his scans in the coming days, but JPP would be facing a five- to six-month recovery if he needs surgery. That'd likely mean he'd miss most, if not all, of the 2019 season. The 30-year-old had 12.5 sacks, his most since 2014 with the Giants, in his first full season with Tampa last year. Losing the pass-rusher for the entire 2019 season would be a huge blow to the team's already suspect pass rush.
