Before he was carted off the field and into the locker room for X-rays, Graham's offensive teammates gathered around him with emotions running high. Graham then pointed to the loud, supportive crowd, signaling that he would be OK, but history tells us this injury could cause other problems.

Victor Cruz suffered a torn patellar tendon during Week 6 last season and missed the rest of the year. Between the recovery from that and a calf injury, he has yet to return. Doctors said at the time of Cruz's injury that tearing the patellar tendon is one of the worst things that can happen to a pass catcher. "It's worse than an isolated ACL," Dr. Steven Singleton of The Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colo., told Sporting News. "It takes longer to get that strength back. It would not be too uncommon to be stiff, less flexible and develop scar tissue."

It's smaller and more complicated. Plus it holds the kneecap in place. If the kneecap moves around, your knee will lock. ("Trick Knee")
 
Does it even matter? They will probably cut him this offseason because he has no dead cap hit. The offense didn't skip a beat without him.
 
He should sue the arbiter who sided with the NFL as him being a TE and not a WR even though the majority of his snaps were split out as a WR. Cost him a fuck ton of money he'll never get the chance to see.
 
Willson isn't great, but he's not a huge dropoff either. Plus he's probably a better blocker (I can't watch 22 people at once so I usually ignore TE blocks when I watch a football play). The Seahawks don't have a pass happy offense in which tight ends get thrown to twelve times a game anyway.
