The STRANGEST QUARTERBACK INJURY in New York Jets HISTORY

In light of the Aaron Rodgers injury and with the New York Jets facing the Dallas Cowboys this week, with these two worlds intersecting, let's talk about one of the craziest injuries to happen to a Jets quarterback that could only happen to a Jets quarterback. Because Ken O'Brien, in week 9 of the 1990 NFL season, during a game between the New York Jets and the Dallas Cowboys, injured his thumb... giving a high-five?

    I think the jets need some holy water sprinkle on ever QB on the roster

    I was at the game on September 12, 1999 (almost exactly 24 years before the Aaron Rodgers game). My friends had season tickets and invited me along. You could feel the air go out of the stadium when Vinny Testaverde left the game with what we learned was also a torn Achille's tendon. Backup Rick Mirer was also knocked out of that game after throwing two picks, leaving it up to punter Tom Tupa to take over, and he actually threw a pair of touchdowns. As you can guess, my friends immediately identified me as the jinx and I was never invited to attend a Jets game with them.

    Torn Achilles tendon is not just a serious injury, but one of the most painful sports injuries you can get.

    That ken o brien injury is like a qb hurting his gluten after a guy slapped his butt

    It’s an excellent video but as a Jets fan I am depressed. Thank you for quoting Dick Verneil which also took place in 1999😢. I do remember this game

    I guess Aaron Rodgers' complete tear of his Achilles tendon is just part of Jets lore. I immediately thought about Vinny Testaverde and Leon Johnson suffering season-ending injuries in their 1999 opener at home vs. the Patriots. Being reminded of Kyle Mackey's injury just makes me wonder what's really going on with that franchise. Bizarre.

    I still remember in the 83 draft the Jets fans wanted Marino and they ended up with KOB. The infamous Jets draft blunders video from years ago capped by the fans chanting "we want sapp!" but left with Brady the TE.

    That draw play. Some sorta primordial shovel pass. Kinda like how the progeny of the murderer read option

    Rodgers is 39. He suffered an injury that would take a younger man a year to recover from. IMO his career is over.

    namath had chronic bad knees. vinnie blew out his Achillies. o'brien just got beat up back there. pennington had a bad shoulder. even richard todd once took a hit from two guys that almost broke him in half. all just part of jet qb history. jets a true cursed franchise. on the bright side jets keep their first next year to use on some o line help.

    Add Joe Willie Namaths knees to the Jets history Those knees started it all

    Reminds me of when my father threw out his back he opened a newspaper (since you kinda shake it and vigorously open it).

    The 49ers Nick Bosa had bad things to say about the turf at Met Life stadium in 2020 after suffering a knee injury that sidelined him for the year.

    This reminds me of QB Gus Frerotte spraining his neck by head butting a goal post after a TD

    I’m not even a fan of the Jets (I don’t hate them, but they aren’t a team I care too much about) - but I feel so bad for them and their fans. And looking at the history of the team… same crap, different decade.

    Least he didnt bang his head on the wall and give himself a concussion

    A teammate separated his shoulder after a high five, happened 2nd game of his senior year, it was wild, wasnt even a hard high five

    O’Brien would be the last player wearing #7 to get injured celebrating at Giants Stadium.

  • @LordTeaboBaggins
    @LordTeaboBaggins

    At least Jets fans won’t have to worry about Rodgers doing worse than if you just spiked the ball on every play
