Jason Peters Re-Ruptures Achilles

In what a may be the most "doh!" injury story of all-time, Jason Peters has re-ruptured his achilles, according to CSN's Derrick Gunn.


Peters first injured his achilles during workouts in Texas on March 27th, and had surgery soon after. Coach Andy Reid said there was a chance he could return in 2012.


No chance now.


Apparently Peters was using his Roll-A-Bout, a device he has used to help him get around. The device broke, and Peters 340 pound frame slammed face first into the floor, re-repturing  his achilles. 


If I could make a suggestion to his doctors, it would be to put him in a bubble. Now, his career is in jeopardy. 


On the bright side, Peters joins the Ridiculous Injury Hall Of Fame, with Sammy Sosa for hurting his back while sneezing, Felix Pie's twisted testicle, and Orlando Brown for being hit in the eye with a penalty flag.


Jason Peters, first ballot RIHOFer. Has a nice ring to it.
