Another Torn ACL

DE Derek Rivers was expected to contribute to the Pats this year. The 3rd round pick from Youngstown State was having a good camp until he suffered a torn ACL during a joint practice with the Houston Texans.

Players are being injured at an alarming rate around the league. Rivers was hurt during a kickoff drill. Every day, we are hearing of players being placed on IR and there is still one preseason game left.

When teams make their final cuts, more players will be ruled out for the season due to injury.
