"Given his timetable for a return runs in the 3-to-4 week window, as the source indicated, it’s likely the Patriots will place Bruschi on season-ending injured reserve. With the urgency of having to win out to make the playoffs, and needing healthy bodies, the Pats don’t have the luxury of waiting for Bruschi’s injury to heal(Boston Globe)."
That injury looked bad, during the win over the Seahwaks. I actually thought he tore his ACL or something, but apparently it is not as bad as first thought. Still, with how little time is left in the season, the Patriots might put him on the IR. There is still some hope they won't, and he could play in the playoffs (if they make it), but my gut is telling me he is done for the year. If that is the case, and his season is over, I think his career is also over. He hasn't been himself the last two seasons, and he is basically (in my eyes) washed up. I really don't think here is a big difference between Seau and Bruschi anymore(other then my hatred for Seau). Bruschi has had a great career, but if his season is over, it is time for him to hang them up.
