I've been through this, big time, like could barely get out of bed for a month. It first happened when I was playing tennis. It happened in warm up, but I played a good two hours. It hurt like hell, but still, I could finish. By the next morning I couldn't move. The pain was like nothing I could ever describe. I'm not trying to compare football to tennis. The fact he finished a football game with that is incredible and that guy is super tough. I'm just saying it has probably gotten worse.
They say he needs surgery. It would shock me if the first epidural shot did enough to allow him to play. It generally takes a series, each helping a little more. Even with the first two shots, I still had to take some serious painkillers just to get around the house, and it was shooting down my leg just like his.
