When Jake Butt was drafted by the Denver Broncos in 2017, the team knew about his torn ACL that he suffered in Michigan’s bowl game. Denver decided to shut him down his rookie year so that he can recover and rehab from the injury.
He was able to see the field for three games in 2018 before another ACL injury shut him down for the remaining 13 games of last season. Having two ACL injuries in the span of a year and a half is not easy for a player.
Vic Fangio talked to the media on Monday and discussed a bit about Jake Butt’s unfortunate recovery situation.
