On August 3rd, back before training camp started, before the Ameer Abdullah #HypeTrain left the station, and before everyone fell in love with Zach Zenner, it was reported that Haloti Ngata had a non-football injury in the form of a strained hamstring and was expected to miss “about a week”.
It’s now the 4th week Ngata has been sidelined and I wanted to cover the recovery window for hamstring strains and what that means going forward. When it comes to hamstring strains there are three grades of increasing severity and it’s important to note that everybody heals at a different rate.
